A Day at Legends Camp

Our mornings begin with detailed instruction working on a variety of areas including hitting, pitching, catching, fielding (infield and outfield play), base running, sliding, and making plays.

Later in the morning we put these lessons to use in our unique combination of games, contests and challegnes that develop camper skills – all while getting quality repetitions and building confidence through fun contests, challenges & games!

In the afternoons, players are grouped by age and ability to form teams for the week.  Teams play against each other, putting to use the skills they’ve learned in the morning camp into game situations. 

Coaching emphasis shifts to teaching “in-the-game” skills, such as situational awareness, having a hitting approach and communicating with teammates.

FRIDAY FUN!  Fridays are the highlight of every Legends camp!

  • The entire camp is dividend into 2 teams, and compete against each other in the famous Baseball Olympics – combining all of the the baseball skills, life lessons and game strategies they’ve learned over the week for the highly-coveted Legends Championship!

A letter from the Camp Director:

David Klein and happy camper

Going into our 9th year of summer camps, I feel extremely blessed and fortunate to have such a loyal customer base hear in Menlo Park and the surrounding area. We have seen such overwhelming support we have now outgrown the fields of Menlo Park and must look to other towns for field space! As a result we are excited to announce we are holding camp in Palo Alto and Redwood City in addition to our Menlo Park location.

Over the years I have befriended and worked with numerous camp parents and their smiling children; I am always genuinely delighted to see camper families return every summer ready to have fun and learn more about the game of baseball. From the 10 kid camps at Red Morton to the 50 kid camps at Nealon Park, there are many who have been with us since the very beginning. I feel privileged to have had the opportunity to make a meaningful impact on so many children and their development. As Legends Baseball Camp continues to grow and evolve our objective is to continuously improve and find unique ways to enhance the camp experience. Our continued focus and goals are as follows: (1) engendering a love of baseball in every single camper– from the first timer, to the all-star (2) teaching valuable life lessons through the game and its challenges (3) developing sound fundamentals and confidence through repetition, trust and constant positive reinforcement (4) preach and exemplify our motto for baseball success “have fun, work hard, play hard!”

Although Legends camp has grown considerably over the years, we are committed to generating the same intimate, “small camp” vibe by offering the most competitive camper to coach ratio around (about 5:1). We believe this is a big part of the “Legendary formula” as it allows the children to develop meaningful relationships with their camp coaches and maximize repetitions and individual attention.

Once again, I would like to express how grateful I am for all the support and loyalty we have felt over the years. We wouldn’t have such an incredible community based youth camp and semi-pro team with you! I hope you and your families have a LEGENDARY baseball season and see you this summer!

Sincerely,

David Klein
Legends Baseball Camp Director
