Introduction

Cotuit Kettleers Advanced Clinic, led by head Coach Mike Roberts, is for motivated youth baseball players who have a desire to improve fundamentals in all areas of their game.

Athletes work on individual fundamentals each day and break down into position play twice during camp "Teaching thru Repetitions" is our trademark statement and the goal is to refine each athletes baseball skills.

Your child will be instructed by members of this year's Cotuit Kettleers, coaches and players from leading NCAA baseball programs across the country. These individuals have been selected as Clinic leaders based on their formal training and practical experience in youth sports coaching, their dedication to youth baseball and their personal accomplishments in the game.

Detailed Camp Description

Group instruction at skill stations will be given each day. At times, different games and activities designed to keep participants interest will be incorporated into the clinic schedule. A scrimmage baseball game generally concludes the day's activities.

Equipment & Supplies
Each child should bring a baseball glove, a light snack and beverage (water is best). All belongings should be clearly marked with the child's name. We discourage bringing equipment (Bats and catchers gear) as we have the proper equipment that is needed for our instructional stations. However, the coaches will take any forgotten items to Lowell Park for safekeeping. You may pick up any lost items at the announcer's booth following the clinic or at the next game.

Sportsmanship
The most important lessons to be learned in the Kettleers clinics are sportsmanship and respect for fellow athletes. We believe in creating an atmosphere of encouragement and respect on the field. Any child who does not adhere to our standards regarding behavior and language may be asked to leave the clinic.

Rain
Cancellation due to serious weather will be announced 8:30 am. Please call the clinic phone number for a recorded message (508-428-2847) The clinics will cancel only in the event of unusual weather conditions (downpour, thunderstorm, etc.). There is no shelter available at the clinic sites, so attendance is left to parental discretion. Rain days may be made up in another session (with the exception of the final session) by advance scheduling with the coach in charge. Only days cancelled by the clinic coaches may be made up.
