Building Strong, Confident, and Resilient Young Women.

At Level Up Softball, we help female athletes build their confidence and self-esteem while improving their softball skills. We understand that strong bodies and strong minds open doors for females that will last a lifetime. Through a uniquely integrative approach, we train our athletes to be independent thinkers, self-starters, and problem-solvers on and off the field.

Why A Unified Approach Matters

There’s so much more to becoming a high-level athlete than practicing for long hours and playing more games. Programs that focus on quantity over quality produce athletes who are tired, overwhelmed, and frequently injured. The result? Teams with poor culture, players experiencing burnout, and frustrated coaches searching for answers.

Over-Trained and Underdeveloped

Athletes are being told that more is better - more reps, more intensity, more travel, more games. Players are overtrained and underdeveloped; their schoolwork and personal relationships are suffering, and their love for the game is getting lost in the constant emphasis on wins, losses, and statistics. Their dreams of playing the sport at the collegiate level feel increasingly daunting as they attend tournament after tournament with no results, while their families sacrifice time and money only to be met with frustration.

Fall Back In Love With The Game

Level Up programs equip athletes and families with the tools and resources to achieve success at the highest levels. We give the love of the sport back to the athletes by empowering them to be big, be bold, and own their physical and mental power. We help keep them healthy and strong by teaching them how to fuel, hydrate, train, and recover properly; we encourage them to understand how their individual body moves so they can self-assess and make adjustments on their own; and we foster an environment where mistakes are accepted as opportunities for learning and growth.

Programs for Every Stage of an Athlete’s Career

At Level Up Softball, we believe that strong bodies and strong minds grow together. Our programs meet athletes where they are and support their development physically, mentally, and emotionally. We create an environment where athletes feel encouraged to step outside their comfort zones, build resilience, and trust in their own abilities. Through intentional training, mentorship, and a focus on personal growth, we help athletes discover what’s possible when they believe in their own strength.

Meet the Founders

Level Up Softball was built by former collegiate athletes Jade Blackhurst and Natalie Voortman - women who have walked that path. They understand firsthand the challenges of competing at a high level, and they know the difference it makes to be coached by women who have walked in that path. Their mission is to equip young female athletes with the skills, mindset, and confidence to excel not just in softball, but in life. Through hands-on coaching, mentorship, and leading by example, Jade and Natalie prove that strength, resilience, and leadership aren’t optional - they’re a standard.

Trusted by Parents. Respected by Coaches. Valued by Athletes.
