Baseball Experience High School Camp

The University of Florida baseball program is pleased to offer our GATORS EXPERIENCE High School Camp. This camp gives a player the opportunity to receive the full experience of being a Florida Gator. The camp will focus on the same basic fundamental skills and mechanics in regards to hitting, pitching, and defensive skills that help prepare the Gators for the toughest conference in college baseball.
Our Gators Experience High School Camp will consist of position specific instruction from Florida Baseball staff/ players, as well as other college and high school coaches. Baseball Instruction, strength training, nutritional information sessions, arm care, athletic facility tours, along with live games with pitchers throwing on a pitch count, will all be part of camp.
This camp will be limited to (56) campers. Each camp participants will have access to the same facilities that Florida Baseball players have. Campers will be able to utilize stadium tech, as well as receive some of the same apparel that the Florida Baseball team wears. Each Camper will receive (2) Gators Jersey with number of choice, (2) pairs of Gators shorts, (2) camp shirts, and Gators drawstring bag.
Each camper will also receive a post camp data package. All data will be collected throughout the camp via Trackman, YakkerTech and/ or Rapsodo. Data capture will take place during a Batting Practice, game at bats and pitching during the games. No data will be captured during drills. Post camp evaluation will include a comparison of specific metrics relative to a Division I player, as well as comparatives to others campers attending that session. All evaluations will be emailed to campers within 2 weeks after camp has concluded. All activities and schedules are weather permitting and may have to be rescheduled or cancelled due to inclement weather.
