LFA Summer Camp 2009

.
April is always an exciting time of year for Mariners baseball and UW fastpitch softball. The smell of the new grass after being cut. Hot dogs roasting in the ball park. Talks of Ichiro contending for another All Star season performance. Good times for kids and adults preparing for ball games. April always brings me new talent to work with at LFA Summer Fastpitch Camps.

I met Melissa Musser on facebook fastpitch friends and soon she enrolled her daughter Carly for Fastpitch Pitching lessons. There was something about Carly that got my attention. Tall and a coaches player because every instruction I gave her was followed by, ok or yes sir. I really just thought she wanted to improve a little more on her fastball for Little League. Then 2 months goes by and while at Summer Camp I noticed Carly throwing a little faster, learning new pitches rapidly and almost perfect in the strike zone on all her spots/ She is good at listening to every word from assistant camp coach Kelli Bornander, starting pitcher for Northern State University. Coach Kelly: Carly reminds me of me when I was 14. Tall and really wanting to be the best pitcher I could be. I think she is having fun and the fact that I can show her my college skills really motivated Carly to look to the future and share my dream.

Coach Adam: It took only a few months to give Carly some new skills. My approach is the same for everyone I train..." I will try to pull the potential out of the person, later the athlete will respond with improvement." I will see her a couple times a week to do this. If she wants to be a champion she will train on her own time with her new skills. What goes on when she leaves camp is her own doing. I like what she has accomplished.

.

Carly is committed to training with her dad, Brian almost every day.

Melissa Musser: "When Carly puts her mind to something she wants to do I think she puts her perfectionist side into it and really strives to do her best. A bit shy, Carly doesn't like to look bad at what she does. Adam has her on an additional 1,000 calorie uptake each day, this includes more complex carbs and high protien foods. She does not need to eat like her friends do, she needs to eat like a champion athlete."

Carly: " I worked hard training with my dad each day, throwing up to 150 to 200 pitches a day with proper breaks and rest, I don't want to over do it. I use my training journal allot. If I don't understand something I am doing wrong, I look in my Training Journal and my pitching notes from Camp are there. I just follow the Important Keys to the pitch and it works. I like training with coach Kelli, starting pitcher from Northern State University and I want to pitch like her. One day I will come back from college on summer break and help out at Summer Camps."

mom-Melissa:"She's turned into this new kid since she's been working with Adam. She actually has a swagger now, and that head strong, vibrant, excited kid I used to know is back, and you helped give that to her. When you pointed her out last night as most improved, I could see her whole body language change. She may not have shown it, but you made her day. "
