2016 Team Ontario Future Game Spotlight: Workout Day Recap
August 9, 2016
By Chris Kemlo and George Halim
Ontario Scouting Director and PBR Scout
From August 4th through August 6th, PBR Ontario took a select team of players in the Classes of 2018 and 2019 to represent Ontario at the PBR Future Games in Westfield Indiana at Grand Park.
Players received exposure unlike any other event for underclassmen. Last year, 100+ colleges from all over the country were in attendance, including coaches from every Division I power conference in the country. Only players who have a legitimate shot at being a Division I recruit and who have an interest in the possibility of making a verbal commitment during their sophomore or junior seasons have been considered.

2016 Team Ontario Future Game Spotlight: Workout Day Recap
Day one of the PBR Future Games took place today with a position player workout at Grand Park in Westfield, Indiana. Team Ontario position players ran 60’s, participated in defensive evaluations, and took batting practice on the field in front of 150 plus college coaches.
Position players were separated into four groups with corner infielder, middle infielder, outfielders, and catchers all working out together. We take a look at some of the stats and results from Ontario.
