Winter Workout Information
Ruffnecks Winter Workouts are designed to provide Spring Training-like preparation for players to get ready for the upcoming season. The workouts are repetition oriented. High School aged players find the sessions helpful to prepare for their school teams. Winter Workouts feature full-field drills, hitting, and side sessions (for pitchers) at the NEBC during February and March 2021.
Note: Unless by invitation, Winter Workouts are for rostered Ruffnecks players only.
