The Davidson Copperheads would like to invite you to our November clinic. This year, we will be covering hitting, pitching, catching, infield/outfield play and base running. Last years clinic was a huge success and this year’s camp is shaping up to be even better. This year’s camp will be held on November 17th from 9:00 AM to 2:30 PM at Hopewell High School. Jeff Young, hitting instructor in the Arizona Diamondbacks organization, will highlight this year’s clinic.
