During the week we will be providing unique scouting and team notes from the ABCA coaches convention held in Anaheim, Calif. from January 5-8, as well as detailed reports on the top prospects that participated at Perfect Game's World Showcase held in Fort Myers, Fla. January 7-8. In addition, three minor league top prospect reports will be available during the free trial as Perfect Game continues its first venture covering minor league baseball.

Those that take advantage of this offer are also encouraged to look at the current (and frequently updated) rankings of the 2012, 2013 and 2014 high school classes, scouting blogs from all of our events, including those from the National Showcase and WWBA World Championship, as well as player scouting reports from each and every showcase event we produce.

Summer collegiate top prospect reports (including the Cape, Northwoods and Coastal Plain leagues as well as Team USA), all of our 2011 draft coverage, including the 2012 and 2013 state-by-state follow lists (links default to Alabama), the top 300 prospects for the 2012 draft as well as our detailed and continuously expanding coverage of the college game, including access to the premium forums, will also be available.

Coaches, scouts and fans alike can get a taste for some of the powerful recruiting tools Perfect Game has to offer. Once you have signed up for the free trial, click on the 'Coaches' drop-down found in the red sub-navigation bar at the top of every page here at Perfect Game to discover some of these unique features.

And don't forget about Perfect Game's advanced player search function located in the upper right-hand corner of every page, giving subscribers access to thousands of player profiles and scouting reports.

During the free trial week, new subscribers that sign up for a year subscription to an Insider or Premium level account, in addition to the College Baseball Ticket, will receive an additional month of service for free. That means that all new subscribers that sign up during this time will not only receive PG Crosschecker's 2012 preseason coverage of the draft, college and high school seasons, but they will also receive the same in 2013.

We strongly encourage you to take advantage of this offer, as starting on Monday, January 16 PG Crosschecker will begin its preseason coverage of the draft with daily scouting reports and a comprehensive breakdown of the top 500 prospects eligible for the 2012 draft.

Starting on January 30 we will begin to cover the college game, identifying the best players and teams in the nation while providing detailed breakdowns of each of the major conferences at the Division I level and unique weekly positional power rankings.

In February our already broad scope of baseball will expand with similar coverage of the upcoming high school season.
