opinions on the softball factory camps

any opinions on their invite camps $3000 is a lot of money for a weekend in my opinion, anyone else care to share......

 

I can tell you first hand....

If the kid can play, it is gonna open allot of doors....

I have worked the Softball Factory events for over three years now, all over the country. Excellent instruction, challenging format, tremendous coaching and top rated facilities... I have worked with the National team staff, NPF players, as well as numerous top level coaches.

They get great numbers as far as participation....
but only approx 5% of the kids that attend have the ability to play at the next level... and that includes D1 - D3, JUCO, NAIA....

The Softball Factory held an event last Sunday in Raleigh. Approx 60 kids signed up... There were maybe 6 that might play someday on a college roster...

So I ask the question again...

Can she play?

 

you saw her play she was the last batter #92 whats your opinion?

 

Not trying to answer for Wndmillr but you can't credibly apply the same prediction to an individual that you can to a group.

Every player has potential. My opinion of a player could easily make that player work harder or just as easily make that player complacent. For example, I could tell a player she won't make it; that might make her work harder to prove me wrong—or much worse, she might give up. On the other hand, if I tell her she's one of the 6%, that might be the end of any serious effort.

I think you're asking the wrong person. Your DD is the one to ask. At present she IS one of the 6%.

 

public board

I'm not gonna comment on this board publicly about anyone

I did answer the question privately.

My question to all that attended..

What did you see???

 

?

Where does the 3K come in? I was not there hate I missed it, looks like it was more like a few hundred dollars, what am I missing?

 

First of all... the fee schedule is as follows..

Week long camps, Vero Beach Florida at Dodgertown.. 3000 Includes rooms , meals.. Great facilities... I have done a couple of them..
High Level competition...

The one day stuff ranges from 495.00 - 99.00, depending on video programs you
purchase...

 

reasonable

Sounds reasonable, like coach said if she can play?

 

Wow, I am so glad my daughters are done with college. I could have never afforded something like that for them. What a heavy burden to have to bear as a parent.

I am not saying that it isn't an excellent venue as I don't know. Thankfully both my daughters were able to play softball on scholarship without too many high-expense events.
