🚨 Something Big Is Coming to Finesse Fastpitch... 🚨

This week, we spent the day behind the cameras with Donny Dreher, Alec Lesko, and several former and current Finesse athletes and Tommie Walker Fielding Club athletes working on an exciting new project that will bring even more value to our players, coaches, and families.

While we're not quite ready to share all the details yet, we can tell you that this is something we've been working on behind the scenes that will help athletes develop, coaches teach, and families better understand what makes the Finesse way so successful.

For now, enjoy a few behind-the-scenes photos from the shoot and keep an eye on our social media channels over the coming weeks. 👀

Trust us... this is one announcement you won't want to miss.

Thank you Abby Hornberger (Princeton grad), Megan Claerhout (Kent State), Kayla Turmell (Oakland), Marissa Jackson (Valparaiso), Kaitlyn Pallozzi (Alabama), Avery Garden (Northwestern), Lyla Turmell (Toledo signee), and Mallory Hool (Oakland signee) for your generosity in helping better the game and the program. Also huge thanks to College Bound Jocks for your video expertise...we can't wait to see the finished product.

🏆 Congratulations to Lyla Turmell – State Champs / Turnin2 Player of the Year! 🏆
What an incredible season for Lyla Turmell, a member of Finesse 18U-Dreher/Peters and future University of Toledo Rocket.
Lyla put together a championship-caliber year, leading Walled Lake Northern High School to the MHSAA Division 1 State Championship while making a tremendous impact both in the circle and at the plate. Her ability to perform in the biggest moments helped guide Northern through one of the toughest paths in Michigan high school softball.
