🥎 NEW PITCHING INSTRUCTOR ALERT! 🥎
Please help us welcome Bethany Hutcheson to the Central Arkansas Softball Academy
Open Booking Availability👇
https://book.runswiftapp.com/facilities/CASA/lessons?lessonId=6417
Hi, my name is Bethany Hutcheson! My passion for softball began when I was just six years old, starting with coach pitch. From that moment on, the game became an important part of my life and continues to be something I am deeply passionate about today.

I graduated from Woodlawn High School in 2019 with plans to continue my softball career at the University of Arkansas at Monticello. Unfortunately, the COVID-19 pandemic changed those plans. I made the decision to begin working full-time while transitioning to online classes, but my love for softball never faded.

Over the past several years, I’ve had the opportunity to help coach 14U spring and fall league teams, as well as provide individual instruction during and between seasons. Although I wasn’t able to pursue the college softball career I had originally envisioned, I found another way to continue competing through slow-pitch softball. I began playing recreational slow-pitch approximately three years ago and currently compete on a Women’s D slow-pitch softball team ranked among the top 10 teams in Arkansas.

I’m excited for the opportunity to work with young ladies and help them develop both on and off the field. I offer pitching and fielding lessons with an emphasis on strong fundamentals, proper mechanics, consistency, and overall player development. My goal, however, extends beyond teaching softball skills. I want to help young ladies build confidence, develop a strong and positive mindset, learn the value of hard work, and strengthen their love for the game.

I look forward to sharing my passion, knowledge, and experience while helping develop the next generation of confident softball players!

🥎 NEW INSTRUCTOR ALERT! 🥎
Please help us welcome Aubree Goodnight to the Central Arkansas Softball Academy!

We are excited to introduce Aubree Goodnight, a former collegiate softball player who brings years of competitive experience, a passion for teaching, and a desire to help young athletes reach their full potential.

Aubree is a graduate of Benton High School, where she was a key contributor to two undefeated State Championship teams. She continued her softball career at National Park College, excelling both offensively and defensively while playing right and left field.

During her two seasons at National Park College, Aubree compiled a .366 career batting average while posting an outstanding .985 career fielding percentage. As a sophomore, she played flawless defense with a perfect 1.000 fielding percentage, proving herself to be a dependable outfielder.

She went on to compete at the NCAA Division II level for the University of Arkansas at Monticello, where she continued to make an impact both at the plate and in the field. Aubree finished her collegiate career with a .294 batting average and a .979 fielding percentage, serving primarily as a designated hitter while also playing both left and right field when called upon.

As a left-handed hitter, Aubree offers instruction in both traditional hitting and slapping techniques. Having originally learned to hit right-handed before transitioning to the left side as a young athlete, she understands the mechanics and challenges of both approaches. Defensively, her expertise is in the outfield, but she also has knowledge of the infield and enjoys helping athletes become more complete softball players.

Beyond the field, Aubree earned her Associate Degree in General Studies from National Park College before completing her Bachelor's Degree in Computer Information Systems with an emphasis in Cybersecurity and a minor in Business at UAM. She currently works as a Computer Technician for the North Little Rock School District.

When she's not working or coaching, Aubree enjoys spending time with friends and her beloved puppy, Coco. Most importantly, she is passionate about giving back to the game that has given her so much.

"Softball has played a huge role in shaping who I am today. I'm excited for the opportunity to give back by helping the next generation of athletes build confidence, develop their skills, and fall in love with the game." -Aubree Goodnight
