Hitting and Pitching Camp for kids 8 through 14

Boys and girls ages eight through 14 are invited to participate in the 30th Annual Hitting Camp hosted by Waubonsee Community College. The Hitting Camp runs from Monday, June 9, through Thursday, June 12, for baseball and fast pitch softball. Instruction begins each day at 12:30 p.m. and continues until 2:30 p.m. on Waubonsee’s Sugar Grove Campus. 

The head instructors for the camp, Waubonsee’s Dave Randall and Naperville North’s Mark Lindo, will teach the fundamentals and techniques of hitting with the emphasis on the basic mechanics necessary to excel at baseball and softball. Station work, group drills and individualized instruction are used to teach each player those skills. The cost is $70 for each participant and $50 for each additional family member. Each participant receives a “Hitting Camp” t-shirt. Brochures are available at Kirhofer’s Sports in Aurora or by contacting Dave Randall at (630) 466-2527. Registration is online at www.waubonseetickets.com.

A Baseball Pitching Camp will be offered immediately following the Hitting Camp. The fee for the Pitching Camp is $30, and it runs from 2:35 to 3:20 p.m. beginning Monday, June 9 through Thursday, June 12. Registration for the Pitching Camp is also online at www.waubonseetickets.com.
