All players wanting to tryout must have a completed physical packet turned into the SGP training staff before January 22nd. The trainers will issue you a red slip that you must turn in to the baseball coaches at registration. No red slip, no tryout.
Please view the necessary forms and guidelines set by the district here.
Our tryout process will mirror that of a typical MLB tryout where will be able to evaluate all players speed, arm strength, fielding ability, ability to hit, and ability to hit for power.
