They are legit.  There will be a lot of scouts.  If he’s interested in being drafted, it’s worth going.  Being that young he’s just going to be in the radar. We went when my son was in the fall of junior year. The scouts were all talking and occasionally looking up as the 50-70 kids did bp. Until one kid came up and it was all business. Video cameras and quiet. I think he hit out 7 of 9.  He was drafted first round that summer.  We ended up going to a few. Good experience and gets them used to the stress.

How did your friend get invited? A local scout got a player in that my kid knows.

We are going in June for the 3 day try-out.  My son got an invite last year, but Covid messed it up.  I'll try to remember to respond after and report on his experience with the event.

He received an email from someone at USA Baseball saying that they had received a recommendation to invite his son to the regional event.
