Hmmm? Marketing verbage...

What do you read this to mean?

Mini Prospect camps~

Mini as in small sized camps?
And/or
Recruiting prospects who are young?


Whether it's called a skills camp or a PROSPECT Camp make no mistake eyes are on young prospects.
Yep, Connections can start being made at an early age!

reads as a camp to teach younger, but also raise funds for program.

 

[Vertigo]

I read it to mean very short sessions - not a whole day camp. I’m going by the session times they have listed.

Maybe they're opening a league for midgets?

These types of practice sessions could be a great opportunity for some mid week face time with the coaches in a smaller setting. I am sure these coaches "encourage" certain semi local prospects to attend to get a better look and have conversations to get to know each other better.

I held back on saying this.

UNC, my alma mater, is having them. My DD really wants to go.

"Uh, I can't really drive you 7 hours to Chapel Hill for you to do a 45 minute pitching clinic with 50 local girls"

DD went to one of them last year after being contacted on Sept 1 by the school. Was super weird, 3 or so young players 10-12 that were totally learning the game, 2 recruiting age girls. The clinic was run by an assistant coach that was in contact with DD and a couple of current SDSU players.

Last year they called them fielding and hitting clinics, seems like just a name change.

If you get asked to go, I think it would be worth it.

Yeah agree weird.

... an interesting name change!

This type of verbiage change can confuse intended purpose of what the camp May entail. Flyer does not say skills camp
Does say open to any and all within age perimeters.
