Lemont High School Baseball to Host Youth Skills Clinic

Though sub-zero temperatures and mountains of snow still are a reality, pitchers and catchers are reporting to spring training camps in Arizona and Florida, which that means that baseball season is right around the corner. In anticipation of the upcoming season, head coach Brian Storako’s Lemont High School baseball program will host a youth baseball skills camp on Sunday, February 23. The camp runs from noon-2 p.m. for players under age 10, and from 2-4 p.m. for players ages 10 and older.

The camp will cover all of the game’s major aspects, including hitting, fielding, throwing and baserunning. The cost of the camp is $20 for participants who pre-register, and $25 for those who register at the door. All participants will receive a Lemont High School baseball t-shirt as part of their registration fee.

Parents/guardians are encouraged to pre-register their children online at www.leaguelineup.com/lemontbaseball Check-in will begin 30 minutes prior to the start of each camp session. Players must bring their own equipment, including a bat, glove and indoor tennis shoes. No cleats will be permitted.

Proceeds from the event will benefit the Lemont baseball program, winner of the South Suburban Conference-Blue Division title for each of the last four seasons.

The clinic will be conducted in Lemont High School’s Field House, which is accessible off of Julia Street on the southwest side of campus. Lemont High School is located at 800 Porter Street in Lemont.
