The information below is for Showcase Camps and does NOT apply to the Elite Winter Camp

PLEASE be sure to complete on the registration form a valid               e-mail address that is checked regularly. Your confirmation letter will be sent to the e-mail address you put on your registration form.**

Weekend Schedule:  All players will receive a detailed schedule at check in.  Small changes could be made (different from what you read on your confirmation letter) if necessary.

Check in on Saturday morning starts at 9:30am and finishes at 10:00am.  Nobody can check in early so it is not to your advantage to arrive much earlier than 9:30am.  Players should be fully dressed when they report for check in, except cleats, and ready to report directly to the field.  They should carry their gear bag with them to the check in area.  PARENTS SHOULD ATTEND THE 10-10:30 SESSION @ THE CHECK IN AREA

A more detailed schedule is available on the registration form and on the confirmation letter.

Saturday's events typically finish up between 4pm - 5pm. Players then have a break to shower, check in to their hotel and have dinner on their own.  The 'Reality' Recruiting Forum begins promptly at 7:30pm.  This is extremely important information for BOTH player and parents. The recruiting forum lasts about 2 hours.

On Sunday all players play in one game.  The game schedule is posted at check in and also distributed with the weekend schedule the players receive at check in. Parents can pick up a copy of all schedules at the stadium.

Cost: 2011 Fee, $325 per player, per showcase camp.

Can I register online?:

Yes, there will be a "register online" link when registration opens.

To register online with the downloadable form:  Download a copy of the registration form. Save it on your computer. Complete the form including payment information. Return to via email as an attachment. 

What is the registration deadline?

For all of our Showcase Camps there is no set deadline. When positions are full a waiting list in each position is started. When the waiting list is full submitted registrations are returned or players are given the option to attend a different date.  Registration closes @ 5pm the night before the showcase starts.

How do I know if my registration form was received by Baseball Instructional Showcase Camps?

Registrants will receive a confirmation letter within 3 weeks of mailing in their registration at the e-mail address provided on their submitted  registration form.  If you do not please call or e-mail to check on the status of your registration immediately.  Exceptions cannot be made for lost mail if the showcase camp fills up in your position(s). 

How do I know if I made the showcase camp roster?

When you are placed on the roster your confirmation letter will be e-mailed to the e-mail address provided on the registration form. If your position is full when your registration form arrives you will be placed on the waiting list (scroll down for more information about the waiting list). You will be notified @ the e-mail address you provide on your registration form that you have been placed on the waiting list.

What is the "waiting list'?

All positions have a predetermined number of players placed on the roster for each showcase camp.  If your primary position is full when you send your registration form you are placed on the waiting list in your primary position (in the order that all registrations are received). When/if cancellations happen the player at the top of the waiting list in that position is given the opportunity to attend.  If you are on the waiting list you should not plan to attend unless you have gotten a phone call that there has been a cancellation and you have been confirmed that you are on the roster. 

Players being placed on the waiting list will be notified by letter via usps or e-mail.  If you are placed on the waiting list you typically have 3 options:  #1.  stay on the waiting list and wait for cancellations / transfers to come in and if a spot comes available for you you can be added to the roster #2.  attend in your secondary position if your secondary position has room, or #3. transfer your registration to a later showcase camp date that has space available in your primary position. 

In order to be placed on the waiting list a player must complete the registration form and submit with full payment.  The payment is held until the player gets moved onto the roster OR until the Friday before the showcase camp the player does not make the roster.  If the player does not make the showcase camp roster their payment information (check or credit card info.) is destroyed.  If you registered online  you will receive  full credit back to your account.  There is no fee to be placed on the waiting list but a player must submit a form of payment and a completed registration form to be placed on the waiting list. 

Can I receive/view a list of schools planning to attend?

Yes. One week prior to each showcase camp a list of coaches attending will be available on this website under the "who's watching" tab.  It is updated daily until the showcase camp event. 

If you have a list of schools that you are especially interested in and want to know if they are planning to attend a showcase camp prior to the list being made available on this website, it is in your best interest to contact each program's baseball coaching staff directly via phone, letter or e-mail. 

What SAT scores do I record on the registration form?

It is to your benefit to provide all information requested on the registration form.  These scores are available on your SAT testing results. 

What if I took the ACT instead of the SAT?

If you took the ACT instead of the SAT be sure to send that test score instead. For mail in registrations, simply mark through the SAT and write in ACT.

I have not taken the SAT yet. What should I put on the registration form?

In the blanks for SAT scores simply put the date you are scheduled to take the SAT or ACT or if registering online leave blank.

Who do I make the check out to?
