Has anyone heard anything from Teamone on their nominations for showcases this summer?

No one has received an invitation?

panther...Go to their website and ask the question of Jeff.

My son has received an invitation to the summer event at Georgia Tech.

We know some kids who weren't invited last year until about two-three weeks before. You can always call or email them. They're very nice.
Good luck!

Our son received an invitation to the one in Tempe this summer last week. Any thoughts on which is better, Team One or Perfect Game?

Oh,
I'd say if at all possible DO BOTH! They are both 1st class organizations and your son will see results because of it. My son attended Team One in Tempe and got interest from schools who never would have contacted him w/out his attending. The only PG my son has been able to make was Jupiter, which I regret. (Not Jupiter, but not being able to attend another event)
If you can only do one, maybe others will be able to add their perspective.
Good luck!

Their invitations don't all come out at once. They send them as they process them. And they do check references too.

Attending a TEAMONE Showcase would be the smartest thing a kid could do for exposure.

My son received an invitation in November and he's signed up to attend Tempe event.

As an employee of Team One I wanted to put up our correct web address:

Team One Baseball

It is a rivals site with outstanding information and articles.

There is a nomination form on the left-hand side for interested parties. All nimination are verified.

Teamone does a very good job putting players in front of lots of coaches. There is a wide range of talent levels at the showcases, as there is at others.

I noticed that the Team One South (Atlanta) is 7/16-18 and the Perfect Game 18U World Championships are held 7/12-18 in Marietta. If a player is on a fairly high profile travel team that is playing in Marietta, does he pass up the Team One? I don't think that we have much choice because the coach has already told him that he is expected to be with them the entire week. Just didn't make alot of sense to me to have both events during the same time period.

I would go with your team and contact TEAMONE to see if you can attend another one of their showcases that would not conflict with your team. The Perfect Game Wood Bat Championship is a great event.

First, I believe the Perfect Game event is the premier tournament of the summer - this year from July 12-18. My ballclub, the Central Florida Renegades, will be participating.

Team One at Georgia Tech is always the same weekend - this year it is July 17-19. Last year, the PG event was July 5th week - not the July 12th week.

PG has pool play from Monday to Friday. Teams that do not make the playoffs play one game on Saturday. The playoffs start Saturday as well.

Team One will start sometime that Saturday afternoon with the bulk of the showcase Sunday and Monday. On Sunday there are only four teams left in PG anyway. Players from my team will be able to do both events if they choose.

If I can be of any assistance drop me a email at BobT1BB@aol.com and I will try to help you resolve this issue.

I had Ryan call the Coach again and let him know that he's committed to them and won't be going leaving. He also found out that after the PG event they leave from there to go somewhere else to play for a few days, before returning home. Looking at the dates, it doesn't look like Team One will work out at all...unless he can get in at Arizona or Houston. Even then, I'm not sure if it would be worth the $1,000 the whole thing would cost.
