Our goal is for a complete experience for the player and parent. There is no better way for players to be evaluated, refine their skills with college coaches, learn about the recruiting process and experience college baseball. Our camps are designed for athletes to receive maximal exposure, interaction, and instruction from college coaches and players.
ALL GAMES TAKE PLACE ON ONE FIELD! This means that the player to coach ratio is HIGH!!
All positions are CAPPED in order to maximize playing time, exposure and interaction with the 18 college coaches attending.
Camp will take place at Iron Bridge Baseball Academy (Chester, VA), a state-of-the-art fully-turfed facility with both a game and practice/warm-up field. Iron Bridge is short drive from University of Richmond’s campus where optional athletic center/campus tours will take place throughout camp.
