The Iowa softball program announced on Wednesday it will hold a series of winter clinics in January.

The camps will range in price from $25 to $100 and will all take place in the Bubble on Jan. 13-16, 2012. The deadline for registration is Jan. 6, after which a $10 fee will be tacked on to the original price.

Head coach Marla Looper’s clinics will begin with the Little Hawks camp, for children grades K-3, on the evening of Jan. 13. The Advance Pitcher/Catcher camp, for those in grades 8-12, will be held on Jan. 14; Iowa’s All Skills Advanced camp will tale place on Jan. 15. Those who sign up for both camps will receive a discount.

The camps conclude on Jan. 16 — Martin Luther King Day — with the All Skills Intermediate camp for those in grades 4-7. An additional session for pitchers and catchers is also available on the same day, but campers must be enrolled in the general skills camp to participate.

Interested parents should direct their questions to Iowa assistant coach — and Team USA standout — Stacy May-Johnson, who can be reached via email at [email protected]. Her office telephone number is 319-335-9263.
