Scorpions Dodgers Scout Team

Scorpions/Dodgers

We are proud to announce the Scorpions and Dodgers Scout Team will be entering a partnership beginning this fall.  This partnership will include all age groups from incoming 9th graders to rising seniors.  Each program will continue to operate independently within their own organizations.  This partnership will provide one Scorpions/Dodgers Scout Team per grad year.  Players selected to these teams are provided with the best opportunities to showcase their skill set at the country’s most prestigious events. 

The Scorpions have a 30-year history of success that includes over 2200 college commitments, +350 players who have signed professional contracts, 24 first round picks, and 40 players who have played in the MLB.   The Dodgers Scout Team organization has burst onto the travel ball scene with a focus on player development. This program is being run and overseen by Scott Hennessey, the Manager for the AA Tulsa Drillers for the Los Angeles Dodgers Organization. Scott has over 30 years of Professional Baseball experience in Scouting and Coaching. They have a proven coaching staff with the likes of Tom Lucas and Mike Boswell who both bring a wealth of experience and knowledge.

This partnership will strengthen both organizations.  Our scout teams will have deeper talent pools and provide players with more experienced and knowledgeable coaches.  Players from both organizations will have access to the country’s most scouted events in the Southeast.
