The 2007 Twins Youth Clinics season has ended. Please check back in April for the 2008 schedule.

Clinics History
The summer of 2007 marks the 46th year the Minnesota Twins and the Twins Community Fund have offered free youth baseball/softball clinics. Created in 1961 by longtime Twins scout Angelo Giuliani, the clinic program serves as a way for the ball club to promote the games of baseball and softball to boys and girls throughout the region. Since the program's inception, more than 800,000 youth have taken part in Twins clinics in the Upper Midwest and Southwest Florida.

The Twins Youth Clinics have always been, and will continue to be, available to participants and communities free of charge. Funding for Twins Youth Clinics is provided by the Twins Community Fund and clinic sponsors.

The Twins Youth Clinic program was created in 1961 by longtime Twins scout Angelo Giuliani. Since that time, more than one million Upper Midwest and Southwest Florida youth have participated in a Twins Youth Clinic.

Clinics Format
Twins Youth Clinics are designed to teach basic fundamentals including hitting, fielding and throwing, while also providing participants with positive messages about staying in school and away from drugs and alcohol.

No registration is required to participate in a clinic.

The clinics provide quality hands-on instruction for boys and girls ages 6-16. The format is broken down into two 1-1/2 hour sessions. The first session is for youth ages 6-9 years old and the second session is for youth ages 10-16. Participants are divided into three groups and rotated between hitting, fielding and throwing stations.
