Description

This hitting camp will offer the opportunity for players to receive specialized instruction from current Rice baseball coaching staff members and players. The camp will consist of individualized instruction, group work, and competition to help players further understand their swing and exemplify the traits of successful hitters. The camp will focus on swing mechanics, approach, competitiveness, and situational hitting. Each hitter will receive their own player profile in our Hittrax system, allowing our staff to capture and record data to help track results. This two-day event will be a great way for players of all ages to develop their individual skills to become an elite hitter. There will only be 80 players maximum for this camp so spots will run out quickly!

Camp Philosophy

The growth and success of Rice Baseball Camps are primarily due to the baseball team’s long history of success on the diamond. This history includes 197 players drafted by the MLB, 7 College World Series Appearances, and 1 National Championship. Head coach Jose Cruz Jr., a graduate of Rice University and 12-Year Major-Leaguer, will be in attendance for all of our camps. Our ultimate goal is to provide our knowledge and expertise to help grow each individual’s love for the game of baseball.
