FAQs

• Do you limit the number of players you accept for camps?
  • Each organization sets its own policies for operation of its camps. Some MAY use our system of limiting participants by position which helps set up ideal numbers for simulated games. Our (the TOP96 method) sets a maximum number of players for an event at about 150. And, it limits the number of players at each position to balance teams and instruction time for each player. The player limit by position (range is based on the total number of players in an event) is:
    • - Pitchers - 6 to 7 per team
    • - Catchers - 16 to 24
    • - Outfielders - 24 to 32
    • - Middle Infielders - 32 to 40
    • - First Basemen - 8 to 16
    • - Third Basemen - 8 to 16
• Is housing provided for the players?
  • READY, SET, REGISTER does not provide registration for any housing for events.
  • Click on the "Hotel/Travel" link under the Events menu for recommended hotels at which the host organization has negotiated a rate.
• Is lunch provided?
  • Each organization will detail options for lunch.
    • You may be able to purchase food and drinks or snacks on-site. Our system will indicate if the host has a concession stand available or not.
• What clothes should I wear?
  • You should bring/wear your regular baseball pants.
  • You should bring sneakers as well as your baseball cleats/spikes.  Many locations have facilities or fields where you can’t wear your spikes.  Also in case of bad weather we may move portions of the clinic indoors.
• How do I get to the field?
  • Directions and maps to all fields are provided via links to Mapquest at the bottom of each event's information page.
• What kind of bat should I use?
  • Each event organizer will specify which (metal or wood bats) are acceptable.  However since most colleges and high schools still use metal bats 99% most players will use metal.
