What age group is Field of Dreams Baseball Camp for?

Our camps are open to children aged 5-16. We offer programs for all skill levels, from beginners to elite athletes.

Do I need previous baseball experience to attend?

No prior baseball experience is required! We have programs for players of all skill levels, including beginners. Our Rookie Ball Camp is specifically designed for less experienced players.

What are the different camp options?

Camp Options:

(1) Classic Camp (ages 5-15, No prior baseball experience required) at our Vaughan/Thornhill, Aurora, Scarborough, Georgina, and Caledon Camps

After 15 years we have changed/simplifed the name of our camp programs. We are no longer using the “high perormance” and “rookie ball” names. The only change is the name—the camp experience remains exactly what families have loved for 15 years. We’ve simply updated the name to make things clearer and easier for families; same program, same structure, same FOD experience.
- Campers will be grouped by age, skill level, and experience: beginner, house league, or rep, to ensure level-appropriate instruction. Rep players will continue training with rep players, beginners will learn alongside beginners, etc.
- Skill-building, teamwork, fun games, Wiffle Ball, special events, and all the ‘classic camp’ energy you expect every summer.
- All campers, will enjoy a well-rounded experience with baseball instruction, modified games, weekly skills competitions, and a fun Wiffle Ball League. Each week ends with a special award ceremony celebrating their achievements.

(2) Pro Camp (Advanced Training) At our Aurora and Vaughan/Thornhill Camps

Our Pro Camp is designed for select, rep, and elite players (or those aspiring to be) who want to train at an intensive level. The Pro camp, as the name suggests will be run by former professional, semi-pro and high level college players. We’ve recruited Jaz Shergill in Aurora and Gianfranco Morello in Vaughan, who have both played college and professional baseball all over the world.

We have integrated our Pro Camp as a stream of our main/classic camp. Campers enrolled will be able to attend Pro Camp in the mornings for an intense training session with the highest quality instruction, and then join in with our classic camp in the afternoon! This way kids can still bond with their favourite counsellors, stay connected with their friends, and don’t have to miss out on any of the summer fun (aka Wiffle Ball!!). A half day option is also available for those who just want the specialized training in the morning.

To train like a pro, you have to learn from a pro!

At Field of Dreams, our goal is to create a positive and fun environment where players develop not only their physical skills but also teamwork, sportsmanship, and a lifelong love for the game!

Where are your camps located?

Field of Dreams Baseball Camp is held at four locations across the Greater Toronto Area (GTA):

Caledon

We also offer various indoor programs throughout the year at select locations.

What are the camp hours?

Our standard camp hours are from 9:00 AM to 3:00 PM. Extended hours are available from 8:30 AM to 4:30 PM for an additional fee, giving parents more flexibility with drop-off and pick-up times.

Is the camp indoor or outdoor?

Field of Dreams Baseball Camp is a fully outdoor camp, and each location has a contingency plan in place for inclement weather to ensure the camp runs smoothly, rain or shine.

What is the Pro Camp?

Our Pro Camp is designed for players who are serious about taking their game to the next level. It is run by former professional and high-level college players, including Jaz Shergill. Pro Camp participants attend specialized training sessions in the morning, followed by fun activities and games in the afternoon. A half-day option is also available for those who prefer just the intense morning training. If you’re unsure whether Pro Camp is the right fit for your child, please reach out—we’re happy to help guide you in making the best choice

Are there any special activities at camp?

Yes! All campers participate in a variety of special activities, including modified games, weekly skills competitions, and our popular Wiffle Ball League, which adds extra fun and encourages friendly competition. Each week wraps up with an award ceremony to celebrate the campers’ achievements. Plus, we have a weekly pizza day—a favourite among campers

Is your camp just baseball?

Yes, and no! While we are a baseball-focused camp, with skill development as the main emphasis in the mornings, our afternoons offer a variety of activities tailored to each age group. For our younger players, afternoons are filled with modified games that put fun twists on baseball, like tennis baseball, soccer baseball, cricket baseball, football baseball, wiffle ball, and more. Each game reinforces baseball skills and fundamentals in a fresh, engaging way to keep campers excited, especially those joining us for multiple weeks. For our older and more competitive players, we ramp up the intensity with simulated baseball games, advanced twists on traditional baseball, and wiffle ball—a fast-paced game that gets players moving, thinking, and honing their skills. These varied activities ensure that all our campers have fun, stay engaged, and continue developing their skills throughout their time with us!

What is included in the camp fee?

The camp fee includes all baseball instruction, activities, equipment (except for gloves) and access to fun events like Wiffle Ball League and skills competitions. All campers also receive a camp t-shirt. Extended day options are available for an additional fee.

What’s the camper-to-instructor ratio?

We maintain a low camper-to-instructor ratio to ensure that each camper receives personalized attention and quality instruction. Our staff is experienced, enthusiastic, and dedicated to helping each camper grow and succeed. Our ratios may vary slightly from week to week but generally range from 5:1 to 7:1, allowing us to provide focused instruction and support

Can my child attend multiple weeks of camp?

Yes, we require medical and emergency contact information to ensure the safety and well-being of all campers. We understand it may feel like a lot of information, but it’s essential for creating a safe environment where we can keep a close eye on any specific needs your child may have. By knowing about any medical conditions, allergies, or other important details, our team can plan effectively and be ready to respond if necessary. We appreciate your help in making camp a secure and enjoyable experience for everyone!

These programs are designed to empower female athletes, build confidence, and provide skill development in a fun, supportive environment.

What is the difference between the softball camp and the baseball Classic Camp?

Our Softball Camp follows the same proven structure that has made our Classic Baseball Camp successful for 15+ years — but with drills, instruction, and gameplay tailored specifically for fastpitch athletes. Everything is adapted for softball mechanics, rules, and development needs.

Do girls need previous softball or baseball experience to join?

No experience is required! Girls of all levels are welcome — from first-timers to rep/competitive players. We group players by skill level, and our staff adjusts instruction to meet each athlete’s skill level and ensure every camper learns, grows, and feels confident.

My daughter plays rep fastpitch. Will the program challenge her enough?

Yes. Our coaching staff includes instructors with competitive fastpitch and baseball experience, ensuring that rep-level players receive advanced training. Groups are divided by age and skill so players train with peers who match their level.

Can my daughter join baseball camp instead of softball camp?

Absolutely! Girls are always welcome to register for any of our baseball camps or programs. The girls-only softball programs simply provide an extra option for girls and families who want a female-focused environment.

Will boys and girls be mixed in the softball camps or clinics?

Our softball camps and softball clinics are girls-only. Girls are welcome to join our co-ed baseball programs if they prefer a mixed environment.
