Camp Philosophy:
The Bolles School coaching staff will be presenting a
four-day camp on improving the fundamentals involved
in becoming a complete baseball player. The camp will
be broken into offensive and defensive days and divided
into 30-minute teaching sessions. In addition, participants
will be grouped according to age and ability. The following
is an example of each day’s activities:

OFFENSIVE DAY
.. Team stretch
.. Live batting practice
.. Bunting mechanics
.. Stance, stride, & swing
.. Tee work, soft toss, & flips
.. Base running mechanics
.. Tour of Bulldog weight room & hitting video
.. Concession stand break

DEFENSIVE DAY
.. Team stretch
.. Throwing mechanics
.. Infield play
.. Outfield play
.. Pitching mechanics
.. Bat drills & cage work
.. Tour of Bulldog locker room & defensive video
.. Concession stand break
