CASSANDRA DARRAH

Cassandra has been giving pitching lessons for 3 years and working softball and pitching specific camps for 5 years. Teaching young girls how to play the game of softball and proper pitching mechanics has been a very rewarding experience for Cassandra. She is excited to continue her dream with Full Circle Fastpitch.

CRAIG LARKIN

Craig Larkin pitched for Eddyville-Blakesburg High School, Iowa Western Community College, Illinois State University and Missouri Southern State University.

During pitching lessons, I work with students on the proper throwing techniques and pitching mechanics. I teach each student the most efficient and powerful way to use their body not only when pitching but throwing as well. I spend an extensive amount of time explaining the importance of stretching and arm care to keep their arms healthy. After watching a student throw and pitch I can formulate a plan that will best serve their current needs. Their age and time of year (during the season / offseason) will be taken into account.
