2026 Tryout Registration Form

Ohio Storm Baseball - 14U

2026 Travel Team Tryouts

Welcome to the 2026 Ohio Storm Baseball 14u tryouts! We eagerly anticipate meeting you and having you participate in the tryouts for the team. Below, you’ll find information about the format we’ll use to evaluate all attendees.

The following format will involve several drills to assess players’ skills.

- Hitting Drill: This drill uses a batting cage or pitching machine to evaluate swing mechanics, contact, and power. It consists of two rounds, each with ten fastballs, five curves, and five sliders.

- Fielding Drill: In this drill, we’ll set up infield and outfield areas to assess fielding technique, accuracy, and arm strength. Players will throw to each other from different distances to evaluate accuracy, arm strength, and footwork.

- Base Running Drill: This drill involves running bases to assess speed, agility, and instincts. It will also include live stealing drills from 1st to 2nd base.

- Situational Drills: We’ll practice scenarios with runners on base to assess game awareness and decision-making.

Players must pre-register to participate.
