“With the professionalism GBL has exhibited while coordinating E-Networks Baseball Star, many of the sponsoring agencies suggested we offer a wider variety of opportunity by way of baseball camps. We guarantee that these camps will be run with the same philosophy of providing all children with the opportunity to develop sports skills in a fun and non-competitive environment,” the release stated.

“GBL programmes are designed to engage the imagination of the youth of today. Our energetic staff implements a unique camp atmosphere, which allows for safety, fun, and skills development. All GBL camps will focus on helping the kids learn the rules of the game while working on sportsmanship,” the release added.

All of the E-Networks Baseball Star contenders will be attending the camps.
