American Baseball Camps is exploding as the #1 fastest growing baseball camp in America! We saw the overwhelming need for a camp like this in youth baseball to give kids the highest level training with constant encouragement & confidence building from coaches. Our high-level training features video swing & pitching analysis, analyzed from HQ by our team of highly trained Professional Baseball Players. Our confidence-builders include slip n’ slide baseball, home run derby, and more.
The mission of American Baseball Camps is to give kids the tools they need to be successful, and the confidence to turn those mechanics into more success on the field. We also reward being a good teammate at the end of every camp day, because we know that is how kids are going to stay in the game longer, make more friends, be liked by coaches, and have a lot more fun playing the game.
