Blue-Grey Classic @ Wake Forest

My sons going. We've never been. The only thing I can say is this particular showcase was recommended to my son by a scout with a major league team. We will be at the second session also.

Thank's for the reply, this is our very first "Showcase" of any kind. My son is going to be a junior this coming year, and just don't have any idea what to expect. Basicly if he has a good time and enjoys it, it will be a success.

According to the brochure - 1st day: 4 hour group workout. Run 60 for time, throw from basic position (of,if,c), and I think hit (don't have it in front of me).
2nd and 3rd day: I believe they say 3 games to be played.
Have fun. Maybe I'll run into you all.
Drink lots of sweet iced tea and catch a drawl (you'll be in the South you know!).

Thanks Tim, hopefully we will run into each other. I understand the format, I was looking more like when we get there how do the boys meet their coaches, do they get a uni of some kind, after the last day's games, are we free to leave? That kind of stuff, but I guess we will find out when we get there. Should be fun, definitely looking to catch a "drawl" while we are there. Thanks again.

From what I've seen and heard, Wake Forest is the best Blue-Grey event attracting the most scouts. Couldn't go for financial reasons.

My son will be playing at the B/G Classic at Coastal Carolina U. It fit our schedule better.

Yeah, I heard that from a few different people who are unable to go to this one because of the TPX Top 96, timing is very tight with that. I didn't know about the Top 96 until very late, and by then it was completely filled. My son did get into the PA one, but we decided to try this one and see how things went.

The New England TOP96 in Lowell fills up very quickly each year. You have to keep checking the website over and over until the link to sign up for it becomes "hot". By the time it allowed us in to that section to sign up it was already full. Guess I was too slow on the trigger. They must have had a lot of unfilled spots in MD and PA because my son was getting emailed evry other day that "his application had been accepted" to these events, but he never applied.

Likewise, he had applied to the MA one, but not the others, but got several e-mails saying you have been accepted, and then we got the e-mail stating that his position had been filled. We hope to get in to the one in MA next year.
