North Fraser Nationals 13U & 15U Prospect Development Camp
Building tomorrow’s College Prep and AAA athletes—starting today.
The North Fraser Nationals—powered by Burnaby Baseball Association and Vancouver Community Baseball—are committed to developing the next generation of elite players across the region. This Prospect Development Camp is designed specifically for 13U and 15U athletes who want to accelerate their growth, sharpen their skills, and begin preparing for future opportunities within the 18U College Prep and AAA programs.
While players are encouraged to attend all sessions, our coaching staff will evaluate athletes at every session they participate in.
Why This Camp Matters for 13U & 15U Players
This is not just a camp—it’s an early gateway into the Nationals’ high‑performance pathway. Athletes will receive advanced instruction normally reserved for older divisions, giving them a head start on the technical, physical, and mental skills required at the 18U College Prep and AAA levels.
High‑Performance Development Focus
  • Technical Skill Refinement Position‑specific instruction for hitters, fielders, pitchers, and catchers with detailed evaluation.
  • Strength & Conditioning Development Age‑appropriate training to build power, mobility, stability, and athletic durability.
  • Baseball IQ & Strategy Situational awareness, decision‑making, and deeper understanding of rules, tactics, and game strategy.
  • Personalized Player Assessment Coaches will identify each athlete’s strengths and growth areas and provide a recommended development plan to accelerate improvement in technical skills, baseball IQ, strength, and agility.
Program Outcomes
This Prospect Development Camp plays a key role in shaping the future of the North Fraser Nationals programs:
  • Early identification of future 18U College Prep and AAA prospects
  • Building the foundation for long‑term athlete development
  • Preparing players for the competitive demands of high‑performance baseball

Coaching Staff
The 18U College Prep coaching staff, supported by Nationals alumni, will lead all on‑field instruction and evaluations. We maintain a minimum 1 coach per 10 players to ensure high‑quality assessment, individualized feedback, and a professional development environment.
​

The 13U Spring Season is tiered into two levels (A, AA).  The “AA” program is designed for the more competitive players with travel involved and the “A” program is designed for recreational play. 
​Teams will play an interlocking schedule consisting of 15 to 20 games (depending on number of teams) against other associations.  All home games are played at Hardwood Park or Kensington Fields and travel to the other association parks for away games. 

​Leads off are permitted and the balk rule is introduced. Pitch count rules will be in effect to protect the young pitchers from injury. All pitch counts will be according to BC guidelines.  The base paths are set at 70 feet and the distance from home plate to the pitching rubber is set at 48 feet.  The fences are set at a minimum of 200’ in left & right fields and 225’ in center field, to a maximum of 225’ in left & right fields and 260’ in center field.  A regulation game is 7 innings and may not be called earlier unless it is for a permitted reason.  Players are expected to help and support their team mates, and exhibit respect and good sportsmanship towards umpires, coaches and other players, win or lose.
