Throughout the clinic, local coaches teach the children basic baseball fundamentals, such as throwing, hitting, running, catching, and fielding techniques, while sharing essential values from Derek Jeter’s autobiography, The Life You Imagine, which focuses on setting youth on a healthy, successful path.
