July 13, 2009
The 2009 California Collegiate League workout and all-star game was held this year at Major League Baseball’s Urban Youth Academy in Compton, California. The day started with a workout that allowed for selected players from the Academy Barons, SLO Rattlers, SLO Blues, Santa Maria Valley Packers, Santa Barbara Foresters, Southern California Black Sox and Conejo Oaks to showcase their individual talents in front of MLB scouts, University coaches and fans.

The American All-Stars were composed of players from the Santa Barbara Foresters, SLO Blues and Conejo Oaks. The National All-Stars were players from the SLO Rattlers, Santa Maria Packers, So Cal Black Sox and Academy Barons.
