In an effort to run the event in the most efficient manner possible and limiting down-time, we have created smaller groups with staggered check-in times as follows:
Check in : 4:30 – 4:50 pm
*stay for pitcher bullpens, finished around 8:15pm
Check in: 5:20 – 5:40 pm
(signed up as pitcher and position player)
*will finish at approximately 9:15pm
Check in: 6:30 - 6:50 pm
(signed up to pitch only)
*pitcher only bullpens will be complete approximately 8:15pm,
Check in: 8:40 - 9:00 pm
(signed up as an infielder/outfielder only)
*will finish at approximately 11:00pm
If for whatever reason you cannot make it on Friday, please let us know as soon as possible, so we can adjust the roster.
What to Wear: Baseball pants, hat, turf shoes (cross trainers or good tennis shoes will also work). You will be given a numbered adidas jersey at check-in.
Equipment: Bring your own equipment (BBCOR bats), catcher's need full gear to catch bullpens.
· The event will run straight through with no scheduled breaks, there will be some brief periods of down-time (especially for two-way players and catchers) so be sure to bring something to drink/snack on during these times.
· Due to the space/time constraints we have using an indoor facility it is important that you show up to register at the time shown above and leave the main field area following your workout. If you arrive early make sure that you stay clear of the main field area as balls will be flying around in a small area.
· There is limited space available for parents to watch, if you are staying to watch make sure that you are paying attention to what's going on around you.
· If you find any errors in terms of the roster, groups, etc. (see below) please notify us so we can adjust it.
· Each player in this event will have an online player profile updated with a photo, verified stats, professionally-made video of performance and a scouting report on the PrepBaseballReport.com site. If you improve on a previous mark, we will update your profile accordingly. In addition, we will be producing a series of post-event articles covering the event including Instant Analysis (within a day of the event) and position-by-position analysis features.
· The post-event coverage (processing videos, analysis features, evaluations, etc) is somewhat exhaustive in terms of the amount of work involved, so be patient as it usually takes 3-4 weeks after the event to update the profiles and publish all of the content on our website. Our goal is to do the best job possible at evaluating and then reporting on the event which does take some time.
