The BCA Fastpitch Competitors is a competitive fastpitch organization and a branch of Be Complete Athletics. Led and created by Coach Nicole Denes, the BCA Fastpitch leadership board is comprised of former collegiate softball athletes including several former University of Oklahoma softball athletes, as well as experienced coaches and professionals with the same goal: helping our athletes develop excellence on the field and in life.
What makes us different? We train the whole athlete. BCA Teams stress the importance of balance, and training all the pieces that make up an athlete - from the mental and emotional side of the game to the physical, mechanical, and situational side of the game. Our athletes have access to mental skills training every month with Coach Nic and more. We work closely with our partners to provide ongoing resources to our athletes’ families to provide an ongoing flow of support. We support and develop our coaches. Our coaches are dedicated to the process and ready to work as a team to build something great.
Our coaches are not afraid to hold themselves accountable and are purposeful in their own journey of self-improvement as coaches of young impressionable athletes. If we expect our athletes to hold the same beliefs, we must hold our coaches to the same standard. If you are a coach interested in leading a BCA Fastpitch team, please contact us by email or fill out the form! Follow our main account on IG/FB: @BCA_Fastpitch:
Do I have to buy a membership at the end of my month?
No. Your membership will automatically renew on the date you purchased. We have ongoing renewals throughout the month. Being a member means we work hard to make sure you always have a spot.
Can I reschedule my sessions once I book them?
YES! Just cancel your session through our member's app, and make a new reservation on another day.
How far in advance can I book out?
Our schedule is set for 6 weeks in advance. Every day a new day will open up with new spots for you to book!
What if there is inclement weather?
We will make the call by noon of that day if our sessions will run or not. If we cancel due to weather, we will be getting with you regarding rescheduling options.
Do membership sessions require a catcher?
Yes! Our membership sessions for pitchers do require a catcher (except for Rookie Pitching, and Velocity Sessions). Parents are allowed to catch, minors can also catch but are required to sign the waiver and wear a mask.
How do you train the mental game?
Our 4X and online members have access to monthly mental skills coaching calls with Coach Nic. During in-person membership sessions, athletes learn how to nurture their confidence, focus and responding to their performance in healthy ways through various techniques and strategies with BCA Instructors.
If I don't use an in-person sessions, will it roll over to the next month?
No, you must schedule your sessions within the month they are active. Commit to training up front!
How much notice is required if I need to cancel?
24 HOURS: We do require 24 hours notice to cancel or reschedule a session. We keep our sessions small and intimate, but this means that keeping enough spots for all of our members is a delicate dance. Your app will not allow you to cancel or reschedule a session with less than 24 hours notice.
What if the session I want is full?
Join the waitlist on your members' app! If someone cancels you will be notified so you can reserve the spot that just opened up.
Can I add on lessons?
Yes! Our in-person members are able to add on private and membership sessions (when available). Only members are able to do this at the member's rate.
My daughter has to be seen in a one on one setting.
Most of our athletes whose parents say this are the ones that benefit the most in a semi-private setting. Our membership sessions are highly competitive. Our athletes push each other to throw harder, make adjustments faster, and bring out the best in each of our athletes. Our instructors are highly trained in harnessing the power of a group, and our athletes have seen the results. If you still feel this way, check out our open private lessons!
What if I only want one instructor?
The beauty of the membership is that your athlete has a team of professionals helping her. Our instructional team functions similar to a private practice, in that our experts are working from the same programming, philosophy and style, and communicating daily about our athletes development and trajectory.
