The Staff
NCAA-Caliber Instructors
Every athlete trains directly with highly regarded NCAA and collegiate figures. These are the instructors fully committed to date — with more elite names being finalized.
Ole Miss Catching
Makenna Bellaire
Catching Specialist · Ole Miss
An SEC catcher at Ole Miss who joined the Rebels as a transfer from Florida, Makenna leads the catching track: receiving and framing, blocking, pop times and throw-downs, and the game-calling and leadership that make a catcher the engine of the defense.
Boston College Corner Infield
Emma Knight
Corner Infield Specialist · Boston College
A freshman infielder for Boston College in the ACC, Emma made an immediate impact — reaching double-digit home runs in her first season and ranking among the conference leaders. A four-time Offensive Player of the Year at Rains High School in Texas, she's also known nationally for her viral essay “When I Am 100 Years Old,” shared millions of times online. At camp she coaches corner-infield play: footwork, glove work, quick hands, and decision-making under pressure.
LSU Outfield
Rylie Johnson
Outfield Specialist · LSU
A freshman outfielder at LSU competing in the SEC, Rylie arrived in Baton Rouge as one of the top-rated recruits in Virginia — a two-time High School All-American and a Softball America Top-100 freshman out of Fredericksburg Christian Academy, where she hit 17 home runs as a senior. At camp she leads the outfield track: first-step explosiveness, route running, tracking, and the throwing mechanics that play at the college level.
UBC Outfield · 🇨🇦
Jennifer McKellar
Outfield Coach · UBC
Head coach of the UBC Thunderbirds and one of only two coaches in program history to reach 100 wins, Jennifer has elevated UBC to the best season in its history and a first-ever appearance in the NAIA National Championship round. A former second-team All-American infielder/outfielder, she brings a college head coach's eye to outfield play — reads, routes, tracking, throwing, and the defensive habits that turn talent into recruitable performance.
Liberty Pitching · 🇨🇦
Abby Findlay
Pitching Specialist · Liberty
A Toronto, Ontario native and freshman pitcher at Liberty University, Abby brings elite circle experience home to Canada. In her final season before college she posted a 0.65 ERA with 379 strikeouts in 177 innings while batting .460, and dominated at the 2024 Canada Nationals. At camp she leads the pitching track: mechanics, spin and movement, sequencing, and the competitive mindset of pitching at the highest level.
Next Level Softball Pitching
Shaun Walker
Pitching Instructor · Next Level Softball
Pitching instructor and facility director at Next Level Softball, Shaun specializes in data-driven, biomechanical pitching development — using 4D motion capture, EMG sensors, smart insoles, and spin analysis to build deliveries that are efficient, powerful, and healthy. Respected by peers as one of the top pitching instructors in the country, he turns advanced performance data into clear, personalized adjustments athletes can feel and repeat.
