I just got the fliers concerning the the Midwest Baseball Academy Clinic. I will be distributing them to area middle schools and elementaries. Anyone who has a player of that age group that does not get a flier, please contact me at FredGibson@msn.com and I'll see that you get the information. We will also be giving hitting instruction to 9th-12th graders. Coach Bradford of Warren will be the primary coach with the hitters. Anyone who has had to play his teams know how well he teaches the skill.

Just a reminder... This camp is open to players from any school district in the area - not just Athens kids.

It is a great time of year to get in a few extra swings and work on pitching mechanics.

We just finished our first annual baseball clinic at Athens High School. We had 145 players at the camp that met six Sunday's. We heard nothing but good comments about the camp. The staff of Jeff Bradford, Chris Stewart, Chris Hewitt, Brent Chadwell, Jason Ervin, Vaughn Grigsby, Larry Bean, and Chris Hendricks was outstanding. They made my job as camp administrator a walk in the park.
