Nelson offers professional instruction

What was one common threat woven through the lineup of Ocean View

Little League’s Majors Division All-Star team?

Darren Nelson.

The former college All-American runs Sluggers Indoor Professional

Baseball Instruction in Huntington Beach. Nelson, who also has four years

of professional baseball experience, offers instruction from the

professional level, to Division I college ball, all the way down to

T-ball.

The site includes new equipment, excellent lighting, and a baseball

pro shop - all in a professional atmosphere.

“I have been giving lessons in the Orange County area for four years,�

Nelson said. “I give thorough instruction to all who enroll.�

Nelson said that he has instructed nine of the 12 players on Ocean

View’s 2000 Majors Division All-Star team, which reached the Little

League Western Region championship game last week.

Among the campers from Ocean View who have received private lessons

are Hank Conger, who set a new Ocean View single-season record with 33

home runs this year, and Dallas Walters. In addition, Lucas Aumiller, a

member of the Independent’s 2000 Little League Dream Team, also worked

with Nelson.

“The Ocean View players had a phenomenal season, and I’ve very excited

for their success,� said Nelson, who has references from all levels of

baseball. “They really hit the ball well during the playoffs, and their

hard work in practice really showed.�

Nelson’s Sluggers Indoor Professional Baseball Instruction is located
