Baseball Camp

Southern Idaho Baseball camp is one of the longest tenured camps in the country. It offers excellent instruction in hitting fundamentals, pitching, fielding, catching, and base running.

Camp instructors are present and past professional players and college coaches that are dedicated to teaching fundamentals. Twenty-three years of great camp experiences have provided our campers with success in high school and college.

Our camp has many advantages because of its great facility and excellent baseball environment. Return campers have a great advantage because of their experience and skills learned previously from their attendance.

CSI Baseball camp is geared toward the 12 - 18 age group. If you have any questions please contact one of the camp coordinators, Skip Walker or Boomer Walker.
