Summer Baseball Camps

Basebal4life6,
I've been posting summer camp stuff under recruiting but your idea is pretty good.

I think that would be quite helpful, especially at this time of year when we are looking at camps for the summer. Why can't we get a "Baseball Camps" subject header, like the "Showcases"?

Great idea.

If any one has attended the Maryland, Lehigh, Princeton, Dartmouth, or Harvard camps your feedback would be appreciated.

I am in total agreement with this thread. There should be a seperate forum for "Baseball Camps" that should include college, high school and private camps that are not "showcase" events but camps.

Between my two sons and through the years we have attended Babbitt [I hope that is the right spelling] baseball camps, West Virginia University camps and, West Virginia State University camps. Only last year, my youngest son attended the Elon University Camp and was very pleased with the coaching and the talent level at the camp. He has been invited to several other camps but certainly a forum devoted to the subject would be very helpful in deciding where to go.

Ok, I am glad to hear that others share my thoughts of how beneficial a camp forum would be. Now, what are the steps we need to take so that hsbaseballweb hears us and creates a seperate forum. Summer time is fastly approaching and the sooner this gets done the better, for both parents and players. There are tons of camps out there for parents and players to choose from and it would be nice if this forum was easily found by many so that more opinions can be heard. I am sure many of you parents and players will agree, there are some camps you go to that you might as well have donated your money to a charity. They do a great job of babysitting your kids for you but you are not getting the baseball instruction that you thought you paid for.

This would be very helpful, I have asked several times on this site about camps without many replies.... here is one from a couple of months ago.

Well, so far no luck, I do not see a forum designated for summer camps. Anyone have any suggestions?

You have a PM.

I'm sorry that I didn't notice this suggestion earlier. It's a great idea.

Feel free to post questions about college baseball camps, and of course those who run these types of camps should post their information here. If and when time permits, I will try to compile a more extensive listing of camps.

MN-Mom:

Thank you for the space. I hope it works out. I certainly will be following it.

Thanks again.

1st & 3rd.....
I attended the Princeton baseball camp last summer and will be playing for them in the fall because of it. I had an amazing experience and the coaching staff is top notch. The dorms were comfortable and the facilities very good for a small school. They have an entire infield underground indoors for bad weather. I live in Texas and am a LHP, and I can say that the Princeton camp is the only reason I was recruited by Princeton. Of the 6 recruits Princeton got for next year, 5 attended the camp, so I can say that going to them because of the schools minimal recruiting budget is a must. Let me know if theyre is anything else you want to know.

MN-Mom:

Thank you for setting this up! I hope to gain some insight on some of these camps, like that provided by texasbbl on the Princeton camp.

Thanks!
