This past week, we had our third annual Full Count Nike RBI Girls Lead Softball Camp. Drawing the attention of over 30 softball campers, the event took place at University Park Softball field in Portland.
Highlights from the camp were:
Engaging softball skills stations with accomplished FOB coaches and fellows, dedicated collegiate players, and the expertise of Coach Erin Wilson from the Mariners Training Center.
- A thought-provoking history lesson, spotlighting trailblazing women who shattered barriers by playing in the Negro Baseball League taught by Nikki Brown Clown.
- Career exploration lesson with the President of Clark College, Dr. Karin Edwards
- Science-infused softball fundamentals demonstrating principles of physics through engaging experiments.
- Engaging Arts & Crafts
- Each camper went home with a Girls Lead FOB Swag kit including a glove, t-shirt, and visor
- Each camper designed their own Softball Trading Card, celebrating their own unique identity and strengths
FOB's mission is clear: nurturing confident, capable young women while fostering leadership both on and off the field.
