The Boston College Baseball Holiday Clinic offers a very unique opportunity for players to continue to improve their skills during the winter months using our state of the art facility known as "The Bubble."

While the bubble is suitable to allow teams to scrimmage, this is an instructional based clinic so no games will take place.
This clinic will give players the chance to work with not only the Boston College baseball staff, but many of the top college coaches from the northeast. Each station is led by a college baseball coach with a current or former Boston College baseball player to assist in teaching.
It is a four night clinic but we understand that schedules do not always allow that to work. We encourage kids to attend at least two nights if possible.
