CLINICS

The AAFA is committed to helping athletes develop their skills, build confidence, and take their game to the next level. Our clinics provide focused training in key areas of the game, led by experienced coaches who are passionate about player growth. Whether you're looking to refine your pitching, sharpen your catching, or strengthen your all-around skills, our clinics offer a supportive environment for players of all levels.

Our clinics are open to AAFA registered members only, providing focused training in key areas of the game.

Please note that due to venue availability our space is limited. However, in the event that the demand leads to a waitlist large enough to add an additional session, we will do our best to accommodate as many players as possible. 

Check out the details below for our Pitching, Catching, and Skills Clinics. 

Follow us on Facebook or Instagram and keep an eye on your inbox for announcements on when registration is open for each.

Our Pitching Clinics are designed to help players refine their mechanics, increase velocity, and build confidence on the mound. Led by our highly skilled pitching coach—who played at the university level in the U.S.—these sessions provide focused instruction tailored to each athlete’s experience level.

Important to note that Pitchers are REQUIRED to bring their own catcher. This could be a parent, sibling, or teammate. Youth catchers are required to wear a faceguard. 

We offer three clinics per year, each consisting of six one-hour sessions:

• Fall Clinic - Begins in October
• Winter Clinic - Begins in January
• Spring Clinic - Begins in March, leading right into opening weekend

To ensure players get the most out of their training, we offer four tiers of instruction:

• Beginner - Introduction to pitching fundamentals. 
• Pre-Intermediate - Building consistency and control. 
• Intermediate - Refining mechanics and developing movement. 
• Advanced - Fine-tuning speed, accuracy, and game strategy.

Our Catching Clinics are designed to develop the essential skills needed to excel behind the plate. Led by experienced coaches, these sessions focus on stance, framing, blocking, throwing mechanics, and game strategy—helping catchers build confidence and take control of the game.

We offer two clinics per year, each consisting of six one-hour sessions:

• Fall Clinic - Begins in October
• Winter Clinic - Begins in January

To provide targeted instruction, we offer three tiers of training:

• Beginner - Fundamentals of stance, receiving, and footwork
• Intermediate - Improving blocking, framing, and throwdowns

Our Skills Clinics are designed to help athletes sharpen their all-around game, focusing on the fundamentals that make great players. These sessions cover throwing, fielding grounders and pop-flies, batting, and endurance training, ensuring players not only maintain but develop their skills in the off-season, which improves the confidence they need to excel on the field.

We offer two clinics per year, each consisting of six 90-minute sessions:
