Top Tier North Tryouts
Join the Top Tier North Family
Top Tier has evolved from its inception in 2004 to one of the elite amateur baseball organizations in the country. The strength of our program lies in our commitment to developing players and building confidence through hard work and dedication.
Top Tier North is heading into its 11th season and has placed over 100 players at colleges across the country in the past five years alone. We design our program to maximize the exposure of our players by playing a competitive regional schedule combined with strategic elite national events. Our high school schedule provides players the platform to showcase their abilities in front of the top schools and scouts across the country.
Top Tier has always maintained the singular goal of player development. Winning is what we always strive for, but it is a byproduct of constant, daily improvement.
