BASEBALL CAMPS AND CLINICS OVERVIEW
ISA holds baseball camps and clinics year-round all over the world, and are available for all ages 6u-18u. The camps and clinics are divided up by specific age groups so players can receive maximum detailed instruction.
All camps and clinics feature group training and position-specific training that focus on the four main principles at ISA: Fundamentals, Character
Athleticism, and Mental Toughness. Coaches and instructors work closely with each player on developing these four principles.
Camps and clinic coaches are made up of the same ex-pro coaches that run each academy or travel team in that particular location. Guest ex-MLB players are part of each ISA camp and clinic and make special appearances to teach everything from hitting, pitching, catching, fielding, and mental toughness.
