The Spring Hitting Camp is a great chance for players in grades 8-12 to prepare for tryouts and get hitting instruction from the UWF coaching staff. In addition, it will be a great opportunity for potential student-athletes to see the University and interact with the UWF coaching staff. We will cover hitting and break down each player’s swing at Jim Spooner Field. This camp will cover all the basics of having a complete swing and we will take batting practice under the lights on the field and get to use the new UWF Hitting Facility. West Florida has recently had some of its best years offensively, 2010, 2011 and 2016 marks two of the top three offensive seasons since 1995. The Argos set marks in RBI’s, runs scored, and batting average on its way to their 1st NCAA National Championship. In 2013 UWF lead the GSC in Homeruns and ranked 2nd in homeruns for a season. In 2018 season the Argonauts put up the best year offensively since the 2011 National Championship season with a .317 batting average, 377 runs, and 101 doubles.

This year we will also offer the opportunity to provide Diamond Kinetic Metrics. The first session and 1th session will include using the bat knob sensor to provide you with information regarding your swing including metrics like “Max Barrel Speed, Applied Power, Hand Speed, ETC).
