Are you confused about Pitching? Do you need to help your pitchers become mentally stronger? Could you use some great drills to help your pitcher get faster, or have better pitch movement and control? Have you ever wondered why your pitchers look great in practice and then struggle during games? If you’ve asked yourself these questions and more, then this over 3-hour session, presented live at the National Fastpitch Coaches Association (NFCA) convention, is exactly what you need!

Elite pitching instructor Cindy Bristow presents this very detailed clinic on Pitching that includes: video of every drill mentioned, downloadable print ready notes, and tons of fantastic information.

You’ll learn how to simplify what you teach your pitchers and the important difference between simple and easy. This video will guide you through the world of Pitching by showing you what’s really important, why it’s important and HOW you can lead your pitchers to success!

It's all presented by Cindy in her easy-to-understand manner with a complete and thorough verbal and visual explanation each step of the way.

If you have been looking for a program to help you accurately score a softball game, your search is over!  The NFCA Softball Scoring Seminar is a new, useful tool for the fastpitch softball community. During every fastpitch softball game, someone is behind the scenes keeping score. It is our goal at the NFCA to develop relevant programs to grow the game and "How do we score a softball game?" is a question continually asked by many people involved in the sport. We created this course to provide an avenue for interested parties to learn to score correctly.  This project originated from our NFCA All-American committees as consistent and accurate scoring is critical to ensure a quality selection process.  It is designed for coaches, sports information personnel, players, parents, and anyone else who wants to learn how to accurately score a game.   We invite you to watch this collection of videos and presentations created by various scoring experts from across the country.
