Camps

The primary goal of the Nebraska Baseball Academy is to help each athlete develop a positive mental attitude about themselves and the game of baseball.  Our focused instruction provides campers with sound fundamentals, disciplined work habits, drill work for personal work, and a passion for the game.  Our personalized approach helps build confidence.  We want our athletes to confidently approach their next challenge and help them contribute to their personal goals and those set by their coaches and team.

Day Camps

Each summer we conduct several Day Camps in various towns throughout the state of Nebraska. Day Camps are what we consider All Skills Camps on the road! Day Camps typically run from 9am – 3pm. Many Day Camps are open to 7 year olds through high school seniors; however, new NCAA Legislation does restrict the ages to 7 year olds through 8th grade students for Institutional camps and clinics outside a 100 mile radius of the institution's campus. If you are interested in hosting a day camp, please contact Renee Brinkmann at the Nebraska Baseball Office (402) 472-2269 or rbrinkmann@huskers.com. She would be happy to discuss the requirements for hosting a summer camp in your area.
