Kentwood alumnus Reese McGuire, a first round draft pick by the Pittsburgh Pirates in 2013, is scheduled to make an appearance at the clinic.

The session will be led by Kentwood coaching staff and current players. The clinic will cover a variety of skills such as throwing, catching, bunting, base running and more, as well as give players strategies for continued improvement.

The clinic costs $30 for pre-registration and $35 the day of the session. Proceeds from the clinic will go to support Kentwood baseball.
