Beginning with our first clinic in 2004, our mission has been to provide you with the very best in coaching education. We have spent considerable time securing the best clinicians and designing a curriculum that addresses all levels of play and a range of coaching areas. Each year, we seek to improve your clinic experience. Building on last year's success, we are offering you post- event access to video of even more clinic sessions (close to 30 sessions!), so that you can refresh your memory or watch sessions you may have missed. Check the clinic website for more information on how to purchase these videos - we are confident you'll find them highly valuable. Also, in an effort to provide you with information in the most convenient way possible, we will again offer an event app this year (an improved 2017 version), which will provide you with the clinic schedule, presenter biographies, a list of exhibitors, a digital version of the event handout and much more. Search Baseball Coaches Convention in the app stores. Finally, in an effort to continually improve the coach experience, we are offering a Baseball Meet & Greet on Friday evening from 5:30 - 7PM, where you'll be able to meet, interact with, and ask questions of many of our presenters (we have Q & A sessions on hitting, pitching and general coaching topics planned - see the event schedule for details), spend more quality time with our sponsors and exhibitors, and enjoy a moment with your coaching colleagues.
