Assistant Director, Prep Baseball Canada

On Friday, March 29th the Prep Baseball Ontario staff hosted the annual and first of two indoor Spring Future Games Trials at the The Athlete Matrix in Mississauga, Ontario. Future Games Trials serve as an opportunity for players who are age-eligible for our two premiere team's heading to LakePoint in late July for the annual Future Games event... Future Games (2026/2027) and Senior Future Games (2025). Canada will also featued a Jr. Future Games team at the event with Ontario's Trials coming on Monday at the Athlete Matrix.

This event featured roughly 110 positional players or two-way prospects from the across the province in the 2025 - 2027 classes and allowed our staff an opportunity to get an in-depth look at the players, as well as collect updated metrics via our tech partner TrackMan.
