TRYOUT INFORMATION
Have you asked yourself, “What opportunities are available for my son who loves to play baseball and has the skills and commitment to excel at the sport he loves?” Is your player no longer challenged by league baseball nor getting the developmental coaching that they deserve? If so, then playing with Invaders Baseball is the place for your family.
Our structured comprehensive development program is built on years of experience and success. Our program focuses on player development which begins in the off-season with training, conditioning, and skill development. Player development continues throughout the entire baseball season with access to professional instruction and training. Invaders Baseball, along with the instructors at our two locations, strive to develop athletes so they reach their maximum potential.
Invaders Baseball is not just another travel baseball program entering numerous tournaments trying to load up a trophy case. Tournaments are used to measure player development and team success. High school age teams play in showcase tournaments as well as participate in our hosted personal scouting combines at collegiate venues. Both showcases and combines put players in front of college recruiters allowing a direct opportunity to showcase their skills. It is also great to get experience visiting different college campuses to help you find the right fit for your athlete. Our goal is to provide your player the knowledge and resource to aid in helping them earn a spot on an NCAA roster.
You might ask yourself, “all of this sounds great, but it has to be expensive?” A program like this does cost more than a traditional travel baseball program. Our experience has proven that simply practicing and playing baseball does not achieve the complete athlete. To help with the expense of the program, payment plans are available. Additionally, each team at Invaders Baseball operates as a non-profit organization allowing families the opportunity to participate in fundraising events to offset player costs.
Families need to be reminded that developing a baseball player is not something that is done with a few lessons, team practices, and a jersey on a travel baseball team. Developing a baseball player is a journey. We believe that during the time your player will be with us, he will be in the best hands in the area to lead them through this journey. We will ask your son to practice often, whether that is with us in a session, at practice, working in the weight-room, or in their back yard at home. Additionally, families need to understand that this program is not for everyone and if players/ families are not fully committed to the program they will not realize the success it offers.
Below is an online prospect questionnaire that will be forwarded to our Player Development; from that point our Directors of Player Development will send you emails about tryouts, dates, times, and will answer any questions about the program you may have.
If you are interested in showcasing your skills in front of our coaches/ staff, please fill out the questionnaire and you will be contacted with available dates for a tryout.
