General Info

Coast to Coast Baseball was formed with the express purpose of providing young amateurs with a taste of what it is like to play the game at its highest levels. The program is open to players between the ages 11 and 18, the majority of whom are selected at open tryouts held in 30-35 states annually. The organization also accepts athletes that have been recommended directly by a college coach or professional scout. Once chosen, players may elect to represent the USA in competition in Puerto Rico, or work with top college coaches and pro scouts at one of our Florida or Arizona Camp & Showcase events held at a MLB spring-training complex.1 ) High-level coaching/instruction - Because all our staff members have either played or coached at the collegiate or professional level players can be assured they will receive solid instruction and direction as part of the program.2 ) Outstanding competition - Whether it is Arizona, Florida or Puerto Rico, our players play with and against some of the best amateur athletes in the world.3 ) Unparalleled education - In addition to the on-field instruction players receive, our staff also conducts informational seminars on each of the trips. These "classroom" sessions are open to players and parents alike. Topics include college recruiting, off-season conditioning and strength-training, and nutrition as well as baseball specific topics like proper hitting or throwing technique, baserunning, etc.4 ) Exposure - Because our staff members have all played the game at its highest levels, and because many are still current college coaches and pro scouts, Coast to Coast Baseball provides an excellent network for players hoping to play at the next level. Scores of our alumni have gone on to play at every level of college baseball.......some even professionally. Many of those opportunities have come as a result of having attended a Coast to Coast event.Formed in the fall of 1999, Coast to Coast Amateur Athletics, Inc was formally incorporated in May, 2000. Over the past ten years, Coast to Coast players have been featured in over 500 different newspapers across the USA. The organization has also been fortunate to receive both television ( NBC ) and radio ( ESPN ) coverage. In February 2002, executives of the High School Sports Network ( HSSN ) accompanied 4 teams of college-bound athletes to Puerto Rico to report on the Coast to Coast program. The company was subsequently featured on the HSSN program, "High School Sportshow America, " with host, Adam Stanco.Since its inception, Coast to Coast has seen to it that nearly 2000 players from 46 different states as well as Canada, Mexico, Germany and the Dominican Republic have represented their country in competition all across the globe. Many of the program's alumni have now gone on to play baseball at both the collegiate and professional levels ( see ALUMNI section of the website ).With a combination of excellent coaching, outstanding competition, and unparalleled education, Coast to Coast Baseball prepares the nation's top amateur players for success at the collegiate and professional level.
