<br />Dear European Softballers,<br /> <br />The ESF will be holding its first-ever European Slowpitch Softball Clinic from Friday evening, June 30 through Sunday, July 2 in Zagreb, hosted by the Croatian Softball Federation.<br /> <br />The clinic will be aimed at players, coaches and umpires interested in learning more about Slowpitch rules, techniques and tactics, and how the game differs from Fastpitch.<br />One aim of the clinic is to help European countries to build domestic Slowpitch leagues and attract more players to the sport. But another aim will be to help countries prepare for European Slowpitch Championship and Cup competition, either now or in the future. So the clinic will look at Slowpitch both from a recreational and a competitive point of view.<br /> <br />Topics to be covered will include:<br />--Slowpitch rules (where they differ from Fastpitch).<br />--Slowpitch umpiring -- particularly calling balls and strikes.<br />--Slowpitch pitching techniques and strategy.<br />--Slowpitch hitting techniques.<br />--Offensive strategy in Slowpitch.<br />--Defensive strategy in Slowpitch.<br />--Ideas for developing Slowpitch for recreational and competitive players.<br /> <br />The course will begin with an introductory classroom session on Friday evening, June 30, and will continue with classroom and field sessions on Saturday and Sunday, ending by mid-afternoon on Sunday. More details about hotel options, transport etc will be available shortly. <br /> <br />The course will be offered free of charge.<br /> <br />If anyone from your Federation is interested in attending the course, please ask them to contact ESF Development Director Pavel Prachar on
