Just a note to let everyone know about an opportunity for your child to participate in a local camp being put on by the U.S. Baseball Academy (formerly the Midwest Baseball Academy) at Notre Dame High School on Sundays: Jan. 10, 17, 24, 31; Feb. 14, 21

We have had several families from our organization take part in these camps in the past and the feedback is always positive.  The U.S. Baseball Academy is known for their very low coach to player ratio, so the campers get a lot of individual attention from the coaches.  The U.S. Baseball Academy also limits the number of campers allowed to register to assure that the ratio stays between 3-6 players per coach.  There are camps for hitting, pitching, and catching for grades 1-12.  You can read more information about the U.S Baseball Academy by clicking here:  http://www.usbaseballacademy.com

Spots are filling up fast, so if you are interested you can register by clicking the link below.  When registering, there is a section that asks how you heard about the camp.  Please click on the Freemansburg Bethlehem Township Athletic Association option as the U.S. Baseball Academy will make a donation to the league for every camper that attends from our program.
