Introduction

The Seminole Advanced Baseball School is designed to teach advanced skills and strategies of baseball exclusively. This is a very intense week of baseball for the advanced player who sincerely desires to learn and improve his skills through instruction, drills, and competition in controlled game experiences. The watchful eyes of professional scouts, college, and junior college coaches will evaluate each player for their own professional interests.

Conducted on the campus of Florida State University, Tallahassee Community College, and nearby high school fields, the Seminole Advanced Baseball School , is the "premier instructional baseball school in the country".

The Seminole Advanced Baseball School has been the setting for professional scouts and college coaches to see great high school talent for the first time in a very competitive atmosphere. Recent Advanced Baseball Schools have produced 26 First Round Major League Draft Picks plus additional draft picks; Collegiate All-Americans; College World Series participants; as well as additional solid college players. The Advanced School is fast becoming a National and International baseball school attended by players from over 26 different states and several foreign countries.

The Advanced Baseball School will group participants in teams depending on the position they indicate in the registration form. The morning and afternoon schedule will include practice and a controlled game along with complete hitting instruction, base running instruction, and position play instruction on Monday- Thursday. Friday will be a professional style evaluation for all college coaches and professional scouts in attendance.

The evening sessions will include a Hitting Evaluation and a Florida State Coaches Forum. This informative session will give the participant valuable insight on what to do and expect going into their high school years, or after they have graduated from high school. There will be a question and answer session at the end of this forum. Past forums have been greatly appreciated by campers and parents in attendance.

This entire week may be the most important week in a high school player's career. Each participant has a week to learn and improve as well as display his playing ability against competition of players of the same age group and goals. .
