This camp is a great way to get your 4-year old (soon to be 5) or 5-year old child started in baseball. No previous experience is necessary.  Camp covers basic baseball skills including throwing and catching the ball, fielding (grounders & fly balls), playing your position, and running the bases. Hitting instruction is also provided in separate groups: tee-ball hitting off a tee and 'coach pitch' hitting. Camp is appropriate for new and returning Tee-Ball players as well as for players making the transition to 'Coach Pitch' baseball from Tee-ball.

Players will be divided by skill and age for the camp. Number of separate groups depends on the number of players that register.

The Fort Collins Foxes were the 2007 & 2005 Champions of the Mountain Collegiate Baseball League. We have arranged for a number of their position players and pitchers to provide youth baseball instruction at The Edge Sports Center.
