Hitting Clinics
Nov 2012 Hitting Clinic - Dates, times, location coming soon!
The School of Baseball hitting clinics are designed to teach the proper fundamentals of hitting in a five step program. The clinic is for both the young athletes from ages 8 to 12 for boys and girls and an adult that attends the clinic with them.
