NOTICE:

The Oshkosh Fast Club members voted to approve the contract with IAI.  John Ingala, President of IAI, is a local, civic minded fundraiser who has agreed to do the work for less than the market rate.  John has been very effective at other community projects and we look forward to working with him.


The next Fast Club meeting is Wednesday, October 29th at 6:00 pm at The Roxy.


THE FAST CLUB PHILOSOPHY

The main objective is to teach the girls about fast pitch softball and to have fun.  It is to teach skills and strategies in a manner designed to develop self-confidence and improve physical abilities and conditioning.  We are here to encourage equal participation, fun, skill development, physical fitness, teamwork, sportsmanship and family involvement.  In addition we are here to teach the girls character and self-esteem.  This is not always reflected in the score but is seen in the development in the girls as players and the team as a complete unit.

Fast Club is an instructional league for girls in present ages 5 to 16 where full windmill style pitching is played.  Age is your daughter's age on January 1st, 2009.
