For over 10 years, BaxterSports has been giving young athletes the opportunity to flex their leadership muscles with a combination of teaching, training, and then hiring them for volunteer and paid positions as coaches with proven success. An intregal part of this process is our Youth Leadership Development Program, a week-long camp for rising 8th, 9th and 10th graders which provides an intensive training experience through a combination of educational and practical exercises. BaxterSports Youth Leadership Camp is a chance for teens to learn the mental and physical aspects of coaching and leadership within the enviroment of a simultaneously occuring All Sports, All Girls or Soccer Camp.
