Calling all free agents!
If your complete NCBA team is not interested in participating in the 2018 showcase, but you still want to sharpen your skills before the conference season, you can travel to Plant City to compete as a "Free Agent" on the Rawlings Free Agent Team. The NCBA free agent team is made up of players from across the country, alumni of the league, and an NCBA staff member that serves as the coach. The team is created each week of the event on a participation basis. (This means that unless there are enough interested players to fill a competitive roster during a given week, the team will not be formed.) This also means that interested players should fill out the form below ASAP to be sure that a team is formed during your week of Spring Break.
Quote from Alex Kane, 2017 NCBA Free Agent Manager:
“ The Rawlings Free Agent Team is a terrific opportunity for players from all across the country to come together and form one team. Whether you come as an individual or with a few of your current teammates and friends, the Rawlings Free Agent Team provides the opportunity to play competitive baseball at a high level in a terrific springtime environment! As coach of the 2017 Free Agent Team, I’m sure I can speak for everyone when I say we had an awesome time! We met as individuals, but through the course of the week, we left as friends. Overall I had a great time and I look forward to coaching the team again in 2018”
