Slammers Major League Players Camps

Slammers Training Academy has been host to multiple camps conducted by Major League Ballplayers, as well as being a winter training home to dozens of Professional Ballplayers. Since our Slammers Illinois facility opened in 2008, we have had many Big Leaguers train local players.
