SOUTH SUBURBAN COLLEGE TO HOST HOLIDAY BASKETBALL AND BASEBALL CAMPS

SOUTH HOLLAND, IL – The South Suburban College Basketball and Baseball Programs will return two Holiday Camps to SSC’s Main Campus in South Holland just before the New Year.

First, Head Baseball Coach Steve Ruzich will be directing a two-day Catching Camp on Thursday, December 26th and Friday, December 27th from 1:00 p.m. – 4:00 p.m. Coach Ruzich has directed youth camps for the past 28 years and has taught baseball skills at many other baseball camps throughout the state.  This clinic will provide catching instruction in the areas of blocking, calling a game, pick offs, pop throwing times, stance and footwork, drills for practice, pop ups, handling pitchers, and conditioning. In addition to Ruzich’s instruction, Bulldog baseball players will be on hand to help and develop skills.  The Catching Camp is open to ages 8-18.  All players should bring their glove and gear.  All participants should wear baseball or sweat pants and gym shoes, and boys must wear cups.  The cost of the Catching Camp is $100, and checks should be made payable to SSC Bulldog Baseball. 

Men’s Basketball Team will host their 8th annual Holiday Basketball Camp for boys and girls ages 7 to 17.  Campers will learn from the highly experienced staff of the SSC Men’s Basketball Team and current Bulldog players.  The two-day camp will take place on Monday, December 30th and Tuesday, December 31st from 9:00 a.m. - 3:00 p.m. in the SSC Fitness Center.  The cost of the camp is $65 per camper.  Pizza, snacks, and refreshments will be on sale for lunch.
