The Barrie Baycats will be hosting another big summer of camp for kids ages 5-14! Coming up, in July 2025, the Baycats will host four weeks of baseball camps to accommodate the demand and make sure everyone gets a chance to register.
The camps will be divided into Rep/Select, and House League/Beginner. There will be 3 weeks of Rep/Select, with a 2-week and a 3-week package at a discounted rate. Your child does not need to be registered for a Rep or Select program to sign up for this camp, it just means it's the more competitive camp of the two.
