Tryout Information

At Sharks Baseball Academy, we evaluate players through a structured, age-appropriate process that emphasizes skill development, baseball IQ, and overall team fit.

Our goal is to help every player reach their full potential while ensuring that each family understands how our program works and what we value—effort, attitude, and a willingness to learn.

Tryouts include evaluations of fielding, hitting, throwing, base running, and coachability. We welcome individual players as well as full or partial teams interested in joining the Sharks program.

Players only need to attend one tryout. However, attending two tryout sessions is recommended whenever possible to provide our coaching staff with a more complete evaluation.

Our evaluations focus on baseball fundamentals, athletic ability, coachability, effort, attitude, and a willingness to learn.

Dates and Times

Ages 6 through 10. We are hosting tryout sessions to evaluate players and form rosters for the upcoming Fall 2026 / 2027 season.
