Rookie All-Skills Clinic
A 6-week Rookie Skills Class on Saturday mornings will begin January 6th from 9-10am. This clinic is intended for players 7-9 years old.
Players will be taught to develop the correct way to throw, hit and field. Young baseball players need to be coached in the proper and safest way to develop as an athlete. Through progressive skills and drills, we will develop these positive habits in the young players.
Enrollment is limited. Sign up today! Classes are Saturday’s from 9-10am at Dingers NJ in Maplewood on the following dates: January 6, 13, 20, 27, February 3 & 10.
Bat Speed Clinic
A 6-week session focusing on increasing a player's bat speed. Increased bat speed leads to greater exit speed, which translates to more power, more distance, more hits, and more bases. This is what all hitters look to achieve! These sessions are for serious ball players 10-14 years old.
Enrollment is limited. Classes are Saturday’s from 10-11am at Dingers NJ in Maplewood on the following dates: January 6, 13, 20, 27, February 3 & 10.

Weekly Catcher's, Hitting & Defensive Clinics For Players Ages 8-13
The catching clinics will cover both the basics and advanced techniques needed to excel in: receiving, footwork, framing, blocking, fielding, and throwing. Besides these fundamentals, we will go over how to control the game and be a leader on the field. The defense and agility clinics will have an emphasis on proper glove presentation and footwork with both the basics and advanced techniques needed to excel on the field. The goal is for players to become more "athletic" in their infield position. The hitting clinics will progress weekly focusing on fundamentals with proper use of the tee leading up to live batting practice, including situational hitting, along with learning the importance of having intent when in the batter's box. Each session will have fun and competitive games with situational play.
