WE HAVE JUST LAUNCHED A BRAND NEW ONLINE SHOP

The objective in setting this up is:

To provide exactly was you need for your school sport competitions at each age (Primary to Secondary)
To help you avoid purchasing things that will take up space in your equipment shed and never get used
To help save you money by sourcing quality products at great prices
Check it out HERE, and get in touch if you have any questions

ONLINE PDs FOR TEACHERS & SUPPORT STAFF

To ensure we cater for schools running the two sports at different times across the state, we have locked in online PDs for both T-Ball and Softball at the beginning of every term for 2024. These sessions are specific to the School Sport Victoria (SSV) Primary competitions at District, Division, Region and State levels.

As we know, school teams work towards achieving success at the State level, but providing a great experience at each competition prior to this is just as important to us. In fact, it really all starts in the school yard, so our PDs covers games and drills you can use to get your team ready, and information to help teachers and convenors ensure you have everything required to support your team on game day and/or run the competition.

The PDs will take you through:

The differences between Fully Loaded Softbal and traditional Softball and why the changes were made
Equipment and field set up requirements
How to facilitate the game
Fielding positions including details about pitching and catching
Making 'outs' in the field
Batting / Hitting
Loaded bases and base running
Scoring the game
Coaching tips for strategy, game play and skill development
Resources available
