MISSION STATEMENT
KNIGHTS BASEBALL CAMP 2013
The Knights Baseball Camp was established to provide top-quality baseball instruction to players of all ages from the best coaches in all of New Jersey. Under the direction of Rutgers Head Coach Fred Hill, every camper will go through a variety of drills, lectures, and games, and will leave camp a better, more complete player.
From Little League, all the way up through high school, every attendee will learn how to play the game the way it was meant to be played, and will be taught specific aspects of the game based on their own personal skill level. The majority of the activities exhibited at camp are the same practice routines and drills that Coach Hill uses with his own players at Rutgers, where he has established that program to be among the nation's best.
The focus of the Knights Baseball Camp will be around teaching each individual the proper way to play the game, while also stressing the importance of having fun and enjoying everything that the great game of baseball has to offer.
Home of the four-time BIG EAST Champion Rutgers Baseball team, Bainton Field is also the site of the Knights Baseball Camps. Completely renovated prior to the 2007 season, this facility features a Fieldturf surface second to none in all of college baseball. Combined with an adjacent practice infield, three batting cages, and eight pitching mounds, the overall complex has everything you need to become a better player.
