A Word to the Wise
Are you the graduating high school senior this year who has a deal for college beginning in the fall of 2010?
Are you a player still looking to get a deal this spring before you graduate?
If so you do not want to take this summer off---you want to arrive on the college campus at the end of the summer in the best baseball shape you can be in--the returning players are going to be in great shape and if you are not, it will make you look bad right from the outset---you need to know that going to the next level is not high school baseball--
BE READY---the first week you will be made to run until you "puke"---you will be pushed to and beyond limits you never knew existed---not to scare you guys but it is FACT
BE READY

What do you want out of baseball ??
A few tips for the HS player before he decides to play in any program:
01-- Make sure you and the coaching staff mesh---there is nothing worse than being on the team and not getting along with the coaches---your personality and theirs must mesh
02-- Make sure they play the type of ball you like to play--if you are slow afoot and the team philosophy is built around speed then this team may not be for you. And the opposit is true -- there nothing like being a speedster and the team doesn't play a game that utilizes speed
03-- Does the team play in tournaments to be seen and expose the players or just to win trophies--usually the teams seeking the hardware are not entered in high profile events that are attended by college scouts--the player has to know what he wants
04-- If you are a pitcher you want to research the team you are interested in or the team that invites you so that you can get a handle on how they handle their pitchers---do they overwork them ?---do they give the arms proper rest between outings/
05 -- How much travel is there involved?--most teams cost about the same to play for--it is the travel costs that will kill your pocketbook because the travel costs are usually over and above the playing fee
06-- How large a roster does the team carry? Knowing this will give you an idea as to how the playing time will be allotted.
Good luck in tour search
