July 2025 tryouts

2025-2026 Tryout Registration

TRYOUT REGISTRATION LINK IS ACTIVE! At the top of this page, you will see a link to register as well as the dates & times for our fall 2025-summer 2026 Missouri Bulls tryouts.

You must have an account set up with us first. Returning players, login to your account. For a new athlete, please create an account. It is important that you complete EVERY BOX on the registration form. Thank you in advance, and we look forward to seeing you!

2025-2026 Tryouts- PLEASE READ

Our goal is to be transparent about the game plan as our Missouri Bulls Organization continues to grow.  Please read this over before registering your athlete for our tryouts. Our organization is currently made up of 26 teams, ages 7u-18u. Some of our established teams have a majority of players returning for the 2025-2026 season. Those teams are seeking the position players needed to complete their team for 2026. We intend to build additional teams this upcoming season as well, working toward an A, AA, AAA team in each age group. This will enable the appropriate level of play for each developing Bulls athlete and team. If you have questions about this before tryouts, please contact Todd Pennington, Missouri Bulls Director, at 618-306-2265. Note below that there is a non-refundable deposit due at the time of commitment to a Bulls team.

18u experience for 2026

From Todd-

My goal for our 18u Bulls is to create a unique experience for our 2026 SENIORS.  This is the schedule format we have executed for the past 4 summers for our 18u Bulls, and it has been a good balance.

-Fall baseball (optional)

-Winter team training (Jan./Feb.)

-5 summer tournaments (half season- mid June-mid July)

My hope is to prepare you for your senior season and college prep, while also freeing up some time to spend with family and friends, senior trips and graduation celebrations. This has been a win-win for our senior families over the past couple of years, but each year we will continue to discuss a good balance for our 18u players and families.
