Tryouts for the Longshots Senior Division (high school ages) will be held in August 2011 for the 2011 Longshots Baseball Fall Program and the 2012 season. All tryouts will be held at Whitlock Park at 4001 Fairview Ave, Downers Grove, IL, 60515.
Players do not need to attend all 4 sessions, and their chances of making the teams and the program will not be impacted by which session(s) they attend. There are 4 sessions at each age primarily to facilitate vacation schedules and other conflicts. It is typically recommended that a player attend two sessions. Each session will have the same format.
We recommend players arrive 15-20 minutes before each session to register and stretch. The registration form is at the bottom of the tryout page on our website. Players can print a form, fill it out, and bring it to tryouts, or there will be forms on hand at each session. We will begin each session by having the players run a 60 yard dash, so make sure to leave enough time to get stretched out, and be sure to be properly hydrated.
All Senior Division players in our program play with their high school graduating class team, regardless of their age eligibility. Players should tryout for the team that corresponds with their graduating class.
There is no cost to tryout.
Any weather-related changes or cancellations will be posted to this page.
