In association with Hershey Little League and The Harrisburg Senators, we are pleased to announce a professionally instructed summer baseball program. This instructional play is for players already in the tee ball, coach pitch and minors programs. It will run for 5 Days from July 20th to July 24th. Practice play will consist of footwork and fielding drills, a throwing program, pitching and catching mechanics, swing analysis, and hitting drills. Game play will be the second half of each session and will be instructional where play is stopped periodically to coach on the field. Players will be evaluated and divided into groups based on skill level and age.

The Instructor, Melvin Dorta, brings a wealth of experience to Palmyra having played 12 seasons in professional baseball. As a middle infielder and outfielder, he played in the Boston Red Sox, Montreal Expos, Washington Nationals, Pittsburgh Pirates, Baltimore Orioles, and Philadelphia Phillies organizations. While in the Washington Nationals organization, he made it to the major league in the 2006 season. A Harrisburg Senators player will be attending one or two of the sessions. There will be opportunity for pictures and autographs at that time. Date TBA

 

If you are interested in this unique program in Hershey, please fill out the attached page and return to the address below ASAP as space is limited to 40 players. For those interested in helping to coach or brush up on coaching skills, there will be a FREE coaching clinic on July 19 from 6-8PM. Places TBA (Those volunteering in the program MUST attend and must have volunteered in an HLL program this year).
