USSSA Baseball is bringing back its All-Star Weekend this August. The event is open to all players from Illinois, Indiana, and Wisconsin that participate in a USSSA tournament in 2010. The event is invite only, with players being selected from USSSA Tournaments throughout all three states.
Event Schedule (Tentative):
Saturday, August 7th
ABR Scout Day and Skills Competitions. All players in the USSSA Tri-State All-Star Weekend will go through a five-tool skills evaluation. Each player will receive a “Player Profile Page” on www.AmateurBaseballReport.com in which they can view their results. After the ABR Scout Day players will compete in various skills competitions. Individual awards will be given out to the top performers.
Sunday, August 8th
The All-Stars will be split into teams and compete in a few simulated games. If there are enough players we will split each age group into teams from their respective states.
