Junior Future Games Trials: Statistical Analysis


Brett Thorney
State Scouting Director

This past weekend, PBR Arizona had a chance to hold its annual Junior Future Games Trials, which is an open event to help identify some of the upcoming future prospects in the middle school ranks in Arizona. This year the event featured players from the 2025 & 2026 grad classes. This has been a great event over the years not only start getting a feel for some of the younger players in the state but help them get their profiles started. We also take some time at the JFG trials to discuss what it is scouts will be looking for in the future and way they can showcase their skills the best. 

Another big purpose for this event is to help our staff identify potential players to represent TEAM ARIZONA at the 2021 PBR JUNIOR FUTURE GAMES. The Junior Future Games is an annual event held at LakePoint Sports in Emerson, GA and runs in conjunction with our PBR Future Games, which is the biggest event in the country for uncommitted prospects. There have been several players in the past that have committed to DI programs shortly after schools have seen them at that national event. In years past, there have been over 250+ scouts in attendance at our facility during event and some of the schools pop over to the junior games to get a head start in recruiting the younger classes.

At the Junior Future Games Trials, players participated in a pro-style workout, followed by pitcher bullpens. Standouts from the event will receive invites to represent Team Arizona. We will be taking about 12-14 players to compete against some of the top players from around the country. 

Today, we will be highlighting some of the top statistical performers from the open event at Brophy College Prep:
