Former MLB Hitting and Chicago White Sox Scout host baseball camp for scholarships supporting underserved youth

Posted

MARSHFIELD – The KS Octave Foundation announced a one-day Baseball Camp on Sunday, Jan. 26, 2025, at Greenheck Field House in Schofield, Wisconsin, beginning at 8:00 AM. This event will offer young athletes in grades 5-12 the rare opportunity to train with the latest Major League Baseball technology and coaching techniques, with all proceeds benefitting scholarships for underserved youth, providing access to both educational and athletic opportunities.
Led by New York based Kedeem Octave, a former hitting coach for the St. Louis Cardinals, and Stephen Octave, an area scout for the Chicago White Sox, the camp will deliver unmatched
professional instruction. Together, the Octave brothers bring decades of combined experience to the event, offering participants a unique insight into the methods and tools used at the highest levels of baseball.
“We’re thrilled to give kids the chance to train with the same tools and technology that MLB players use,” said Kedeem Octave, Founder of the KS Octave Foundation. “We’re incorporating state-of-the-art systems like Rapsodo, cognitive function tools, and other performance technologies that provide real-time feedback, offering a training experience typically reserved for elite athletes.”
The camp will feature detailed evaluations and feedback on hitting mechanics, pitch tracking, swing analysis, and more. Participants will have access to professional-level technology to gain valuable insights into their development, helping them elevate their game to the next level.

“The mission of the KS Octave Foundation is to provide opportunities for kids in underserved communities—resources they wouldn’t typically have access to,” said Stephen Octave. “This camp is about more than just baseball; it’s about developing the mindset and discipline that athletes need to succeed in every area of life.”
In addition to skill development, the camp will focus on mentorship, instilling core values like discipline, teamwork, and dedication. All event proceeds will go toward scholarships, giving children from underserved communities the chance to pursue both athletic and academic opportunities they might otherwise miss.
Admission cost $75.
