Softball is mainly an anaerobic sport. It requires explosive movements
from quick bursts of energy. Because of this, certain conditioning
principles and methods should be used for training, such as:
· Plyometrics
· Sprint
and form running mechanics
· Metabolic
training
· Agility
and reaction drills
· Core
stability
· Proprioception
· Hand-eye
coordination
· Functional
training and flexibility
In order for optimal performance, one must train the body the way it will be used. To succeed, one must possess STAMINA.

Comments from the Program Director
Marie Maese-Thomason, MS-Exercise Science
The number one
goal of STAMINA is injury prevention. By focusing on this goal, it will
allow necessary neuromuscular adaptations to occur resulting in improved
performance.
The
development of this program consists of periodization which will use 3
cycles (3 weeks each). With in each cycle, the athlete will be
challenged in a new way, leading to optimal performance enhancement.
Each athlete will also be tested in the areas of: Speed, explosiveness, power, muscular endurance & strength before and after the program.
