The recent Spider Youth Baseball Camp offered a unique learning experience for players who learned from a baseball staff which consists of the University of Richmond Baseball coaches Tracy Woodson, RJ Thomas, Nate Mulberg, Collin Radack and Eric Hill.
Each player received instruction through one-on-one participation and small group work according to age. Players participated in drills and teaching sessions that helped them understand the fundamental skills that are used at each position and offensively.
