Each
year
Coast
to Coast Baseball holds a series of tryouts around the country in order to identify those players we feel have the potential to eventually play college baseball. At each event, players are evaluated in four areas: hitting, fielding, arm strength and speed. Attendees receive written notification as to whether they have qualified for the program within two weeks. Players DO NOT receive a written evaluation of their skills following the tryout. The tryout is only for identification purposes.
Registration
Register for a tryout by completing the online registration (click on REGISTRATION in the gray box above) or by calling one of our offices:
East Regional Office: (740) 373-4455
West Regional Office: (928) 854-9455
Because spots are limited, we strongly recommend completing the online registration. Once submitted, your name will be added to the roster and you will be GUARANTEED a spot to tryout. If you submit an email address, we will email you a confirmation.
Cost
The cost to tryout is $25.00 payable the day of the event. As we have had a number of bounced checks in the past couple years, ONLY CASH will be accepted. Players who attend both a tryout and hitting camp (cost for full day - $65.00) are entitled to:
BRING A BUDDY FOR FREE!!
If you intend to bring a friend for the full day, you should both register on the website. Simply present yourselves together at the registration table at the event and you will be charged one $65.00 fee.
What to Bring
Come dressed as you would for practice. Bring your spikes if it is an outdoor tryout and tennis shoes or turf shoes if we are indoors. If you are a catcher, bring a full set of gear. Hitters should bring a bat.
Can’t Make a Tryout
If you cannot attend a tryout, please complete a Program Application. Your application will be reviewed by our Coaching Committee and you will be notified in writing within two weeks as to whether we can offer you a spot to travel. If you are planning to attend a tryout, please DO NOT complete the Program Application.
