ABOUT CRIMSON BASEBALL ACADEMY
Thank you for choosing to participate in one of the Crimson Baseball Academy events. Our programs present a terrific opportunity for prospective student-athletes to showcase their abilities and receive professional instruction from Harvard head coach Bill Decker, his staff, and other college coaches from top academic programs.
Our one-day clinic is structured for players to showcase their abilities through individual position play and skill work, a pitcher only segment, an offensive showcase, hitting instruction, and a pro-style evaluation. A general discussion on academic enhancement, the college selection process, and sports nutrition and performance will be addressed during the clinic. There will also be a Q & A with the working college coaches in attendance.
Bill Decker has organized and run camps/clinics for over 30 years; be assured he and his camp staff will provide a well-organized, first-class event with energy and quality instruction. Early registration is strongly recommended.
Additional information will be sent to all participants (via email provided during registration) one week prior to the start of the clinic.

CANCELLATION POLICY
We do not offer refunds on cancelled participants, just a future clinic credit if you decide to cancel. We do have a “cancellation protection” of $50.00 to allow registrants some peace of mind in case plans change. Due at the time of registration, this protection entitles you to a full refund of camp fees should you cancel your registration more than 14 days prior to the start of the clinic. If you cancel within 14 days of the start of your session, we will give you camp credit for all money paid. The credit is valid for three years from camp date. Credit with insurance is transferable to family members or friends, and good toward a future clinic.
