CAMP UPDATE

MMHS SOFTBALL CAMP HAS BEEN MOVED TO A LATER DATE

Enrollments are still open for camp. We will be moving the date to after the holiday season. Due to low enrollment numbers we are not able to reserve the Field House and will look for later dates closer to our season when the weather will allow us to use the MMHS home field and the Field House if needed.

Parents who have already enrolled their child in the camp will get moved to the new date, no need to enroll them again. Camp details will remain the same and I will post a new date after the holiday season.

Thank you for your patience and please stay updated here and on our Instagram page @mm.softball for updates.

OPEN GYM GROUP TIMES

Ladies,

Great first week of training last week! We (coaches) felt like we had a great turn out and it was followed by great effort and participation. Week one in the books and now its time to split up the masses. Splitting the groups will allow the coaches to work more one on one with each athlete and help us get to know what the athletes need. Yes, it takes us down from 2 hours to 1 hour each day. So, what does that mean?

1 hour training sessions are very specific and filled with lots and lots of coaching. Here are some expectations for the hour together:

1. Be on time
2. Stay focused 
3. Do your best
4. Ask questions
5. Hustle no matter what you are doing!

Ladies it is very important to make sure you all show up to these sessions because these are going to be great 1 on 1 opportunities to be seen and helped by coaches in preparation for tryouts.


Here are the designated groups,

5-6:30p, ALL RETURNING PLAYERS FROM 2019 SEASON

• If you played last year on any team you will be attending this session
• We will make adjustments based off of what coaches feel is best for your development on whether to leave you in this group or shift you to a different group

6-7:00p, ALL NEW ATHLETES THAT DID NOT PLAY IN 2019 SEASON

• If you did not play  last year you will be attending this session
• Which included, all new freshman or any grade level who is interested in making a the team this year and did not play last year
• We will make adjustments based off of what coaches feel is best for your development on whether to leave you in this group or shift you to a different group

See you all this week!

2020 Season

Parents and Athletes,

Welcome back to the new school year! For those of you who will be new to the MMHS softball program I am looking forward to meeting you during our open gym this year.

Open gym is our pre season training for the season and it is very important for those of you interested in trying out this year to attend.  Pre season training is a great way for the girls to get acclimated to the structures of the program and is a huge confidence builder for the upcoming tryouts which allows the girls to be 10 steps ahead when season begins. So again, I cannot stress enough the importance of attendance and participation during our pre season training, it definitely gives all of the athletes who attend a leg up on those who did not put the work in before season and tryouts.

I have posted the game schedule for this year on Instagram and a full schedule is on our live calendar on the softball website (mmsoftball.blogspot.com).  There is also a running agenda on the left side of the home page of the website for an easy list view of what we have ahead for the pre season and season. Please get acquainted with the calendar, you will notice that you are able to select the month and see times, locations, games, practices, etc. You are also able to export the calendar to your personal calendar, please know updates will not automatically update your personal calendar if you decide to export the schedule.

Parents, I will be holding a pre tryout meeting that will be mandatory for one parent or guardian to attend with their athlete that will be trying out for the 2020 season. This meeting will be held on JANUARY 29th @ 6pm, location TBD. Please stay updated on the website calendar and Instagram (@mm.softball) for all updates. 

What is ahead?

• Open gym, October 2nd, 5-7p @ MMHS Field House
• Go to the website at mmsoftball.blogspot.com and get familiar with the calendar

If you have questions you can message or email me directly through the Instagram page. You may also comment on the bottom of this post.

Parents—

You are welcome to attend and observe tryouts. I ask that you please do not talk to your athlete during this time. If you need to speak to your athlete or ask a question, save those things for after tryouts at 7pm.

Also, we are not having a sophomore team this year. We are not able to get enough games for the girls throughout the season and we will be moving the sophomore team up to JV. Varsity player will no longer be JV/Varsity they will solely be the Varsity team and the JV team will be staffed just as we would staff the sophomore team.

This will give the girls the opportunity to play more games and face better competition throughout the season. This will also keep both teams training together and allow us to be more involved as coaches.

When the teams are finalized, I will be putting together a tournament team.  This team will be traveling to our opening tournament in St George, Utah from March 7th after school and will return March 9th following the tournament. They will stay together as a team in a hotel with coaches as chaperones and will travel to and from games on the bus. All girls will be required to ride the bus to St. George and are able to ride home with family following the tournament. (Parents will need to let me know if they are taking their child with them after the tournament.)

To start the season there are a few yearly fees that are going to be due by March 6th to the finance office.

The fees are:
- $140 participation fee
- $100 St George tournament- only the tournament team will be paying this fee.
(We will also be taking a parent vote during the parent meeting to make sure we are all in support of traveling to
St George for our opening tournament.)
- $60 player pack fee that will be covered by the softball program's fundraising for 2019 season. If your athlete decides to not participate in the fundraising this $60 fee will be due when their player pack arrives.

For the season your athlete will receive in their player pack 3 practice shirts, game socks, game belts, a black crewneck sweatshirt, and a maroon compression shirt. We are also offering a reward and incentive to the team with game day jackets for their participation and hard work during our fundraising.

Your athlete will need the following for season:

1. Black and White game pants
2. Black long sleeve compression shirt for game days, their player pack will provide the maroon long sleeve compression shirt
3. A white helmet
4. Glove
5. Bat
6. Bat bag for practice and game days (this will carry their equipment)

We will cover these items in greater detail during our parent meeting on February 28th @ 6:30 in the team room at Maple Mountain High School.

I am looking forward to working with everyone this season!

Thank you,

Jackie
