KIDS SKILLS CAMP (Grades 3 – 6)
Our Kids Skills Camp will focus on the fundamentals of educating, motivating and improving skills of young softball athletes. It will be led by Head Coach Kris Ganeff, her Notre Dame Fighting Irish softball coaching staff and current ND players. This is a unique opportunity to spend quality time learning valuable softball skills as well as life lessons from coaches and players who bleed the Fighting Irish legacy, community and shared commitment to excellence.
Campers will have an opportunity to have a sit-down conversation with the ND staff and players while they consume a box dinner provided by the coaching staff.
Parents will also be invited to participate and ask questions about softball, Notre Dame or other topics.
Additionally,
each camper will receive a T-Shirt at check-in
and will have an autograph and photo opportunity.
