2010 Midwest Identification Series




Do you play high level baseball in Oklahoma, Arkansas, Missouri, Kansas or Nebraska?

Do you aspire to compete against the top players on the country?

Would you like to play at the USA Baseball Training Complex in North Carolina, with the opportunity to earn a spot on the USA National Team?



If you answered yes to these questions, then the USA Baseball Midwest National Team Identification Series (NTIS) is right for you.  This event is for individual players who want to compete on the national stage.  This process immediately follows your summer baseball season, and finishes at the USA Baseball Training Complex in Cary, NC in early-September.


In 2010, we will be holding showcase-style tryout events to identify top players in the Midwest in three age groups (note, international baseball uses straight calendar year birth dates for age groups):

• 17U NTIS: for players born in 1993 and 1994 (for the 2011 18U National Team)

• 15U NTIS: for players born in 1995 and 1996 (for the 2011 16U
National Team

• 13U NTIS: for player born in 1997 and later  (for the 2011 14U National Team)

USA Baseball events are the ONLY events in the country which give players the opportunity to be evaluated to represent the United States in international competition as members of the National Team.  This is the real deal, with the top players in the country competing for the honor of representing our country in international events.

We will be holding three sub-regional showcase-style tryout events in the following locations:

For players born in 1993 and 1994, there are three events:
Tulsa OK, July 19-20
Kansas City, MO  July 19-20                  
St. Louis, MO  July 19-20

For players born in 1995 and 1996, there are two events:

Tulsa OK, July 19-20
                           
St. Louis, MO  July 26-27

For players born in 1997 and 1998, there is only one event:

St. Louis, MO  August 13-15
                         


From the sub-regional events at 15u and 17u, the top players will be invited to participate in the Midwest Regional NTIS in St. Louis on August 13-15.

All 13u players are invited directly to the Midwest Regional in St. Louis. This is because of conflicts with "world series" type events at the end of July.

This will be one of the premier summer baseball event in the Midwest, with elite players from five states competing to represent the Midwest Region at the USA Baseball complex in September.   Click on the links above for all the details, including how to register for the events.

From the Midwest Regional NTIS, we will select the top 18 players at each age group to represent the Midwest and compete against the other regions at the USA Baseball Training Complex in Cary, NC on September 10-12, 2010. The top players from the NTIS will have the opportunity to participate on the National Team.  This is a once in a lifetime opportunity for players.
