Go Yard Evaluation and Instructional Session
Players workout at one position. All primary pitchers will pitch a bullpen and in a game. We suggest that all secondary pitchers throw in a bull pen as we can not guarantee they will throw in a game.
The Go Yard Instructional Showcase Camp written and verbal player evaluations are a vital ingredient in each player's learning and development. Following each workout session at the camp, each player meets with his evaluation coach and receives his customized "Game Plan" which is designed and intended to improve the skill level of each player.
