The next generation of baseball players will have the chance to learn from one of the youngest superstars in Major League Baseball.

Braves phenom and outfielder Ronald Acuña Jr. announced Thursday he will host his inaugural youth baseball camp in metro Atlanta.

The Ronald Acuña, Jr. Baseball ProCamp is scheduled for Monday June 8 at Mt. Bethel Christian Academy in Marietta. Boys and girls in grades first through eighth can attend and the camp is open to all skill levels.

Campers will participate with Acuña and coaches in hands-on instruction, lectures, baseball skill stations and games.

The camp right now costs $249, but the camp’s site says the price is subject to change at any time. Along with the camp, each participant receives:

  • a souvenir autograph from Ronald Acuña, Jr. (item provided – outside items not permitted)
  • a camp team photo with Ronald Acuña, Jr.
