Description
The November Pitching and Hitting Camp of the Redbird Baseball Academy will focus on the mechanics and mentality of pitching and hitting. Each two-hour clinic will be run from 6:00pm to 8:00pm. Individual clinics will be split into one hour of hitting and one hour of pitching. Camp will take place at both the Paul Dejong Training Facility and the Indoor Turf Practice Facility.
The entire session will be take a more in depth look at the art of hitting and pitching, while creating a fun yet competitive environment in which each camper can learn and grow in their skills. Each individual week will build upon one another, as we plan to have cumulative competitions and instruction.
The pitching and hitting portions will cover mechanics, drills, and mentality. Stay tuned for more Redbird Youth Baseball Academy announcements, as we will hold future sessions that focus on all different aspects of baseball.
