Baseball Summer Camp - JuniorJunior Camp is a recreational day camp for boys and girls of all skill level, ages 4 to 7 years old taking place in Lawrence Park. Junior Camp operates Monday to Friday from 9:00 am to 3:30 pm and is designed to improve the fundamental movement skills of our young campers in a baseball-specific environment. We will teach all of the wacky rules of baseball and play fun games to learn the different techniques. By developing their running, throwing and catching skills, campers will build the self-confidence necessary to help them succeed as a young athlete.
Junior Camp is designed to help our 4 to 7 year old campers develop the movement skills required to become an all-star! All of our instruction and activities have been prepared to meet the developmental stages of our younger campers. More time will be spent focused on building the fundamental skills (eg. throwing, catching, and running) that every baseball player needs to succeed. We will take more time to explain the rules of baseball so that every player leaves camp with a stronger understanding of the game.

At the end of each week, players will receive a personalized Scouting Report detailing their strengths and areas for improvement. Players will be scouted on their hitting, defence and pitching, giving them an opportunity to demonstrate skills and techniques learned throughout the week.
At 8:30 parents will drop off their children and sign in with our staff. Short activities such as soccer, octopus and kickball will take place until camp begins at 9:00am.
Coaches will lead campers through a fun and active warm-up.
Campers will warm-up their arms with basic throwing exercises. Everyday campers will review the fundamentals of throwing and learn new drills emphasizing proper form.
Skill Groups: All campers are divided into Skill Groups based on age and skill level. Campers will move from station to station with their group throughout the week. Stations: Each day of the week features stations designed to focus on a specific range of skills. Types of stations include: hitting, infielding and outfielding.
Campers will gather for a short water and snack break.
Skill Groups will continue rotating through their stations. See 10:00 – 10:45am for more details!
After finishing their lunch, campers will get a chance to participate in organized lunch time activities.

A quick water and snack break will be taken.
On Monday campers will be divided into teams each coached by an instructor. The teams compete in a round-robin tournament from Monday to Thursday and battle for the Championship on Friday afternoon. During the games, instructors will pause to discuss strategy and positioning.
