Camry and most of the other FLASH members(our girl's fastpitch tourname
nt team) had the opprotunity to attend the Utah State Fastpitch Softball Clinic over the Martin Luther King Holiday. Jeff and our friend Rob McMinn have been looking forward to this weekend for a few weeks. They have actually been planning strategies for this upcoming season since this past season. Let's just say it is like watching to kids on Christmas! Video of the training camp was taken, of course for the girl's enjoyment and the two coaches to learn from. This is Camry's favorite sport so of course she shares her dad's excitement.

The camp was very helpful. The first day was spent working on their fielding techniques. Camry enjoys playing second and short stop, so she worked with that group for the day. The second day they worked on their hitting. Camry was excited to use her new Cat Osterman Composite bat she got for her birthday. The Coaches of Utah State where great! They took the time to walk around and work with each girl individually. Let's just hope they remember all they have learned, as this year we move up to the 14U Division.
Camry also decided she wanted to play on a EIV Team, which is the Eastern I
daho Volleyball competitive league. She made the Franklin Middle School Volleyball team this past fall and she really enjoyed herself, though she had never played before I thought she did very well. We had our first parents meeting, which Jeff attended and met her coach. She starts practicing this week on Tuesdays and Thursdays. We are not to excited about the tiny little shorts she will have to wear, but I bought her a warm-up suit that we will cover her up in before games and after. She will play in 5-6 tournaments, which will be in Idaho Falls almost every Saturday March - May! YIPPEEE!Needless to say our Spring and Summer weekends are packed with tournaments, but we love to watch Camry and support her! If you are interested in coming up to see her, let me know and we will let you know when she plays.

Welome to the blogging world! Good luck to Camry in softball (our favorite too) and volleyball. We have not doubt she'll be awesome!
Blogging is the greatest. Great first couple postings. I have a feeling this is going to be all about Camry, which is great because we all know she is the coolest of the Ericksons ;)
