2014 Junior Wahawk Baseball Camp With Rick Heller(University of Iowa) & BJ Hermsen (Minnesota Twins)

The purpose of the camp is to help develop the fundamental skills of the game of baseball. By teaching the game at an earlier age, we are allowing our future baseball players the opportunity to be prepared to play at a higher level when they reach High School. Camp will be held at the West High hitting facility, and the West High school gymnasium. Campers will report to the West High gymnasium to check in. Please return Camp Registration by January 8th. Camp will be open to a limited number of players. If you submit a registration form plan on attending the camp unless you are contacted by a coach, there will not be a confirmation sent.
