Dodger Youth Camp Series offers great opportunities for kids in December
By Jon Weisman
A great opportunity for youth baseball and softball players and Dodger fans is coming in December.
Ten top Dodger prospects, including former first-round picks Walker Buehler, Gavin Lux, and Will Smith, and 2016 Arizona Fall League All-Stars Willie Calhoun and Alex Verdugo, will be instructors at the Dodger Youth Camp Series, presented by the Dodgers and the Los Angeles Dodgers Foundation.
Minor-league pitchers Imani Abdullah, Trevor Oaks, Josh Sborz and Andrew Sopko and infielder Brendon Davis will also be among the instructors in the program, which includes the following:
- LADF’s Winter Youth Baseball Camp (presented by Your SoCal BMW Centers) at Dodger Stadium from December 10–11, is open to boys and girls ages 7–12 of all abilities, for $450 per camper.
- Dodger Big League Experience Camps, with sessions at Dodger Stadium between December 13–18, for $399 per camper.
- Dodger Training Camps, at GBG Training Academy in Redondo Beach with sessions between December 13–17, are for baseball and softball players who want to focus on skill development in a more intimate environment. Cost is $249 per camper.
The Dodger Youth Camp Series builds on the success that LADF has had with its summer and winter camps, using the Dodger player development and minor league staff and partners to offer more options for youngsters in the greater Los Angeles community.
All proceeds from Winter Youth Baseball Camp, along with a portion of proceeds from Dodger Big League Experience Camps and Dodger Elite Training Camps, will benefit LADF.
