LEXINGTON, Ky. — The Kentucky baseball program will hold its annual Wildcat Baseball Camps at Cliff Hagan Stadium during the summer, set for June 8-11 and June 22-25.

The Wildcat Summer Baseball Camps are specifically designed to help players improve their individual baseball skills. UK head coach Gary Henderson has assembled an All-Star staff to work closely with each camper and teach proper techniques and drills. A staff consisting of the Kentucky baseball coaching staff, current and former UK players, and a bevy of outstanding high school and college coaches will provide hands-on instruction and a terrific learning environment for each camper.

“We are really excited about our summer baseball camps,” Henderson said. “We have assembled a top-notching staff to work with the players and we will be focused on the individual development of each athlete. Our camps provide a wonderful learning environment for the young baseball player to improve his skills.”

The first session of the Wildcat Baseball Camp will be held Monday, June 9 – Thursday, June 11. The second session will be held Monday, June 22 – Thursday, June 25. The camp is open to youth players, ages 6-14.
