Holiday 2025 pitching & catching Camp w/ a Special Guest appearance from MLB Pitcher Mike Burrows

Monday december 29, 2025 - thursday January 1, 2026  

In this four-day introductory class, pitchers & catchers will learn the foundations of pitching and catching. This entails a position specific dynamic warmup routine and movement preparation with an emphasis on understanding balance, mobility, and explosiveness.

Pitchers will participate in a structured throwing routine centered around fluidity, healthy arm actions, direction, use of the lower half and finish positions. 

Catchers will participate in movements and drills centered around proper stances, receiving angles, blocking, footwork, and throwing as a catcher. 

Each session will close with bullpens as pitchers and catchers receive instruction on how to begin translating their learning to the mound or behind the plate. 

This class will be run by pitching instructor, Doug Domnarski (former UCONN Husky and professional pitcher) and catching instructor Kevin Fay (CCRI catching coach), alongside a special guest appearance from Houston Astros pitcher Mike Burrows. Mike, a Waterford High School graduate, was drafted by the Pittsburgh Pirates in 2018 and has spent parts of the past two seasons in the Pirates starting rotation. On December 19th, 2025, Mike was acquired by the Houston Astros as part of a three team trade between Houston and the Tampa Rays.
