Cepeda Caribbean Classic staff is excited to kickoff our search for elite talent ranging from ages 9u-15u to participate in our 6th Annual Orlando Cepeda Caribbean Classic. Tryouts for the summer classic will begin in November. Our staff will be hosting tryouts in several states throughout the US.
If you can’t make it to a tryout that’s not a problem! We have another way for your player to be evaluated without attending a tryout. November 1st will be the date when players can submit their evaluation video without attending a tryout to secure their roster spot. Spots are filling up fast as most of our Cepeda / USA teams already have ROSTER spots secured.
The Annual Orlando Caribbean Classic has established itself as one of the premier International tournament in the US. With players representing from 10 different states and other countries, this is the event you don’t want to miss. This tournament is much more than baseball. Traveling to another country and learning their culture. Witness how the game is played and the passion they have for it has opened past players eyes and provided a different outlook on life and sports. Visit our gallery for videos, pictures and testimonials on how this tournament has touched the families that have attended in many ways outside of baseball.
We are excited to mention that Cepeda Sports is adding a new event in the DR. Next summer we are producing an International college showcase. We are opening the doors for elite HS / College players that want to showcase their talent in front USA D1, D2 Colleges and International scouts in the Dominican Republic, “The Hot Bed” of baseball.

The late President Bush Vs. Hall of Famer Orlando Cepeda
President Bush never lost the baseball bug. In the summer of 1984 at 60 he played in an old-timers' game with former major league stars when he was Vice President to President Reagan. Bush hit a single into left-center field off of Milt Pappas, but his more impressive feat came on defense.
Hall of Famer Orlando Cepeda hit a hard ground ball down the first-base line. Bush dove to his left, knocked the ball down, picked it up and threw out Cepeda. The old mitt had made the play, and not so many years later as President, George H.W. Bush could open his desk drawer and relive the moment.
