Pitching / Catching Clinics

The starting dates and times for the Spring Season Pitching & Catching Clinics have not yet been determined.  Based on the current weather, they will not start until the last week in April.  Please continue to check the website for updated information.

The SWLL offers free pitching and catching clinics on Saturday mornings during the season from 8:30am - 10:00am.  The clinics are conducted by SWLL coaches and focus on the basics of throwing and pitching mechanics as we as basic catching mechanics (depending on participation by catchers).

The clinics are held at the SWLL Complex over next to the batting cages.  In the event of rain or extreme cold weather (under 35 degrees), the clinic for that week would be cancelled.  Assume that if it's raining on Saturday monrings between 7:00am - 8:00am that the clinic would be called off.

The clinics are recommended for all players in the Farm, Minor A, Minor AA, and Major baseball divisions.  Depending on attendance, we are able to break the players into groups based on ability for advanced training.

For more information (or if you are a coach interested in helping out), please contact Pete Romaniello at promaniello@cox.net.
