That was one of the events that I was really anticipating. It included a video on the Fast Pitch Camp, Rules discussion, and open floor discussion. But at the end of the day Saturday we were told that it was cancelled. That left a big hole in my evening plans, and I decided to use it driving.

I also think that the local hosts may have gotten a little greedy and oversold the school. I am not sure, but it looked like attendance might have been near 200. We had about 50 in our drill group. That is way too many for one instructor. It took forever to work through individual drills and they kept falling behind schedule so that complete drill segments were skipped in order to close out at the correct ending time. Surprisingly end time was not late; it was almost a half hour early.

That is way too many people, even with four staff members. Prescribed attendence is 75 with three instructors. But you never know what type of deal was struck. Obviously, ASA doesn't want to turn away people, but sometimes it might be better if they did.
