Northwest Arkansas Naturals News Release


SPRINGDALE, AR - The Northwest Arkansas Naturals have once again partnered with Great Day Farms on the eighth annual FREE Youth Baseball Clinic that will take place at Arvest Ballpark from 2 p.m. until 3:45 p.m. on Saturday, June 27 in advance of that night's 6:05 p.m. game against the Tulsa Drillers, the Double-A Los Angeles Dodgers.

The Youth Baseball Clinic is open to children ages 6-12 and will cover instruction of key baseball fundamentals, including hitting, fielding, pitching, and base running. All participants will be given a complimentary Jack Link's Jerky Grass Berm ticket to that night's game that features a Replica Batting Helmet giveaway for the first 2000 fans courtesy of Great Day Farms.

Instruction during the clinic will be given by select Naturals players and coaches. Following the instruction portion of the clinic, an autograph session with the Naturals players will occur on the concourse on the 1st base side for approximately 15 minutes.

There is a sign-up form located on the Naturals website, nwanaturals.com, under the community tab that interested parents can print, fill out, and then fax or mail in to register their children for the clinic. The FREE Youth Baseball Clinic is also open to local youth coaches as they may also fill out the form and fax in their roster to register their entire teams. The deadline to register for the event is Friday, June 19 but participants are encouraged to sign up quickly, as previous events have filled to capacity prior to the deadline. Sign-up begins at Arvest Ballpark at 1:30pm on the day of the event so we ask that you arrive early as participation is limited to the first 500 children. Participants are asked to bring their glove and wear proper baseball attire.

Following the FREE Youth Baseball Clinic, the ballpark will be cleared and then gates will reopen at 5:00 p.m. for the Naturals game against the Tulsa Drillers that is scheduled to begin at 6:05 p.m. that evening. If you have any questions regarding the clinic or game, please call (479) 927-4900 or visit our website for more information regarding the event on Saturday, June 27.
