Alabama Fall Games: Event Preview
August 23, 2024
The Alabama Fall Games will be held this Sunday, August 25th at the University of Montevallo in Montevallo, AL. Some talented prospects in the 2025-2029 classes from the state of Alabama will be in attendance looking to show off the progress and gains that they've made throughout the summer as they begin to head into the off-season.
For most in the baseball world, the yearly baseball schedule is as hectic as it gets. From scouts to coaches to players, everyone is traveling the country looking for the best experiences possible and many are trying to navigate the landscape to put themselves in the best possible situation to #BeSeen. At Prep Baseball our scouts are spending their time just as you are, chasing the best baseball they can find all while making it easier for the player to put his best foot forward in the recruiting process. Our Fall Tour of open showcases takes the approach of making it easier for the player to find a local event, open to all grad classes and skill levels, and providing the opportunity to get in front of our scouts during the hectic schedule of summer baseball, keeping their Prep Baseball Profile as current as possible.

Additional Athletic Testing | ![]() |
+ Expand to learn more
Players' body composition will be officially measured using state-of-the-art, medical-grade technology that will provide precise insights into height, weight, skeletal muscle mass, BMI and more. Players will step on scales using bioelectrical impedance analysis (BIA), a method for measuring body composition, including muscle mass, body fat, and total body water. Our scales will then produce several metrics giving insight into the prospect’s body composition. Height will be measured using a digital stadiometer to get precise height measurements. Grip Strength Hitters' grip strength will be tested using a digital hydraulic dynamometer. Grip strength is an essential component to bat strength and controlling the barrel. Hitters will be put through a max strength test on both hands, shedding light on hand strength and potential power and bat control down the road. |
