Discussion: Hitting Clinic in Medford, OR for Tom Amundson

Benefit Softball Hitting Clinics

Appreciate getting the word out about this clinic all proceeds go directly to Tom and his family!

July 23, 2019 – Medford, OR : The clinic in Medford, OR is a very special clinic for a very
close friend of mine, Tommy Amundson. We have played ball together and been close
friends for over 15 years. Tommy was a timber faller for 45 years, and he was helping
someone cut some firewood. A branch fell and knocked him out, causing him to fall to the
ground from a 6’ platform. Among other injuries, he broke his neck and back and is now a
complete T4 paraplegic.
Proceeds from the Medford clinics (with enough interest, we will do more clinics) will be
donated to Tommy to help cover the extensive medical bills and equipment that are not
paid for by his insurance. If you'd like to follow updates on his progress, go to Facebook
and search for a group called "Journey through Craig". His daughter Tracey gives great
updates there.
The family is also hosting a surprise homecoming party for Tommy in Red Bluff on
September 13, 2019. If you’d like more information, search Facebook for “Tom Amundson’s
Homecoming.” Tickets for the party can also be purchased directly from the website at
www.tom-amundson-homecoming.ticketleap.com/tickets.

Hitting Clinic will include:
SLiAcademy will provide a one-day class on understanding your swing, improving your
swing, and utilizing tools to be the best slow pitch softball hitter you can be.
Softball Hitting Clinic Details
Our classes include much more than just practice. We

Discussion: Launch Angle

Full Monty what is your body angle? If you set the correct body angle you will swing with slight angle up or down depending upon locations of the ball. Keeping the shoulders fairly square is important in that process. However if your looking at strictly launch angle Blast Vision recommends 10-20%. MLB keeps track of Launch angle and exit speed on every hitter on every pitch so you know it's important.
Hope this helps. Nancy great advice as always!

Discussion: Major++++


Many teams believe the difference in Major and Major Plus is Power but as we age we see less home runs. The quality of the overall hitting is still prevalent in all levels. Defense, speed, depth and arm strength does vary by each team.
The problem as I see it is the challenge to see how other very good Major Plus teams can justify taking the 5 runs.
Larry,
I never thought I would see where this type of an adjustment would be made my making a very unusual additional division in an attempt to level out the playing field. We still have the dwindling numbers of Major Plus teams in 65 and above.

We will play within the rules and give it our best effort even if it requires giving 5 runs to a strong 65 Major Plus team. Like Doak, don't ask us to ever take the runs, won't happen!

I understand we have a problem just not convinced this is the solution.

Discussion: Major++

Nancy,
The move from Major to Major Plus isn't easy and some rule changes should probably be made to make that transformation easier for them. However, penalizing another Major Plus team doesn't make a lot of sense. Lower level or new unproven Major plus teams probably should take the runs as you suggested. Higher level, well not something I would want a team of mine to do.
