RH, Jimmy Kolaitis once talked to my dd when he was at Southern Alabama about playing there.

In camps, the format is clear so you pay while knowing what you are getting into. Personally, any group larger than 3 or 4 significantly limits the amount of time any one player gets instructed. I mostly do groups of 2. Sometimes, I do a group of 3 but my fee is so reasonable that no one would complain. (Mostly free.)

This is my opinion and I don't want to offend anyone. I've done enough of that lately on this site. There are so many EXPERTS out there that don't know their ..... from a hole in the ground. To me, it appears that they are in it for the money while, at the same time, are not learning new things. I run into it all of the time in HS ball. I rarely, if ever, see a hitting coach attend a game. How are they helping their hitter if they don't know what happens in live situations? Well, I'll get off the soap box now.

the place we do pitching in Wyckoff does group lessons for 2-6 softball players scaled $50-$30 per person for 45 minutes. they recommend 4 weeks but you could do just one if you wanted. I like it there. good vibes.

I thought about it particularly for being able to just get teammates on the same page, have some professional instruction (we're not a professional team, just school stuff, and it'd probably be helpful to have some real baseline instruction to build on). Plus it gets them reps during the cold months.

So yeah, $50/hr is definitely something I'd consider. Not forever, but a handful of times especially when we have nowhere else to really swing? seems reasonable.

No way I would pay that fee for group hitting lessons.

I pay $40 per 1/2 hour for my daughter. We go about every other week. For every paid hitting lesson she is also hitting 5-6 times in a cage in between lessons. I pay $100 per month for use of the indoor cage, there is a dome about 5 miles from my house. They got 18 batting tunnels, and you can get cage every day if you wanted for that $100 per month fee.

Pretty sure the most I paid for a group clinic was a Wasserman overhand throwing clinic. That clinic was 2-3 hours long if I remember correctly.

We go to ChallengeU on the other side of town. Small place, but Softball only, all women. A couple of kids from our school go there, and the results have been good. My daughter's first pitching coach is coaching with Columbia now.
