Softball has always more than just a game to me, more than a fun activity to do on the weekends. Softball has given me the best friends and strongest community of my life. It’s shown me direction given me the tools to accomplish anything I set my mind to.
Our goal at Olivia Watkins Softball Camps is to bring that community, that passion, and that purpose to young girls all over the country, one town, one school, one player at a time.
We provide camps free of charge for anyone interested in learning more about the sport and having a lot of fun!
