We are still planning on adding some tryout/hitting camp events later this fall. If you do not see an event scheduled for your area, please give us a call.
 
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. 
 

WHY ATTEND A TRYOUT

All players who attend a Coast to Coast Baseball tryout/hitting camp are entered into a database that we share with college coaches from across the country. Proudly, our alumni have gone on to compete at every level of college baseball (130 different institutions at last count) and also professionally. Because of our extensive network, we share our database information with scores of college coaches around the country.
 

Clearly our desire is to help you increase your visibility, as well as learn from our outstanding staff of coaches, by attending one of our programs in ARIZONA , FLORIDA  or PUERTO RICO . However, your information is made part of the database, and is shared with our contacts, whether or not you ever do anything beyond attending a tryout event.    

WE ARE NOT A RECRUITING SERVICE

We will not charge you $200-$500 for a glossy packet of information that will be sent to the universities of your choice and then summarily tossed in the garbage by college coaches who understand the quality of the enclosed evaluation is often directly related to how much a client paid to have it produced.

We are happy to provide guidance (FREE OF CHARGE) to players who attend our events when it comes time to send letters to college coaches or put together a highlight video.  

GETTING REGISTERED

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.

 
TRYOUT COST
The cost to tryout is $30.00 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 - $70.00) 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 $70.00 fee.
 

CANNOT ATTEND 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.
