- WHEN: Thursday, May 31st (5:00 PM to 6:30 PM) and Friday, June 1st (6:00 PM to 7:30 PM)
- WHERE: West Salem High School
- WHO: Any ballplayers who will attend WSHS next year (current 8th graders through current juniors)
- COST: TBD. We will let you know at tryouts.
Reminders:
- Please be READY to roll at start time.
- Please come dressed in baseball attire (pants, cleats, etc.) with your equipment.
- Football players, please go to football practice first and meet up with us right after.
- Being a member of a spring team (Frosh, JV, Varsity) does not guarantee a summer roster spot. During tryouts coaches will be assessing players on multiple aspects including coachability, work ethic, and skill level. Please be aware baseball is a "cut sport" and there are limited number of roster spots available.
- Whether you make a team this summer or not has no bearing on making a team in the spring. There are limited spots and we understand that players grow and improve with time, hard work, and practice.
- We encourage multi-sport athletes and always do our best to work out scheduling issues out with football, basketball, etc.
Current 8th graders:
- Please bring your current youth ball schedule so we know your availability for the summer.
- Your current team/league (JBO, DS, Little League, etc.) has no bearing on making a team. Please do not assume that it does.
- Remember (if you make a team) that your first priority is with your youth ball team. You are expected to go to your youth team's events if there is a schedule conflict.
Legion Hopefuls:
- AAA Legion tryouts are June 3rd and June 4th at 5:00 PM at Western Oregon University.
- We encourage you to try out for both teams in the off-chance you don't make the AAA squad.
- If you do make the Division 1 team you are definitely able to tryout for the Dirtbags.
- Please communicate with the coaches if you have any questions about Legion/WSHS tryouts.
