Learn essential skills needed to progress as an athlete and competitor ON and OFF the mound. This camp is aimed at establishing a solid foundation of exercises and knowledge to connect the athlete to his peak performance on the baseball field.
Drills taught at this camp are the same drills practice in professional baseball players’ offseason training programs.

HITTING CAMP:
This comprehensive hitting camp will include instruction, drills and practice to develop efficient swings. While the emphasis will be on proper mechanics, including using your back hip as a pivot point and how to turn the barrel, hitting approach will also be discussed.
Hitters will be put through a number of drills with the plan to develop the right feelfor the swing. Drills will include front toss, off-center front toss, connection ball & short bat drills, insider bat, PVC turns for feel and BP. This is a camp for players who want to dedicate time to develop proper mechanics for a high-level swing.
