In 2011 ProspectSelect and Hardball teamed up to do put on an event where players could participate in a showcase that really catered to both College Coaches and Professional Scouts. One huge difference from other showcases, was the addition of a tournament (VBC) held right after that allows players to re group with their travel team and allow these coaches/scouts to continue to follow them the rest of the week.
With torrential downpours in 201, the Hardball/Prospect Select staff worked around the clock to get all of the games in and resulted in a 16u and 18u Championship at the end of the tournament. This year, the staff has been at work to make it an even better event for everyone involved. The Vero Beach classic is back! and this time around, it’s bigger & better!
The Vero Beach Classic has extended the tournament from 3 full days to 5 full days allowing more flexibility, Live results will be posted using point streak technology to update teams and fans with all the scores and pool standings, The Prospect Select Eastern Topps showcase will run the days before tournament play begins and will once again one of the best amatuer showcases in the country. Last but not least, in the first year (2011) there was 60 different travel teams that participated in the Innaugural Vero Beach Classic with over 70 colleges and pro scouts in attendance. This year there are already over 80 teams registered which include the very best travel teams in the state of FL, Puerto Rico and Curacao!!!!
