“Spring training at Hayners has once again been a great experience. When we ended the week last year we knew we would be back again this year. Kolbie has expressed how much fun he has had making new friends and learning more about the game. As a parent I feel confident dropping Kolbie off knowing he is comfortable and safe at your camp. But the most important aspect of your program for me is the approach taken with all the boys by Norm & Ken and all the other coaches. Every child is treated equally and encouraged to do their best. For me the morning talk is just as important as learning the skills needed to be a great player.”
-Bonnie Spenburg, Schaghticoke, NY

“Hayner’s Sports Barn camps provide a perfect balance of fun, discipline and fundamental instruction.”
- Michael Napolitano, Halfmoon, NY

“I want to thank everyone at the Hayner Sports Barn for helping my son, Brian, to become a better baseball player. He had been hitting the balls 10-15% of the time during his games - but after Norm gave him instruction - he started hitting the balls 90% of the time. We noticed a huge difference in his batting ability even after the first lesson. Brian was moved up the batting lineup a little after each lesson - from the 12th spot up to 4th in line. A lot of joy comes to a parent seeing their child smile with confidence as he walks up to batting box! Brian was even chosen to be on an All-Star team by the coach after he watched Brian play at a few games!!”

Summer Camps Philosophy - Empowering Youth Through Sports!

The Sports Barn/Hayner Academy Summer Camps provide each participant with the opportunity to enjoy the sport(s) they love in a safe environment conducive to learning, skill development and most of all . . . FUN!

In addition, we believe athletic participation and competition provide the perfect environment to address the importance of sportsmanship, team play, character development and good citizenship. Empowering youth through sports to meet daily life challenges has always been a priority with all Sports Barn/Hayner Academy camps and programs!

Participants will be grouped according to age, physical maturity and skill level to ensure a positive experience. Our low player to coach ratio enables all participants to receive professional instruction and maximum individual attention.

2009 Baseball Camps

Full-day and half-day options to fit your busy family schedules!

A Commitment To Learning, Action and Excellence Since 1992

The summer of 2009 marks the 18th year that Hayner Brothers Baseball Academy has been providing baseball instruction and fun to youths in the Capital Region.

Hayner Academy camps nurture a “love of the game” attitude in each child by creating a positive, challenging, and most of all, fun environment! The camps are action oriented, emphasizing the importance of making physical and mental adjustments while establishing a solid foundation in all areas of the game. All individual skill areas and position play, as well as team offense and defense will be covered. Each day concludes with a competitive coach pitch baseball game.

Baseball camps operate Monday – Friday and are open to players from all communities, not just those from partnering leagues. Half-day and full-day options provide both the All-Star and recreation caliber player with tune up and development options to fit busy family schedules.

In addition, each week’s campers will be visited by current players from the Tri-City Valley Cats Class A minor league baseball team for discussion, autographs and pictures.
