Summer 2023 CAMPS and CLINICS
Youth Camps
Open to boys and girls age 6-13
Monday - Friday from 9AM-2PM
*except for the July 5th camp session*
These camps are designed to be instructional and FUN!
We will cover all of the basic skills and fundamentals of baseball including throwing, catching, hitting, infield play, outfield play, and baserunning.
We will pick teams on Monday and compete all week for the Camp Championship which will happen Friday afternoon after our week long "season".
In a typical day the morning will be skill focused as we will introduce a skill, do some drills to work on that skill, have a competition focused on that skill. We will then break for lunch (players may bring their own or order lunch as we order pizza on Mondays and Fridays (it's an option everyday as well), Chipotle on Tuesday, Chick Fil A on Wednesdays, Deli Italiano on Thursdays. Following lunch, we will play baseball games. Our main goals for the week are to have fun, stay safe, and learn and improve at baseball. Over the past 9 years, I have received a great deal of overwhelmingly positive feedback as kids tend to love these camps. I believe it is due to our teaching approach where we try to make sure every kid is learning and having fun!
Cost for Youth Camp is $350 per week with the lunch option available for $65 for the week. Lunch can also be purchased daily for $15 per day.
Additionally, you may add money to your child's camp store fund which the kids will use to purchase Gatorades, candy, and other exciting treats that we'll have at our camp store. This feature is a big hit with the kids.
Prospect Camps
Open to boys and girls age 12-15
These camps are 4 day camps from 2:15-4:15PM
These camps are more intensive in terms of instruction and are designed to teach how the game of baseball is played at the high school level and beyond. For many players, they'll only get a year or 2 on the big field before getting to high school and there are many skills and fundamentals that they'll need to be able to learn quickly in order to make and contribute to their high school team. This camp is designed to introduce many of those skills and concepts and to accelerate their adjustment to baseball at the high school level and beyond. We will cover key team fundamentals like pop fly priority, cuts and relays, holding runners on properly and controlling the running game, baserunning to apply pressure on your opponent, situational hitting, and more. These camps are fantastic for preparing you for the next step in your baseball career.
Cost is $240 for the week.

** Yeonas Park is home to Vienna Little League and hosted the 12 year old All Star State Tournament in 2021. It is a phenomenal facility with 3 little league fields and batting cages. We had a great week at Yeonas last summer so we'll make it 2 great weeks there this summer! A very special Thank You to Vienna Little League for allowing us to use the facility!
