The World-Renown ABCA Clinics are the highlight of the annual ABCA Convention and run the gamut of baseball topics over the course of three days. The 2025 ABCA Convention clinics, presented by ATEC, will run from Friday, January 3 through Sunday, January 5 at the Gaylord National Resort & Convention Center.
The main-stage clinic speakers at the ABCA Convention are arranged annually by the ABCA Second and Third Vice Presidents. ABCA Second Vice President John McCormack (Florida Atlantic) and Third Vice President Jim Cahill (North Forsyth (Ga.) High School) are compiling an outstanding lineup of nearly 25 speakers for the clinics. The clinics will kick off with a presentation featuring a presentation from the head coach who secures the 2024 NCAA Div. I National Championship, determined in Omaha in June. The full speaker lineup will be unveiled in early September!
Following each presentation, the clinic speaker will engage in a Question and Answer breakout session with all attendees.
For those members unable to attend the Convention in-person, the ABCA will once again offer a Clinic Live Video Stream, which will feature all of the Main-Stage presentations and Q&A Forums, as well as the Youth Coaches Session clinics.
All coaches who register for the 2025 ABCA Convention or ABCA Clinic Live Video Stream will receive the entire set of on-demand clinic videos from the event, which includes the Main-Stage, Youth Coaches Session and Expo Theater presentations, in their ABCA account by February 1, 2025. All other ABCA members will receive access to the on-demand video set as part of their membership benefits later in the membership year.
The 2025 ABCA Convention is slated to take place at the Gaylord National Resort & Convention Center in Washington, D.C. from January 2-5, 2025! Marking the return of the World's Largest Baseball Convention to the nation's capital for the first time since 1975, the annual event draws over 8,000 baseball coaches from around the world for four days of continuous baseball excitement! Registration opens to everyone on Tuesday, September 3, with exclusive Priority Registration access granted to 2023-24 ABCA Members in August before opening to everyone.
