“Long Island Baseball
Showcase”
”Thousands of young boys dream of becoming baseball
players — and for some that dream can become a reality. However, some people
believe Long Island is not the place to find the next Babe Ruth. Anthony
Passalacqua of Long Island Baseball Incorporated has made it his mission to
help up-and-coming talent on the island get noticed by talent scouts.
Passalacqua not only coaches kids, he has set up showcases to give players
opportunities that athletes in other parts of the country might take for
granted.” - Rich Barrabi, Fois 1 News
Once again this past August Long Island Baseball
held its exclusive elite showcase. Our showcases have a twofold purpose. First,
we are driven to disprove the stereotypical notion that Long Island ballplayers
are not equal to those players in the warmer regions of the country. Second, it
is to provide to our aspiring talented players here on Long Island an exclusive
opportunity to showcase their skills before dozens of scouts and college
recruiters from all around the country.
Today, parents want to give their young players
every opportunity to excel and live out their dreams. As a result, baseball
showcases appear more like an assembly line then a golden opportunity. The costs
for showcases are in the hundreds of dollars while being extremely overcrowded.
The uniqueness of “Long Island Baseball Showcase” is that there is no fee! We never
charge while giving Long Island baseball players maximum exposure.
