BOOTCAMP INFO

HJRB Parents,
Our 3rd annual BOOTCAMP is right around the corner now… tomorrow (Saturday!)  Thanks to everyone for the enthusiastic response to it.  We've had record sign-ups with over 120 kids registered for it!!   Online sign-ups will be turned off around 7pm tonight.  If you can still get to the registration page your good, if you can't… you’re too late.  We will take walk-ins at the door but the fee will be $45.
 
Please note: signing up for BOOTCAMP does not register your player for the 2013 season.  This is a separate sign-up process that is now available on the website. 
 

For those signed up for Bootcamp:

  • PLEASE arrive 15 – 20 minutes before your start time to pay and get checked in!! They will be starting on time!
  • Make sure you get a name tag, it will have your group number on it so you know which station you will start at.  You will stay with that group the entire time, rotating from station to station. 
  • Do not wear cleats!  Wear gym shoes (or boots and change into dry shoes at the school, there will be snow)
  • Wear a cup!!
  • Bring your ball mitt of course.  Also, if you have them, bring your bat, batting helmet, batting gloves, catchers gear, etc.  There will be an area set aside to store bat bags.
  • You can change into your bootcamp shirt if you want, but it is not required.
  • Please no sunflower seeds!!
  • There will be limited seating for parents available.  Please no young children in seating area if possible. It will be crowded.  
 Here is an example of the rotation (Your actual station rotation will depend on which group you are assigned and may vary from this example):
5 min               Introduction by H.S. Varsity Coach Nate Potts to all camp participants
10 min              Stretch / Warm Ups
20 min              Batting Cages
20 min              Throwing with optional Pitching/Catching
20 min              Outfield
20 min              Infield

5 min               Camp Wrap up with all camp participants
 
If you signed up after January 20 we will not have a shirt for you at the camp, it can be picked up during evaluations. 
 
Thanks again, and we’ll see a lot of you on Saturday!!!
