PITTSBURGH -- The University of Pittsburgh baseball coaching staff will host nine Diamond Baseball Camps and Clinics for players ages 6-18 held intermittently from December 1997 thru July 1998 at the University of Pittsburgh's Oakland campus.
The camps, featuring instructors from six professional organizations highlighted by Dave Wallace, assistant general manager of the New York Mets and former Los Angeles Dodgers' pitching coach, Tony Dougherty, Cleveland Indians' pitcher, and Chris Snusz, Philadelphia Phillies' catcher, will primary be taught by Pittsburgh Head Coach Joe Jordano and assistant coaches Joel Dombkowski and Lou Schaper. Wallace will appear at the first session, a pitching and hitting camp, Dec. 27-30.
"The Diamond Baseball Camps and Clinics are simply a great opportunity for youths to be exposed to great baseball instruction by professional as well as collegiate instructors in outstanding Division I facilities while having a great time," Jordano said. "No other organization in the area can boast this combination."
There are six different session formats, including specialized youth camps for youngsters ages 6-12. Camps can be scheduled at satellite locations, and individualized instruction is available. Rates vary per camp, and team and group rates are available.
