The Korea Baseball Organization (KBO) will hold the '2026 Next-Level Training Camp Grade 10 National District Camp' at the Boeun KBO Baseball Center from the 9th to the 23rd, a total of 14 nights and 15 days.

The Grade 10 National District Camp is the final stage of the KBO youth development pipeline, which begins in earnest for middle school second-year students. Participants include outstanding graduates from the Grade 10 district camps held across three regions in June, which targeted a total of 120 players, as well as 40 top Grade 10 players selected from nationwide.

The KBO stated, "We plan to select 20 participants from this camp and dispatch them to the KBO Outstanding Youth Player Overseas Training Program, which will be held at the Invictus Athlete Performance Center at Tsukuba University in Japan next January."

The coaching staff consists of eight coaches with KBO backgrounds, including Manager Kim Han-soo, Kwon Oh-joon, Ma Jeong-gil, Kim Myeong-seong (pitching), Lee Won-seok (hitting), Lee Seong-u (catching), Chae Jong-guk (infield), and Jung Jin-ho (outfield/base running).

The coaches will instruct players on fundamentals and position-specific skill training, while two specialized training coaches will assist with physical training and injury management.

Additionally, scientific physical data measurements will be conducted to help develop and improve the physical abilities of players in their growth phase. Based on the measurement results, the physical capabilities of each player will be assessed, and individual feedback will be provided on areas requiring improvement.

This camp is being held with support from the Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism and the Korea Sports Promotion Foundation. Boeun County provides all training facilities within the KBO Baseball Center, including the baseball field and indoor practice grounds, as well as a large bus, while Dong-A Otsuka supplies water and beverages.
