ABCA CONVENTION & EVENTS
Attend the World's Largest Baseball Convention each January, featuring over 50 educational coaching clinics across the main-stage clinics, Youth Coaches Session and Expo Theater. Clinic topics include pitching, hitting, fielding, strength & conditioning, team building, motivation and a variety of other topics! The Convention also features the ABCA Trade Show with more than 350 companies showcasing the latest baseball products and innovations. Other events include the Question & Answer Forums, Hot Stove and Rookie Coaches Mentorship Panel Discussions, award celebrations, networking socials and more!
The 2025 ABCA Convention is being held in Washington, D.C. from January 2-5, 2025! For those member coaches that cannot attend in-person, the clinics will once again be live streamed online! Convention registrants receive on-demand video access to all clinics from the recent convention within a month after the conclusion of the Convention. All other ABCA members receive that year's on-demand clinic videos in their account later in the membership year.
Registration for the ABCA Convention fully opens on September 1 each year, however, ABCA Members have the opportunity to take advantage of Priority Convention Registration each August! This exclusive access for current ABCA Members allows members to get registered and hold a hotel room in the ABCA discounted room block before registration opens to new and former members. If you haven't signed up for your membership yet, do so now at www.ABCA.org/apply!
Professional Development & Continuing Education Credit Documentation is also offered through participation in the ABCA Convention. Members who attend the ABCA Convention or live stream the ABCA Convention Clinics can go to www.ABCA.org/education to find out more. Documentation is uploaded directly to ABCA members' accounts after the event!
ABCA members can also attend Barnstormers Regional Coaching Clinics for free! The ABCA runs four of these one-day clinics, which feature clinic presentations, on-field demonstrations and a networking social, annually!
