Welcome and thank you for visiting the Northwood University Timberwolves Baseball camp homepage. We are looking forward to another great camp season and hope you can join us for one of our events! We pride ourselves on providing a first-class experience for all of our campers, coaches, teams, and spectators!

Attention: Due to the Covid-19 Virus, the following will be protocols used to promote health & safety at our upcoming events:

1) Each camp participant will have their temperature taken upon arrival.

2) Everyone who comes onto campus will fill out a COVID screening/waiver form upon arrival to Northwood. This involves confirming that they do not have any symptoms of COVID-19 (cough, shortness of breath, fever, headache, sore throat, congestion/runny nose, loss of taste or smell, nausea/vomiting, diarrhea).  If they have any symptoms, they should NOT come.

3) Spectators who fill out COVID screening/waiver are encouraged to remain in the vehicle, come back to pick up campers, or can watch camps from the grass berms as long as social distancing is taking place.

4) Anyone who has had direct contact with an individual with a known case of COVID-19 within the last 14 days, is NOT allowed on campus.

5) Masks are required upon arrival but are not required when participating during camp where social distancing is present.

6) Social distancing is expected throughout the facility.

7) There will be hand sanitizer available in both dugouts.

8) Water will be provided, but there will be no cups provided or sharing of water bottles. Please bring your own.
