Jake,

Thanks for passing this on.

I do not have the exact schedule yet but I know I will be doing one of the Baseball Hot Seat sessions. That topic will be "Correct Mechanics for the Throw to 2nd". I am thinking that will be sometime on Friday, but not sure yet.

I do know that the session for the Soft Ball portion will be Saturday sometime. The topic there will be on "Proper Receiving and Blocking".

My son and I will also be doing 15 minute mini-lessons right in our booth all weekend starting Friday morning. We will doing one every hour.

Hope to meet some forum members down there!!

Anybody here plan on attending?

FYI - Flights from the Southwest U.S. to Providence (Via Southwest Airlines) are usually pretty inexpensive. I would be happy to pick anyone up if I am available.

That would be great! PM me with your details and I will make reservations for dinner. Everyone I have met through BBF has helped me tremendously in my own quest to learn.

Anyone else want to join us??

Sounds like a good time. I would love to go, but will be at the ABCA Convention next weekend and then working a camp the following weekend.

Do they put a DVD of the clinics like ABCA does? I would love to see some of the presentations.

Hi Guys,
A couple guys are planning on attending the WBC this coming weekend. Let me know who plans on attending and I will try to set up lunch. Dave Weaver will have a booth and is presenting so I will try to work around his schedule.

Send me a PM or let me know here.
Looking forward to meeting a few of you guys.

World Baseball Convention had nearly 1500 coaches from all over the country attend this weekend's event. An awful lot of baseball in one location...

Our very own CatchingCoach was a hit today.
