The Team

"As we began the end of summer madness that is softball tryout season, my daughter was a bundle of nerves. I put on my parenting "A game" and had pep talk after pep talk with her about thinking positively and showing coaches her willingness to work hard, most of which was met with a mumbled "I know mom" and the occasional eye roll. She is 10 and is at an age where most things I say are met this way. Then I signed her up for the pre-tryout clinics at Amanda Werth Softball and the change in her was very clear. Amanda and her team not only gave her the tips, tricks and repetition needed to up her physical game, but they also instilled in her a language of positivity and an air of confidence.


Softball is as much a mental game as it is a physical one. Amanda and her team get it and they strive and succeed in creating a coachable, positive mindset in their clients. I witnessed it first hand. My nervous daughter, after 2 clinics with Amanda Werth, thought differently about herself and the game, voicing the desire to work harder and be more coachable especially in her times of doubt. This was the greatest lesson I could ever hope for her to learn and the reason we put her in softball to begin with. Strong female role models are important at any age, but especially for the "tween" set. Amanda and her amazing team have provided that for my daughter and many others and I cannot thank them enough. If you have a daughter who loves to play softball I would HIGHLY recommend sending her to one of Amanda's clinics, she will have fun, learn more about softball and come away with some wonderful life lessons as well."
