Future Games (2026/2027) and Senior Future Games (2025).
This event featured roughly 20 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.
