OUR COACHING STAFF IS AMAZING and we have an EXCELLENT PLAYER/COACH RATIO
Owner and Lead Instructor Tim Thoreson has been conducting summer camps since 2004, giving him years of experience running summer camps. Coach Tim is also a K-8 Grade Physical Education teacher which allows him to work with young athletes almost daily. These experiences give Tim the ability to manage a safe, fun, and educational baseball experience that appeals to all ages. Helping Tim run these camps are local high school and college baseball players who have a great passion for the game and enjoy sharing their baseball knowledge with young ballplayers. Typically our player/coach ratio is right around 7/1.
OUR CAMPS IS ONE OF THE BEST WAYS TO ENHANCE SKILL
When kids attend our camps they will get reps! Many times once summer games begin baseball teams are limited on practices. Kids often show up to their games, play catch, take a little batting practice, then play. This process simply does not allow kids to get enough practice. At MN Nice Baseball Summer Camps players participate in an elite throw and catch routine every day that will promote defensive skills. They will also practice hitting and defensive drills. Our scrimmages allow players the opportunity to learn about game situations as well. Some kids come every week, thus obtaining hundreds of additional reps that will help them reach their full baseball potential.
KIDS RETURN YEAR AFTER YEAR
Parents always comment, "How do you remember all the names of these kids?" The truth is that so many kids come back year after year, that Coach Tim and the coaching staff only need to learn the names of just a few players as we've already met so many. Once a player attends our summer camp, they generally come back, many times bringing a new friend. One of the neatest things about coaching at the MN Nice Baseball summer camps is watching the vast improvement in the players from year to year.
WE PRACTICE AT A BEAUITIFUL BALLPARK
This year we are excited to announce our camps will take place at Alimagnet Park in Burnsville. Alimagnet is conveniently located in Burnville just off of County Rd. 42 very near Apple Valley and Lakeville as well. Alimagnet boasts several fields, and batting cages.
