Sign-up
for the most anticipated
baseball camp of the year!
The Las Vegas Baseball Academy
Christmas Camp!
For
26 years the Las Vegas Baseball Academy (LVBA) Christmas camp
has been one of the most popular programs offered. Players
and parents have traveled from all around the country/world
to participate.
The reason this camp is considered one of the best in the
country is the instructional staff (professional scouts, college
coach’s current and former professional players), the instructor
to student ration (1:8), and the organization. This
is an active camp not a stand around camp.
