Our organization is committed to nurturing talented athletes who demonstrate both skill and dedication, and we welcome individuals who are passionate about taking their game to the next level.
To become an Iowa Prospect, the first step is to participate in our tryout process. Our tryouts serve as the gateway for aspiring athletes to showcase their abilities and earn a spot on one of our competitive teams. The tryout process is carefully designed to provide a comprehensive assessment of each player’s skills, athleticism, and baseball IQ.
During tryouts, participants will engage in a series of drills and evaluations led by our experienced coaching staff. These drills cover all facets of the game, including hitting, fielding, pitching, and base running. Our coaches will closely observe each player’s performance, assessing their strengths and areas for improvement.
In addition to on-field evaluations, our tryouts also include opportunities for players to showcase their character, attitude, and work ethic. We believe that these intangible qualities are just as important as physical skills and are integral to building a successful team culture.
After tryouts, players will be notified of their placement within the Iowa Prospects organization. Successful candidates will have the opportunity to join one of our teams and participate in a season of competitive play, training, and development.
We’re excited to announce that our tryouts for the upcoming season will be held in June. This is your chance to step up to the plate, showcase your talent, and become part of the Iowa Prospects family. Stay tuned for more details on specific dates, times, and locations for tryouts, and prepare to seize the opportunity to become an Iowa Prospect. We can’t wait to see you on the field!
