Dec. 1, 2012 DonB 48 posts | Altamonte Springs, Florida, 2013 Winter Softball Camp I'm planning on attending the 2013 Winter Softball Camp at Altamonte Springs, Florida. Has anyone on this board attended this camp and if you did what was your overall experience and thoughts about it and would you go again? Thanks in advance Don |

Dec. 3, 2012 DonB 48 posts | Thanks for the info guys. I've now have heard a lot of bad reviews on this camp. I've got a cruise out of Miami that leaves on Feb 14th and back on the 18th. Is there any other softball training camps around Florida either two weeks before or after these dates? I'm driving down from Ontario,Canada. It would be nice to get some softball time when I'm down there. Don |

Dec. 7, 2012 surf88 Men's 65 1000 posts | Classic Spring Training is a super camp and Curt puts all his effort into making it a quality experience for everyone. Weather can be perfect or it can be a bit chilly. Bring warm weather stuff and sweats in case a cold front rolls in. Worth going to. Can also go on this site and express where and when you will be and players will contact you for BP sessions around Florida. I always find parks with activity options when there. |
Dec. 7, 2012 DonB 48 posts | Thanks surf88....I'm trying to register on the Classic Spring Training site . It's telling me "Currently your account is waiting for approval from a staff member. Once an administrator has approved your account you will get access to this forum." Hopefully this won't take long. It would be great to meet up with some players to do some bp when in Florida. |

Dec. 9, 2012 DonB 48 posts | Thanks Bruce.....I got on to the site.Not to much going on at this time on it. If I hadn't planned the cruise I would have registered for the Classic Spring Training in Jacksonville. Maybe another year if I can get the wife to agree. I'm actually planning on staying over night at Jacksonville on my way down Feb 12th.Now if there was an off chance that I could tag up with some people on the 12th and get some hitting in I would come down a day earlier??? I'd just have to make sure the wife is occupied(that could be costly) Don |
