The ASA and ISC would like to thank all those that have applied

Students have the opportunity to work with USA Softball JuniorMen’s
National Team Pitching Coach Gary Mullican or former USA NationalTeam
pitcher Michael White.  The program at this time is strictly
a videoanalysis program.  Applicants will be asked to submit
a videotape every 30-60days, depending on age and skill level.
  One of the two instructors will thenevaluate the video and
make corrections/suggestions, which will be communicatedback
to the applicant.  The instructors will also supply the applicant
withdrills that will help to improve their overall mechanics.
 This program is opento players of all skill levels, from raw
beginners to more advanced pitchers. There is no cost for the
program other than normal postage cost to submit thevideo.  Funding
for the program is being provided jointly by the ASA and ISC.
 

 

Applications are available for download on the USA Softball website
at www.usasoftball.comunder the Junior Men’s National Team folder
and the ISC website at www.iscfastpitch.comunder the Developmental

links will have a program application and a sample email analysis
