Beyond becoming an all-around better ball player, learning baseball skill and strategy, here are TOP TEN, non-baseball related REASONS WHY BASEBALL CAMP IS AWESOME:

9. Experience success and become more confident - DIRB Camp helps children build self-confidence and self-esteem. There's accomplishment every day.

8. Gain resiliency - The kind of encouragement and nurture kids receive at camp makes it a great environment to endure setbacks, try new things, and see that improvement comes when you give something another try.

7. Unplug from technology - When kids take a break from TV, cell phones, and the Internet, they engage the real world- real people, real activities, and discover their amazing abilities.

6. Develop life-long skills - Our instructors and coaches provide the right instruction, equipment and facilities for kids to enhance their sports abilities.

5. Grow more independent - Your player will manage their daily choices at DIRB. We have a schedule, but work collaboratively to enjoy the day.

4. Get a break from "basic day camp" - Many kids who love baseball would love to have a day, week or SUMMER filled with their favorite sport. Why weave baskets when you could PLAY BALL?

3. Take direction form someone new - Our coaching staff and instructors have an amazing ability to teach kids new skill, sportsmanship and discipline in the game.

2. GO OUTSIDE AND PLAY - DIRB Summer Camp is a wonderful antidote to "nature deficit disorder," to the narrow experience of modern indoor life. Don't you remember spending the ENTIRE day outside when you were young?

1. Make friends - Do It Right Baseball players are a close group. DIRB is the place where kids make great friends who share a love of baseball. Free from the social expectations pressuring them at school, camp encourages kids to relax and make friends easily.
