The ABCA Barnstormers Clinics, presented by ATEC, are one-day coaching clinics for baseball coaches of all levels. The clinic sessions are focused on the fundamentals, with practical position-specific drills, coaching cues and practice organization tips that can be directly applied to your individual athlete or team. Following the six clinic speaker presentations, attendees will be able to observe the host team's practice session in the afternoon, getting tips and explanations from the coaches as they conduct their team training. During the evening, the ABCA hosts an informal networking social at a local venue for any coaches that want to attend! These changes were suggested directly by members and implemented for the first time in 2022, resulting in the largest Barnstormers Clinics attendance ever!
Barnstormers Clinics are free for all current ABCA member coaches. Any coach who is not a member but would like to attend may simply join the ABCA ahead of time and sign up for the event using the links below, or join the ABCA at the event. The Barnstormers Clinics are geared towards youth, academy, high school and travel coaches and instructors in the area but are also great for any baseball enthusiast or parent who wants to learn more about the game from some of the most respected coaches in the sport.
Members can watch presentations from past Barnstormers Clinics in the ABCA Video Library!
