ELGIN, Ill. – Chicago Bandits pitcher Kristina Thorson will be holding a ‘Pitching and Catching’ clinic on Saturday, March 6 at Play Ball USA in Des Plaines, Ill.
The 2007 National Pro Fastpitch rookie of the year and 2008 World Champion will have two sessions – one or beginning pitchers and one for the more advanced.

During the advanced session, participants will learn the physics behind movement of pitches, spin drills for getting more movement out of pitches and keys to sharper movement and control.
