The Fast Pitch Instructors National Registry.
This is a free national database of private instructors giving one-on-one and semi-private lessons.
If you are an instructor, send your contact info, city and state, and what aspects you teach to ceramatech_engineering@yahoo.com
I CAN list, contact information, any certification by a national softball organization (ASA, NSA, NFCA). I can also list any college degree held in a related sports or medical field.
I have four lists; pitching, hitting, fielding and catching. Please indicate which area/s you give private and/or small group instruction.
I CANNOT list any certification of one individual by another, any certification of one instructor to another instructor, an instructor's past accomplishments or the accomplishments of one of the instructor's students. I cannot list any team affiliations.
I also cannot list anything about prices.

A BALL PLAYER’S PRAYER
God grant me wisdom, to tell a strike from a ball,
to know where to throw and never to fall.
Keep me always in the base line, running straight and true
and I'll look for your sign, to stretch one into two.
God give me vision, to see every pitch
so if a player needs help, then I will see which.
Let me always hustle, so I'll be at my best,
take pride in myself, in sports and the rest.
God be my strength, when I throw the ball
when I'm far from home plate, or against a wall.
So I never miss a base, please guide my feet,
bring me home safely, so my job is complete.
When I help younger players, let me always give praise,
so they'll see you in me, in all of my ways.
Please guide our coach, to be fair and smart,
to teach me to be good, let it come from the heart.
Let me take a loss, just as well as a win,
to do any less, is surely a sin.
As long as I can play, let me make my parents proud,
as proud as I am, when they yell MY name out loud.
However my games end, let me always have fun,
and if Heaven has All Stars, I'd like to be one.
When my games here are over and my seasons are done,
let me play on your team, just like your son.
Amen.
