PrepStar Elite Baseball, a 13U travel baseball team based out of Cobb County, is seeking players interested in long-term development from 13U through 17U designed to maximize each player’s opportunity to play college baseball.
Team advisor and Coordinator Mike Shaheen, varsity head baseball coach at Whitefield Academy who formerly coached at Wesleyan High School, will lead the staff and along with Head Coach Desmond Atwell who has served as the assistant baseball coach at Riverwood High School since 2001.
In his 8 years at Wesleyan, Shaheen coached 17 Division 1 college baseball players and several D2/D3 players. His coaching style is focused on holistic training and player development. During his coaching career, he has developed strong relationships with many college coaches, which have benefited his players as they advanced beyond high school and into their college careers.
Coach Atwell has coached high school, middle school and travel baseball teams in the Atlanta area since 2001. He also currently serves as a scout for Perfect Game where he identifies talent to be recommended to college and professional baseball coaches. From 2007 to 2010, Coach Atwell also held the position of associate scout for the Cincinnati Reds in the Atlanta metro area.
Coach Shaheen and Coach Atwell will create a customized development plan for each player designed to improve their baseball skills. The coaches will also meet with the players and parents throughout the season to measure each player’s progress towards their development plan.
Weekly practices will begin in September 2018 and will continue throughout the course of the season until June 2019. Practices will include weekly outdoor team and positional practices as well as individual instruction with professional coaches at Pinnacle Prospects, the premier indoor facility in Cobb County.
Pinnacle’s professional staff in conjunction with our coaches will run the indoor practices at Pinnacle Prospects. Each session will have hitting, pitching, fielding, catching and strength and conditioning stations and will ensure that the team never misses out on practice time due to poor weather.
Professional recruiting services will be provided throughout high school by PrepStar, which will create a personalized recruiting profile for each player on the team.
Tryouts will be held on July 21st at Whitefield Academy in Mableton, GA. There is no cost associated with the tryout.
If interested, please send your son’s information to pstarbaseball@gmail.com and we will contact you with further details about the tryouts.
