The BEST 360 Baseball Clinics are an intermediate baseball development program for athletes ages 7–12, designed to strengthen skills, challenge players to reach their potential, and prepare them for more competitive levels of play. Players participate in weekly clinics featuring focused instruction and intentional training from collegiate and former professional athletes in a positive, high-energy environment. Coaches work with each player using the BEST 360 Baseball Curriculum, building upon the core fundamentals of the game. Athletes will develop their abilities to hit, throw, catch, run the bases, and improve their Baseball IQ through structured drills, competitive activities, and game-like scenarios that build confidence and consistency on the field. Each clinic follows a structured training agenda, with daily areas of focus such as hitting mechanics, defensive fundamentals, base running, and situational awareness. Because each session builds upon the previous one, regular attendance is strongly encouraged to maximize development and overall understanding of the game. Players will also receive live reps, competitive drills, and small-group instruction, allowing coaches to provide individualized feedback and help each athlete continue progressing throughout the program. Vending machines are available on-site for players who would like to purchase a snack or drink during the evening clinics. $20 Sibling discounts.
