The Western NY Prospects Baseball Organization has multiple teams from 9-18U including its Showcase team which sends players to the collegiate level each year. Our teams play a very competitive schedule including the top tournaments in the country. We participate in some the best local leagues including CEBA Collegiate, Boys of Summer, and Premier Travel Baseball league.

We offer the highest quality of instruction along with top notch coaches on staff. Our mission is to produce a family friendly environment in which all players can learn, develop, and compete at a high level each time they take the field.

Prospects FAQ's

When are tryouts held?

Tryouts are held in late July and early August every year. If you are unable to make a tryout date, please contact us to schedule an alternate time.

We expect to field teams from 9U division through Showcase. At some age groups we will field multiple teams based on the amount of players interested in participating.

While specific schedule details will vary from team to team, here is a general sense of the time commitment for our baseball teams:

Spring – Teams will have Indoor Winter Workouts from November through March. We transition to outdoor practices in early April for the rest of the season.

Summer – For non-high school players the season begins in late April and runs into July. For high level players, the season starts after high school ball is complete in late June and runs through early August. Teams can expect to have multiple weeknights of games and/or practices each week, along with some weekend doubleheaders.

Fall – For players that want to participate in our Fall Ball program, teams will begin practices and games after Labor Day, and continue through mid October (weather permitting). Games are again primarily in the format of weekend doubleheaders.

We understand that many players have busy schedules not limited to just baseball, and we do not mandate 100% attendance at practices/games to maintain your roster spot. As a general philosophy, we offer two practices a week during Spring/Fall seasons in the hope that every player can make at least one session to ensure they are getting enough baseball development.

The Prospects participate in multiple tournaments around the WNY area each summer. For Showcase level players, we also travel to several out of town tournaments including Diamond Nation, Buckeye Elite, and others with an eye towards college recruiting activities.

New players will receive a Prospects jersey top, hat, and socks. We do not provide pants – players should supply their own. Players will need to have both white and grey pants.
