Hi All,

2018 is getting invitations from several Sunshine State Conf schools to attend their camps. I'm not sure that we have the time or the money to be able to travel down there and attend them all, but maybe we can plan a trip down there around a showcase.

Any suggestions for showcases with good attendance from that conference?

Thanks for looking!

Depending on talent, you might look into securing a roster spot on a team playing in the WWBA Championship in Jupiter, FL. In October.  I would guess every college from that conference along with hundreds of other college coaches will be there.  If you get on a team I would suggest letting colleges you are interested know and giving them your schedule.

It is, by far without question, the biggest scouting attraction in all of baseball.  Finding a roster spot might be difficult, but worth a try.

Other than that, people should contact colleges of interest and ask them, in addition to their camps, which events are best.

It's fairly certain my 2017 will end up at 1 of 2 SSC schools.  He's about 85% sure that he doesn't want to play in college, but we've given some attention to the baseball programs - just in case.

I don't know what your time frame is, but there are a few options if you have time...

Showball mentioned above is a good option.  There are a lot of schools in attendance.  It's a camp - not a showcase, so the players do get to interact with the coaches a bit.

There are smaller camps put on by Top96 (top96baseball.com) that are usually run out of Lynn University in Boca Raton.  Not sure when the next is, but they always have good representation from the SSC schools.

Prospect Connect (prospectconnect.org) puts on small showcases that usually has many SSC schools in attendance as well.

Of course as PG mentioned, WWBA will have everyone there.  

My son is looking to stay in S. Florida for college (he's a beach kid) so we've visited many of the SSC schools.  Feel free to ask if you have any specific questions.  If I don't know the answer, I probably know someone who does.

Is he a pitcher? Send a PM to TPM and ask where her son will be.

(Though, as PGStaff said, we can pretty well guess part of the answer will be Jupiter in October.)
