About us:
Next Level Baseball focuses on the Five Tool Make-Up; hitting for power, hitting for average, throwing, fielding, and speed/agility. Training is always position and skill-level specific so that each camper gets the most out of their time. We also feel strongly about using what is learned in game situations, therefore we provide live games so our campers can work on their skills in game situations.
We believe there are too many camps being taught by inexperienced coaches. Our camps are run by coaching staffs that have a minimum of Division I level baseball experience. The low camper-to-coach ratio is one of the strengths of the camp and allows for more individualized instruction for each camper. Next Level Baseball works hard to set the standard for professional baseball camps, clinics, and instruction throughout Northern California. Our coaching philosophy is based on the most respected and freshest training concepts today in baseball. Next Level Baseball is here is to instill self-confidence, respect, and discipline to help your athlete reach his goals in athletics and all walks of life. We're constantly building on our professional advisory board to continually increase our knowledge and training tactics.
