WHAT ARE SCOUT TEAMS?

Canes New England Scout Teams are invitation-only, select groups of the best players from across the Northeast—not just from Canes programs. These are elite athletes competing at the highest levels, leveraging the Canes name and uniform for maximum college exposure.

Scout Teams compete where it matters: Perfect Game, PBR, Dynamic Baseball, and premier national tournaments where college coaches and pro scouts are actively recruiting.

This isn’t a training program. This is a platform. A stage. An opportunity to be seen by every college program that matters.

WHO CAN APPLY?

Open to Elite Players Across the Northeast
You don’t have to play for Canes to earn a spot on a Scout Team. We’re looking for the best players from Massachusetts, New Hampshire, Vermont, Rhode Island, Maine, Connecticut, New York, and beyond.
If you’re elite, committed, and ready to compete at the highest level—you belong here.
