Tryout Information
Thank you for your interest in trying out for the Prospects Travel Baseball Team for the spring season of 2025! We are excited about the upcoming season and look forward to the opportunity to develop and compete with young athletes.
The Prospects Organization is the competitive arm of Pinellas County Youth Baseball (PCYB). Over the years, we have grown and thrived by focusing on player development, fostering teamwork, and creating opportunities for players to advance in the sport.
We will be providing updates on our spring tryouts in the upcoming weeks. In the meantime, here are a few important details about our program:
Age Groups: We currently field two 9U teams, along with 10U, 11U, 12U, 13U, and 14U teams.
Season Schedule: The spring season typically runs from February through August 31. Managers will determine the specific dates for tryouts based on team needs and will post them on our Facebook pages and Prospects website as soon as they are confirmed. Players who are on a fall team will have first priority to remain on that team for the spring, with manager approval. This is part of our organizational strategy, especially for planning major summer events such as:
THE RIPKEN EXPERIENCE
SPACE COAST EXPERIENCE
COOPERSTOWN EXPERIENCE
OTHER WEEK-LONG TOURNAMENTS
These events require significant funding so our teams will have up to a year to secure funding and plan for these opportunities.
In addition to our growing teams, we are thrilled to announce that one of our complexes will soon be closing for redevelopment into a state-of-the-art facility, featuring 7–8 new fields. This expansion will allow us to accommodate even more teams and continue providing top-notch facilities for our players.
Please keep an eye on our social media pages and website for updates on tryout dates and additional information about the 2025 spring season. We look forward to seeing you on the field and wish you the best of luck in the tryout process!
If you have any questions or would like more information, feel free to reach out to us directly.
Good luck and we hope to see you at tryouts soon!
Coach Michael Gayden, Prospects Director
During tryouts, we will evaluate hitting, fielding, throwing, base running, and overall game awareness. Please arrive at least 20 minutes before the scheduled start time with all required baseball equipment.
The tryout process will be fair and objective, with every player receiving equal consideration. Our coaching staff and evaluators will assess players based on their skills, effort, potential, and overall fit for the team.
Post-tryouts, we will review evaluations and make final roster selections for the fall season. Feedback will be provided to every participant to aid in their development.
Stay informed about updates or changes via our regular posts.
