Private Instruction
If you're a level-headed family looking for quality instruction in a positive setting, the THBA is a perfect fit! Our approach to one on one instruction is unique as we want to preserve the enjoyment of playing and learning the game while still developing skills. We achieve this by loading each session with drills and repetitions and most importantly- encouragement!
Frequently Asked Questions
Is this the right camp for my child?
Perhaps the most frequently asked question we receive. If your child is age 5-13, is well behaved, enjoys being active, likes learning, excels in a structured learning environment, and wants to spend a portion of his/her summer vacation developing character traits and baseball FUNdamentals, the answer is YES! We have had excellent results with talented travel ball players as well as complete beginners! We have a grouping to meet everyone's needs that ensures safety and maximizes learning & productivity for all!
What is the background of the leader and instructors?
The key to our ongoing success has always been the people leading the program. THBA Director Brian Justine, MS ED, and his staff clear the PBSO's background screening in advance of annual THBA summer camps. In addition, Justine is certified in First Aid/CPR by the American Red Cross. The majority of the THBA staff are individuals are well known local players and coaches who are former THBA students themselves. Therefore, Justine has been able to vet his staff and narrow the pool of candidates to individuals who best align with the THBA mission of building relationships through baseball. New for 2019, all THBA instructors will be certified in First Aid and CPR.
What should I wear and bring to camp?
Every participant is required to bring their own lunch, bat, hat and glove. It is recommended that each participant brings $3-5 per day for a refreshment/snack at the concession stand. Sunscreen and a water bottles are strongly recommended. Baseball pants and cleats are optional and many of our students do dress in this attire. Shorts, lightweight t-shirt and athletic shoes are recommended.
Is the camp outside all day?
A popular and important question. Since 2000, we've run hundreds of summer baseball camps here in sunny south Florida. Through those experiences, we've learned simple best practices to keep our students refreshed and safe in the summer warmth. We start by meeting in the shade each morning and stressing the importance of staying hydrated. Next, we take a 10 minute water and shade break every hour from 9am-11:30am. From 12-12:45, we eat lunch and rehydrate in the shaded picnic area at Lake Catherine. Following our cool down period and lunch, we resume the afternoon program from 1-3, again, taking water and shade breaks every hour. Our balanced and sensible approach has helped us keep thousands of young players fresh and energized playing the game they love on beautiful, sunny summer days in south Florida!
