Good luck!

I've had a little previous experience with them. I went to one of their tryouts. All went well and I was named to top prospect team on their website and supposedly entered in their database, so I was invited to a lot of their tournaments (arizona fall classic, preseason invitational, etc...). Never attended any of these because money is an issue and there real expensive. I've heard very good things about them though so thats all I can say. hope some of this helps.

jvos, have you considered a Perfect Game showcase? They are the #1 showcase organization for getting exposure.

selectfest is right in your backyard in NJ, heavily scouted and much cheaper than perfect game or baseball factory

The issue with Selectfest is that it is select. What happens if this poster does not get an invite to attend.

Personally I would stick with the PG showcases. i think their rating are taken more seriously. BAseball factory from what Ive seen invites a lot of the kids who try out to some sort of tourney. they have a roll over spot in the arizona fall classics (senior classic is hard for teams to get into) they put a lot of players on their rosters, they have Baseball factory and team one are all the same company.
I think its too much money.

I am no expert on showcases, but it seems to me that Baseball Factory is getting an undeserved bad rap here. Go to their website:

Go into the testimonials section and see the dozens of parents and players who say the same great things about the Baseball Factory that so many people also say about Perfect Game and other showcase organizations.

I suspect that those who have actually utilized Baseball Factory's services would say glowing things if they, too, were writing on these forums.

Baseball Factory provides excellent services (although priced at a variety of levels) to those parents and players seeking this type of college recruiting and evaluation support.

Bear in mind, I have not needed such services, nor have sought such services, yet having seen the growth since inception, BF is more than a reputable business.

cheers

Well put Bear.
