Camp Philosophy:

The staff at all star kids sports places an emphasis on teaching life skills through the game of baseball. We also want to improve your child’s overall knowledge of the game.  We tailor instruction to your child’s ability levels and individual needs.

Camp Focus:

 All Star Kids Sports’ 5 Tools of Emphasis:

1. Attitude: We encourage kids to stay positive and be enthusiastic. The game of baseball has a lot of failure and if you are going to be successful you have to have a positive mind set. A career hall of fame hitter is going to fail 7 of 10 at bats and still be considered on of the best. If a player focuses on the negative the will be discouraged and never reach his full potential.  
   
   
2. Catching: We believe in teaching young players how to properly use their gloves so they can take the fear out of catching a ball. We focus on proper glove placement and being more athletic in order to move to the ball. For advanced players we will give them the tools that scouts look for: quick feet and hands, quick and accurate ball transfer, soft hands, and help train players to trust their eyes and track the ball.
   
   
3. Throwing: Proper throwing mechanics are a main focus for young players. Many players are not taught proper mechanics which can lead to arm problems, inaccurate throws and will not allow the player to reach his full potential in arm strength.
   
   
   
4. Hitting: For young players we focus on a basic balanced stance that is the foundation for growth of a mechanically sound hitter. We teach young players how to protect themselves if a pitch is coming toward them so they can feel confident and without fear when the step into the batters box. For advanced players we will be able to fine tune their swing and fix any swing flaws that may appear. We also focus on the offensive execution side of the game, not only teaching hit & run, sacrifice bunt, etc. but the philosophy behind such plays. We will cover the team aspect of offensive execution.
   
   
   
5. Running/Agility: We have partnered “Velocity sports performance” company that specializes in “SPARQ” training. The emphasis is on speed, power, agility, reaction, and quickness all of which help coordination and set the foundation for better athletes. We will have a “Velocity” day for each camp session.
