DOTHAN – The annual Bobby Pierce Troy University Baseball Camp swings into action Wednesday, July 12 in Dothan. Boys and girls between the ages of 6 and 13 (grades 1-8) are invited to participate in the camp, which will be held at the Dixie Youth Complex at Westgate Park.

During the one-day camp, Troy University Head Baseball Coach Bobby Pierce and his coaching staff will help campers improve their hitting, fielding, catching and throwing skills.
