AA (American) Ex-high school players, and some college players. Some experience in the League and pitching depth not as deep.
A (Central) For newly formed teams and in most cases, some high school experience or comparable baseball experience.
Procedure

Participants will receive a numbered jersey, so that team managers can identify you. The draft begins with participants taking defense in the infield and outfield positions. Participants should select one and only one position to try out at (presumably their strongest position).  Pitchers who play additional positions will be allowed to try out at pitcher and their best additional position.

 

Participants will go to their selected position where they will be given three plays. Infielders will receive ground balls where they will throw to the designated base and/or turn double plays. Outfielders will receive three fly balls and throw in to a designated target.

 

When finished with defensive drill,  participants will enter the hitting tunnels and continue their tryout. During this time, pitchers and catchers will move off to the pitching tunnels to demonstrate their skills and rotate into hitting as necessary. After the drills are completed, team managers from up to 46 teams will draft according to the schedule selecting the players they want.
