The Youth Summer Baseball Camp is for 10-12 year old baseball players to help improve their overall athleticism by introducing proper movement patterns both inside and outside the nets. Program components:
-
- Hitting / Pitching
- Speed, Agility and Conditioning
Here is a brief summary of each segment:
Hitting and Pitching Program – The goal of the program is to expose young athletes to the proper movements of hitting, pitching and throwing. Players will have the ability to not only learn how to move more efficiently, but also build a solid foundation of proper mechanics to enable them to transfer energy more efficiently. Each session will include the following:
-
- Proper warm-up
- Band work
- Dry drills
- Front toss / BP
- Plyo drills
- Long toss
- Mound work (pitchers-only, as appropriate)
Speed, Agility and Conditioning – All workouts are based on utilizing the athlete’s own body weight and learning correct movement patterns that will enable them to load the body with more weight later in their athletic career.
Getting fast is first about getting strong and getting into good landing positions. The priority in the youth speed program is building that strength as well as learning how to get into successful positions in order to efficiently stop (decelerate). Ladders, cone drills and sprint finishers will be included for conditioning only. Purpose / focal points include:
-
- Bodyweight strength circuits to safely increase lower half strength
- Proper jumping and Landing Mechanics
- Linear and Lateral deceleration
- Directional Step (intro duction to base stealing)
- Conditioning / Finishers
