Welcome to Rising Star Baseball Camp      
Welcome to Rising Star Baseball Camp. This New York based baseball camp draws athletes (boys & girls ages 4-15) from Long Island, Westchester County, the Bronx/Queens, and Connecticut. While many campers enrolled in this baseball camp reside in Pelham, Scarsdale, New Rochelle, Larchmont, Bronxville, Rye, Mamaroneck, and Greenwich, CT, numerous players come from all over the tri-state area. Several campers have come from other countries, including Japan, Finland, Ireland, Bahamas, Scotland, Hong Kong, and Nigeria (Africa). The camp is currently being held at newly renovated, state-of-the-art Glover Field (click for directions) in Pelham, New York. The baseball camp program is split into four separate age categories: Rookie Ball (ages 6-8), Single A Ball (ages 9-10), AA Ball (ages 11-12), and AAA Ball (ages 13-15). Among the various day camps in Westchester County, the sophisticated drills and activities are unique compared to all other area baseball camps in New York. An excellent camper to coach ratio combined with instruction from coaches with college and professional playing experience has helped the camp produce several active professional players, dozens of current college baseball players, and hundreds of high school players.
