PIRATES BASEBALL SUMMER CAMPS TESTIMONIALS

Hear directly from satisfied families following their Pirates Baseball Summer Camps experiences last summer!

My son had a great time at camp! I was very impressed that not only did they teach baseball skills, but they really emphasized on being a good teammate/individual. I think that is almost as important, if not more important, for kids to learn. I was able to watch the extra batting practice and really enjoyed it. Obviously, I think his favorite part was the trip to PNC Park. He talked the whole way home about it. Thanks again Pittsburgh Pirates! - Jen P., Shady Side Academy

Very organized and well ran. My son had an absolute blast learning from the coaches and growing as a ball player. I was pleasantly surprised to see the themes for each day as seeing beyond the "fundamentals" is something he needed work on and hearing them from your coaches helped him realize that it's not just his 10U coaches but what the Pirates learn too! - Leanna W., Shady Side Academy

My son had a great experience. He said that his coach was the best he has ever had. - Susan D., Shady Side Academy

The Pirates Baseball Summer Camp was a wonderful experience for my son. He loved the tour of PNC Park and enjoyed the award presentation on Friday. - Arianne B., The Ellis School

My son (and his friends who attended with him), greatly enjoyed this camp. We had my son enrolled in a number of camps this year, and so far this has been his favorite. I was very impressed with how well organized things were, my son and his friends loved the variety of activities and that every day wasn't exactly the same. They had the best time down at PNC Park and loved that. I also really enjoyed hearing about the mental/attitude fundamentals that they try to teach the kids - I feel like this is so very important for kids at this age and really liked that it was incorporated into the camp. Excellent job! - Jennifer B., The Ellis School

My son really enjoyed the Pirates baseball camp. He participated in several camps this summer and this was his favorite. We appreciated that he was able to play on a team with some of his little league teammates. The drills were ones that he has not experienced at other camps or practices and we will try at home! - Meghan O., The Ellis School

We've run into our son's coach a few times since camp and she's always so sweet - it makes me happy that my kid was with such a nice counselor all week. She was nice when she didn't have to be - outside of camp - so that means a lot. This was our second year at camp and not our last :-) - Becky S., McCandless Athletic Association
