7th & 8th Graders Join Us for Class
The 6-week, Spring Clinic is designed to teach basics for new players while sharpening skills for seasoned ones. Each class has a different focus. No matter your skill level, we tailor the coaching to match your experience!
Players can sign up for individual classes, however it’s highly recommended that they book the full 6-weeks in order to get the most out of the program.
