The clinic turnout wasn't as we had hoped. We had three boys and three girls show up. The positive side of this was it was small, we could individually work with them and we can learn their names easier. The two middle school girls knew a lot more than the rest of them so it was easier to work with them. The one girl was a pitcher so the other assistant worked with her while we worked fundamentals with the three little boys and the one girl.
We handed out fliers to the primary and middle schools, where our targets were, we spoke and handed out our fliers to the youth coaches and they told us that they were going to sign up all of their players, which didn't happen and didn't really surprise us. We found out later that we were also competing with youth basketball which happened to be the same weekend as the clinic.
We definitely had more turn out this year than we did last year...
We also found out that our center fielder and catcher probably won't turn out this season. We're hoping that they change their minds and they won't actually decide until it practice begins.
Practice starts next Monday, March 1. Hope for sunshine.
