Radial Bat™ Youth Clinics
About The Clinics
Radial Bat Youth Clinics are 90 minute fundamentals baseball clinics designed for boys and girls in grades K-6. A maximum of 20 students in each group are allowed for both the K-3 and 4-6 grades. Additional clinics will be added to accommodate all interested participants.
There are five different stations that are designed to help each participant improve their skill level by teaching proper mechanics- hitting, fielding, catching, throwing and base running. Our clinicians wrap up the session with a discussion on sportsmanship. Each student will be issued a name tag and parents are encouraged to stay and watch as the clinic is as much for them as it is for their children.
Radial Bats will be used for the hitting stations which include soft toss, tee drills and live pitching. It is imperative that wood bat muscle memory be incorporated at a young age to make sure that each player develops into the best possible hitter. Radial Bat Youth Baseball Clinics are fun, exciting, educational, and are designed to elevate baseball interest in all youth.
I founded the concept of traveling youth baseball clinics in Minnesota in 1995 and started Great River Baseball Clinics. What could be better for boys and girls as well as their parents than to attend a unique baseball clinic where key fundamentals are taught as well as sportsmanship?
After hearing about the Radial Bat Institute and Radial Bats, I was looking to partner my clinics with a company that was dedicated to the development of youth baseball skills and one that also produced a product that could keep players safe and improve their hitting skills. I love baseball, coaching baseball, and teaching baseball to boys and girls, that's why I'm so excited about helping to grow the Radial Bat Youth Baseball Clinics throughout the United States.
It's important to teach our children so much more than just baseball and sports skills, we need to teach them the importance of participation, team contributions and developing a positive attitude. I am very happy and excited to be a part of the Radial Bat Institute.
