About The Diamondbacks Training Centers

The D-backs Training Centers have been in existence for eight seasons and over 17,000 kids have "Learned to Play the Diamondbacks Way!" Now it's even to easier to learn how the pros do it. Enrollment is limited to ensure an instructor-to-student ratio of no more than 1:10. In fact, you will often see smaller group sizes to provide the best possible learning environment. That's why kids keep coming back. From basic fundamentals to advanced player evaluations, the wide variety of training programs are designed and are evolving to meet Arizona's growing baseball.  Each camp day and session is highly choreographed to maximize participation and activity time. Our instructors are handpicked by our organization from a group of former professional players, as well as the best local collegiate and high school coaches.

Training Center staff members are available to answer any questions you may have.  E-mail questions or concerns to attc@dbacks.com or call 800-821-7152. Register early to ensure the Diamondback Camp is not cancelled in Yuma.  Register online at www.dbacks.com/camps.
