Camp Highlights

Camper to Staff Ratio - We make every effort to have an excellent counselor to camper ratio. This ensures quality instruction and individual attention.

Gear - Each camper receives a Nike camp tee shirt. Elite Prospect Campers receive a numbered tee shirt as well as a hat and a pair of shorts.

Quality Facilities - Carolina Baseball Camps are held at the $26m Bryson Field at Boshamer Stadium located in the heart of campus.

College Night - Learn About Recruiting and Carolina. If time permits and facilities are open, counselors and team managers conduct a tour of Kenan Stadium, the Dean E. Smith Center, and various other athletic and academic facilities on campus. A brief session on recruiting and what college coaches look for will be offered (Elite Prospect Camps only). Coaches and counselors will answer questions about NCAA rules and regulations and the NCAA Clearinghouse. Not all UNC coaches may available each camp because of recruiting commitments.

Written Assessment - Campers attending the Elite Prospect Camps will receive a standard written assessment from his particular counselor/coach. Our staff does not "grade" the camper, but critiques the camper on his abilities and tries to make suggestions on how to improve. UNC coaches normally do not complete these evaluations.
