Why choose a Baseball Nation Camp? How long have you been doing this?

Accepted Answer

We have experienced Pro Players, College All-Americans, College Coaches, and Top High School Directors running our camps, sitting on our advisory board, and continuing to come up with the latest instruction and drills. We have decades of experience building high-quality youth camps. Our model is built around local instructors, small groups, fast-paced drills, and teaching fundamentals the right way. Every camp is designed to be affordable, organized, and run by coaches who know how to develop young athletes.

Question 5

What age groups are offered? What is the typical age of a player who attends?

Accepted Answer

All registered players attend camp during the same overall time window, but athletes are grouped by age and skill level to ensure they train at the right pace and with players of similar ability.We have athletes ranging from 7–14 years old, and we divide groups into natural age brackets such as:7–8 year olds9–10 year olds11–12 year olds13–14 year oldsThese groups keep instruction targeted and appropriate, while still allowing flexibility. For example, if a player’s skill level suggests they would benefit from a more advanced group (a 12-year-old joining the 13–14 group), we will make that adjustment to give them the best learning experience.

Question 6

How many players attend camp?

Accepted Answer

Our camps do have strong turnout, but small-group instruction is a priority. If we add players, we always add staff. Groups are kept to smaller group ratios matched by age and ability. Quality of instruction and experience is our #1 priority. Each group station has a coach (and an assistant) to ensure constant reps and that athletes are engaged, having fun, and learning the entire time.  Over the course of the camp, players work through skills in a fun, progressive format packed with reps, coaching feedback, and movement.

Question 7

How do I register?

Accepted Answer

Find your camp location and complete registration online.  Camps do fill quickly, so once spots are full, we close registration to protect the player-to-coach ratio.

Question 9

What if my player misses a day of camp? Do they attend a make up day?

Accepted Answer

We’re only contracted to use each facility on specific dates, so makeups aren’t possible if a player misses a day of camp. However, missing a session doesn’t prevent players from jumping back in. Our system is built for kids to pick up right where they left off.

Question 10

What if camp gets cancelled for a day?

Accepted Answer

We have a contingency plan in place for each camp in the case of inclement weather, or other possible situation in which we would need to reschedule a camp date.
