The 2024 Five Tool Hawai'i Sandlot Classic enters its fifth year in existence. In the past four years, this event has seen players get recruited by colleges at the event as well as through Five Tool social media channels to various Division 1 (Power 5 included), Division II, Division II, NAIA, and junior college schools. Players will showcase their skills on Day 1 at the Five Tool Pro-Style Combine. On Day 2-4, players will be split into teams with one game per day and compete for a championship on Day 4 (the top two teams will square off). There will be an Upperclass Division and Underclass Division.
***NEW TO 2024***
At the conclusion of the Day 1 Showcase portion, approximately 6 PM, there will be an Uncommitted Senior College Scouting Scrimmage. This will be for uncommitted 2025 position players to participate in a simulated game with college coaches on field and in the dugout giving instruction and coaching. More details to come...
