Amazing Day for Baseball with American Little League

Our foundation held a free baseball clinic in February at Gene Robertson Park for over 300 kids. This clinic was organized by American Little League, in hopes to inspire and encourage our local youth to participate in baseball.

  • Alex V. (Age: 9)

    Ernie Camacho is so patient when he coaches me. When I miss the ball sometimes, he doesn’t yell at me like some coaches. He is very patient and that makes me happy!

  • Sammy V. (Age: :14)

    Ernie Camacho has helped me in so many ways. He is really easy to work with, and what he teaches me, has made a huge difference in my baseball skills.

  • Diego V. (Age: 16)

    Ernie really makes me feel confident about my skills and work ethic! His knowledge of baseball is amazing and he boosts my life in so many ways.

    Ernie Camacho has taught me the correct mechanics more than any other coach has. He has raised my level of play and has prepared me for anything in my future.
