THE BACKSTOP BANDITS ARE COMING BACK TO SOUTH DENVER THIS WINTER!

Great catching coaches are hard to find. That’s why Backstop Bandits was formed — by catchers who’ve lived it, competed at the highest levels, and know how to connect with young athletes in a real, meaningful way. Most of our catching coaches are still playing at the college and professional levels.

At this three-day catching camp in South Denver, youth and high school catchers will train with elite instructors who teach through experience. From receiving and blocking to mobility and game awareness, every session is designed to help catchers play with more confidence and composure. With lots of coaches and limited camp slots, each catcher is guaranteed to receive hands-on attention and individualized feedback.

Backstop Bandits has built a strong reputation across Colorado for developing complete catchers — as players and exemplary humans. Founded in South Denver with the mission of building the next generation of elite Colorado catchers, Backstop Bandits has now helped 100s of catchers across the country, from the youth to professional levels. But, there’s nothing like coming back to where it all started and giving back to the community that shaped us.

Confirmed Coaches:

TURNER PRUITT - Backstop Bandits Founder; Former catcher for Fresno Pacific University and the Savannah Bananas; Arapahoe HS alum

NOLAN ACKERMAN - OG Backstop Bandit; Southeast Missouri State alum (2024 OVC champ and NCAA regional appearance); Chapparal HS alum

CARSON TINNEY - Current D1 catcher at the University of Texas; 2025 Buster Posey Award finalist; Valor HS alum

TUCKER MOORE - Current D1 catcher at Liberty University; Douglas County HS alum

  • "The very first BB camp I attended, I knew it was different than other catching camps I’ve done.

  • "It wasn’t just drills and reps, it was a full experience that pushed me mentally and physically, surrounded me with competition, and connected me with coaches who genuinely care.

  • "Every camp since then has elevated my game — from refining the little things behind the plate to showing me how to stand out as a leader and a competitor on and off the field.

  • "BB helped me find confidence in who I am as a player. I went from being just another name to someone coaches started remembering — and that momentum has carried into every season.

  • "BB camps didn’t just prepare me for baseball — they helped me believe in the path I’m on, and prepare me to problem solve when I face adversity. I owe a lot of my success to Turner and Nolan, as they are amazing mentors for me.”

TESTIMONIALS FROM PAST CAMPERS

  • “My sons have been well coached and mentored by the coaching staff of the Bandits. I would recommend a camp by the Bandits to any friends or family that have a young catcher. Turner and his coaches have been instrumental [in] providing confidence with technique and in my sons’ abilities as catchers.”

    Youth & HS parent

  • “BB has helped my son not only learn the mechanics of catching, but also the mental approach and physical preparation necessary to play at a higher level. His blocking and receiving skills are noticeably better!”

    HS parent

  • “[Catcher's] birthday wish of going to the Backstop Bandits Catcher Camp was fulfilled. These men taught the boys so well. Teaching them physically and mentally how to become a great catcher. Will definitely go back!!!”
