The clinic will be conducted by Ronnie Morales, former Major League Baseball Pitcher, with the assistance of current Stewartstown Young Vets Coaches.  Ronnie is a Wichita State graduate, former Chicago White Sox pitcher, that enjoyed a 7 year professional baseball career as a pitcher.  Coach Morales ended his career with local Atlantic League teams the York Revolution and Lancaster Barnstormers.  He is excited to share his knowledge of the game through this youth clinic.
 
Pitcher and Catcher clinics will be broken down into 2 age groups and then 2 groups within those age groups.

12 and Under Pitcher and Catcher Clinics will be held on Tuesdays of odd weeks from 6:00 to 7pm and 7 to 8:00pm. (A group and B group)

16 and Under Pitcher and Catcher Clinics will be held on Tuesdays of even weeks from 6:00 to 7pm and 7 to 8:00pm. (A group and B group)

The registration fee for all five weeks of the program is $120.  All session will take place in HARP batting barn located next to our community building at 16 College Avenue Stewartstown, PA 17363.  

The first week (Feb.7th) of the clinic will be for the 9-12 year old age group and the second week (Feb. 14th) of the clinic will be for the 13-16 year old age group. Age groups will alternate attending each week accordingly throughout the duration of the program with the last session scheduled for April 11th. Please be sure to bring your own glove and catchers equipment. The Young Vets organization will provide baseballs. We will reach out via email closer to the start date of the program to make you aware of your assigned time frame. If you have any questions until then please feel free to contact us at [email protected]

In the event that we do not have enough registered catchers, pitchers may have to catch each other.  Also HARP follows the Southeaster School Districts inclement weather procedures so if school were to be canceled the clinic session schedule for that evening would be canceled as well.

Proceeds from this camp with be used to provide 1st aide and CPR training for our Young Vets Coaching staff and the purchase of an on site AED that would be available for anyone using HARP fields.

A drop in feature may be added at a later date to allow you to choose specific evenings that might work for your busy schedule.
