T-Bones announce open tryouts

KANSAS CITY, Kan. – The Kansas City T-Bones will hold open tryouts for the 2014 season on Saturday morning, April 26, at 11:00 at CommunityAmerica Ballpark.

“This is a great chance for some of the metro area talent to be seen in a professional setting, while at the same time we’ll have players traveling from around the nation to participate,” said T-Bones vice-president and general manager Chris Browne. “We’ve had some success at finding future T-Bones players in this format. I’m looking forward to it."

Members of the T-Bones coaching staff, former professional players, and college coaches will conduct this tryout. Pre-registration is $85 per player. On-site registration, which begins at 9:30 a.m., is $100 per player.

The coaching staff will evaluate players for a possible roster spot with the T-Bones, or to recommend for other professional teams. Former T-Bones who joined the club after an open tryout include Beau Stoker, Kyle Dahman and Drew Graham.
