Itching to learn

Hello!

Do any of you have any information you can share about this seemingly new organization conducting tryouts and a clinic locally? (USA Showcase Baseball)

Who are they?
Where did they come from?
Who is Mike Richards who's doing the promotion?
What is their background?
Who are their coaches?

It sounds like a good program but I am curious because I can't seem to find any information on them. Any insight is appreciated.

Perhaps you should email them directly. It's hard to have any opinions on something so new.

They called when I asked about tryouts and I was told the following:
They will only play Perfect Game at 13u, if no PG then TC
1 paid coach at games, I think he gave me a name...
Lakepoint is practice field in fall, not sure if I asked about spring.
They want big kids -size was very important to him.
Speed and agility not important.
They are going to be a Major team:)
I wasn't sure I wanted to tryout, but he was willing to just meet son to see if he was athletic.

We didn't attend the tryout, so I can't offer anymore info.
