Spring Structure
Our Spring NW Futures Fastpitch season is built with one goal in mind: development. We want every athlete to truly understand the sport, grow their skills, and build real confidence, not just move inning to inning.
The season opens with a three week training period that includes two practices per week and three skills camps hosted by The Yard. This dedicated block gives players the space they need to learn fundamentals, explore positions, and feel comfortable before stepping into competition. All camps are included in your registration price.
Starting in Week 4, teams shift into a weekly rhythm of one practice and one game. Games are development based, meaning coaches are asked to coach on the field, walk athletes through situations, and explain plays as they happen. This hands-on structure supports learning in real time and helps players understand the why behind every moment.
Throughout the season, athletes continue building fundamentals while revisiting game moments in a supportive, instructional environment. By slowing the game down and focusing on teaching, we create clarity, confidence, and meaningful growth for every player who steps on the field. As the season progresses, so will each athlete’s skill, game awareness, and belief in their ability to compete and grow.
