Welcome Players!
We are pleased that you have chosen to spend a week at an America's Baseball Camps Experience this year. We have instructed over 50,000 players within the past 13 years and continue to expand services and locations at a rapid pace. Currently, ABC has conducted camps at over 500 locations in 29 states and 3 countries. America's Baseball Camps has become the leader in baseball camps throughout the world.
At ABC we believe in the development of a baseball player's skills involved with the five tools of baseball while demonstrating proper fundamentals, a respect and love for the game, and a good work ethic. This focus will be achieved through hard work; skills taught and learned, a commitment to success, and making the right decisions on and off the field. In addition to the instruction and fun that you will be having on the field, we provide exciting educational lessons and activities off of the field including guest speakers from the collegiate and professional coaching ranks.
We are confident that this will be an exciting, educational and memorable experience for you and we look forward to seeing you at camp.
Announcements
Thank you for signing up for an America's Baseball Camp Experience. The following information should provide you with everything you need prior to camp. We look forward to working with you soon!
Check out our one-day Hitting Camp on July 19th from 1:00pm-6:00pm. At only $99.00 it is an amazing value and is a great way to kick off the week.
If we are picking you up from the Santa Barbara airport after 12:00pm, we will take you and your items directly to the fields for the hitting camp. We will check you in and register you at the dorms immediately following the hitting camp. If you have not signed up for the hitting camp and would like to, shoot us an email or give us a call.
Please note that if you have paid only your deposit, your credit card will be charged automatically 4-6 weeks prior to camp. Please contact us if you would like to make different arrangements for final payment.
IMPORTANT NOTE: Please bring this sheet with you to camp, along with a completed and signed copy of your health form and a copy of the front and back of your health insurance card. You will not be admitted to camp without these items.
Day-Camp / Commuter Information
Commuters (Day Players) must meet at the Dunn School the morning of July 20th at 8:30am. Plan on being picked up around 4:00pm each day. If you are attending the hitting camp please be at the fields on July 19th by 12:30 for check in, the hitting camp will start at 1:00pm.
*Remember that as a commuter you will not be included in any of the nightly off field activities. If you are interested in the night activities and want to be included please email us at ron@baseballcamps.com.
If you decide you would like to upgrade your package to the Overnight Option, email us at sandi@baseballcamps.com. Please make this decision 1-2 weeks prior to the start of camp as it makes it difficult to change the room list a couple of days before camp begins.

Refund Insurance entitles you to a full refund of camp fees should you cancel your registration more than 14 days prior to the start of your session. If you cancel within 14 days of your registered session, we will give you a camp credit for all monies paid, valid for three years. Credit with insurance is transferable to family members or friends, and good toward any America's Baseball Camps.
PRESCRIPTION MEDICATION: Any camper that needs to be taking a prescription medication will need to notify us via email prior to the start of camp. Our Camp Director will make sure that the medication is taken properly. We ask that you give us full instructions for when and how much to administer. Thanks.
IMPORTANT RULE: There is no tobacco, alcohol or drugs of any kind allowed at America's Baseball Camps. We have a no tolerance policy. This is your warning. Any violation of this rule will result in your immediate removal from camp at your parent's expense. Thank you for your understanding.
