Camp Details

Bill Brown's Youth Fundamentals Baseball Camp is designed to provide young baseball players (ages 7-13) the opportunity to expand their baseball skills while preparing for the upcoming Spring season. Each 1 ½-hour session will be split between hitting and defensive instruction. The hitting instruction will focus on building a fundamentally sound swing from the ground up. Defensive instruction will include proper throwing mechanics and position-specific instruction. Campers will leave each week with drills and techniques to incorporate into their daily baseball development.

We have assembled a veteran group of coaches and counselors experienced in camp instruction dedicated to helping each and every camper become a better baseball player. The camp staff combines years of baseball experience and knowledge with the enthusiasm and desire to personally work with the camper.

Bill Brown Baseball Camps are designed to teach students solid fundamental baseball skills as well as to raise their level of understanding of the game of baseball. Our purpose is to provide each camper with the instruction and encouragement needed to develop individual skills to a greater level. In addition, we want the camper to be aware that individual skills are best utilized when they are incorporated into a team concept. We will emphasize how individuals work together on a field to form a baseball "team."
