*** We ask that each pitcher provide a catcher. This could be a teammate, guardian, or friend. This is to help provide a good flow and experience for the pitching camp. The catcher does NOT need to register. If they are 17 or younger and did not participate with Fargo Area Fastpitch in the 2023 season, they will need a guardian to sign a waiver before the camp. For the waiver, please email [email protected].

Intermediate Pitching:
This camp is focused on the mechanics specific to age level. We will work towards building confidence through developing proper mechanics and command. This camp is recommended for those that have basic to intermediate pitching experience yet may need more work on mechanics such as foot placement, ball control, and follow through. Must provide your own catcher.

Advanced Pitching:
We will be focusing on adding spin pitches and velocity. The spins portion will focus on the mechanics & IQ to each pitch. We will incorporate drills to focus on adding Velocity. This camp is recommended for those that are ready to take the next step in their game. Must provide your own catcher.
