2010 Zionsville Baseball Winter Clinics

ZLL is pleased to announce upcoming clinics for players. The clinics are organized by Coach Adam Metzler, ZCHS varsity baseball coach and ZCHS alumni. The camp staff will include the 2010 Zionsville High School baseball team. There will be low camper to instructor ratio to insure quality instruction. All fundamentals taught will be the same that are taught to the players at Zionsville Community High School. All campers will be placed into age groups in order to insure the most improvement, challenge and fun during the camp experience.

Player hitting and defensive clinics will be March 6 and March 13 (ages 6-9 from 8 – 10 am; ages 10-12 from 10:30 am - 12:30 pm; and Middle School from 1 pm - 3 pm ) at the Zionsville Community High School Varsity Gym. The cost is $20 per player per session. Send by mail or sign up and pay at the door. Registration information can be found in the Zionsville baseball winter camp flier (PDF 64K).

We are fortunate to have the support of the school coaches. Plan to learn a lot and have fun!
