Brie Brooks, Head Softball Coach at Missouri State University-West Plains (MSU-WP), has announced two softball summer camp opportunities. These camps are designed for young softball players looking to improve their skills, compete, and learn from coaches with extensive collegiate playing and coaching experience across NCAA divisions and locations. 

 

The Grizzly Softball Camps are intended to provide young athletes with high-level instruction, directly from the Grizzly coaching staff, in a positive and competitive environment while helping players develop the skills needed to succeed on the field. All camps are open to all entrants regardless of skill level and are limited only by number, age, grade level, and/or gender.

The camps are divided into two events: Overnight Prospect Camp and High School Day Camp. All campers will receive instruction and participate in activities on the field at Jimmie Carroll Sports Complex located at 540 E. Olden Street.
