Future Games Trials/Preseason Uncommitted: Statistical Analysis


Cam Black-Araujo
Assistant Director, PBR Canada

On Friday, March 24th, PBR Alberta staff headed to St. Albert as we combined the Future Games Trials and Preseason Uncommitted events at Absolute Human Performance's new facility. Our staff got a look at 40 players from the province including a trio of players who will be with us in early May at the Best of the West Tournament in Kamloops.

Players who attended for the Future Games Trials were 2025 and 2026 grads looking to showcase themselves for PBR Canada's team attending the PBR Future Games in Emerson, Georgia in late July. Players who attended for the Preseason Uncommitted were 2023 and 2024 grads looking to play at the next level, as well as showcase themselves for potential roster spots on our Best of the West team, as well as the West Coast Games in Las Vegas in early August.

Our TrackMan was utilized throughout the event for batting practice metrics, as well as bullpens to gather advanced data on players. Beyond that, players ran through defensive evaluations with positional velocities and pop-times recorded.

Below, we begin to break down all the data from the pair of events that ran simultaneously with the top positional velocities, pop-times and 30-yard times.
