I manage a team and, assuming that the level of talent is about equal,\nI look for kids who are hard workers, good listeners, hustlers and give a great effort. Hope you do well!

Get involved in a summer league and/or camps. Go to all open gyms the coach holds!!! They want to see dedication! Run. Lift weights.

First of all u should talk to one of the players in the team and ask them how the tryouts were and how physically fit do u really need to be. Then u should really build up your stamina and start working out. Also, work on the things that one of the players said u need to tryout.

Can you hit? Go to the batting cages and work out. Can you catch? Play catch with your friends. Keep doing these things until your ready and you'll have a good season.

Do you or your coach know anyone in pro ball? If you do, a referral from a current player is the fastest and easiest way to get a tryout. It's very difficult to make a team just through a tryout and very difficult to get a tryout.\nYou can try looking here:\nhttp://www.baseball-links.com/links/Scouting-Recruiting-Tryouts/

You have to know a lot.  I want to be a scout too, but it's not easy.\n\nNot only stats and histories, you must know the basics as well.  Sit in the back of the plate, you have to know what kind of the ball movement is wicky, what kind of swing speed is fast and powerful.  You have to know what kind of players have good hand-eye coordination or easy to get hurt.\n\nThe best way is to work with scouts.  Most scouts are old, that means they have a lot of experiences.  Listen to them and they can give you things you can't learn from TV or books.  If you want to develop your own skills, prepare your notebook and start to write done and organize everything you know.  Then, watch more baseball games on TV, see how pitchers deal with different batters.  That's more helpful than sit on the stands.

Get some friends together. Go out in the back yard and start a game.  You can be one today.

Ask the teams in your area if they hold try outs. If they do, go to one of them and if you are any good, they'll sig you up.That is the way it is in my part of the world.

Fundementals, fundementals, fundementals. Work on the basics of throwing, catching and swinging the bat consistently. The more you can ingrain those basics in your team, the better they will do and the more success they will have as they move on to future levels of the game.\n\nThere are several coaching links through eteamz.com, including several message boards where you can communicate with other coaches and get ideas. But whatever you do, keep it fun. The odds are you don't have any future major leaguers on your roster, but you do have a good size group of young players who can develop a lifelong love of the game if you teach them while letting them have fun.

You have to be invited, thus the name "Select"\n\nThere are some larger leagues that hold tryout for teams that may need a player or two.\n\nIf you know a coach that has a Select team, I would contact him or her.\n\nYou might also try Baseball USA, they might know of someone looking for a player.

Most major league teams will hold an open tryout or two in the Spring..  check out their websites..  but also be a realist..  and while it does occasionally happen, of the two or three hundred that often show up to an open tryout, maybe two will get a closer look and offered a chance at single A ball.. \n\nNothing is impossible, but know the odds going that route are stacked against you..  you are better off trying out for a college team and showcasing your talents there..  even Juco players get noticed by scouts.. Alex Fernandez was pitching in at a Miami Junioir college team when he was noticed..\n\nBottom line, is you will certainly not make it if you don't at least try..  So give it your best shot, stay determined..  and keep trying..  It does occasionally happen..

here is an oldie but a goodie, get an old tire hang from a tree. paint a small circle on it. hit the circle till you remove the paint.  repaint the circle and do it again. work on blocking the ball, have someone thow balls in the dirt to your left and right just outside the plate. not too far away from you keep your head down watch the ball hit your body or glove.  when you work on throwing down to second do not take three steps to the base. stand up and throw. one step. start slowly catch the ball. stand and throw. then keep going faster.  watch the pros on how they frame the ball. frame it where you catch it.  DO NOT MOVE YOUR GLOVE DURING THE FRAMING!!!!  I am also an umpire and we hate that

go to community college with a baseball team, try out. if ur any good they'll take you. then work ur way up though the ranks to the pros. two years there, then a four year college or maybe a minor team would give you a shot. talk to a local minor league team and try to get a try out, or find out when the pros are having a combine. u need to get exposure. my brother plays community college ball and the KC Royals have talked to him about minor league. give it a shot.

You ever thought about videotaping your workout drills with yourself at various positions that you know for sure you can actually play. The key word is "actually", How's your bat? is it fast enough through the strike the zone? Do you frequently visit batting cages? these are ways you can show a Major League ball club that you are worth taking a chance on. Others would be to try out for Minor League teams and see where you stand. If any one can tell you, it would be a Minor League coach wether you have enough to make the show, or tell you what you really need to improve on!
