Victoria Eagles Scout Day: Blast Motion Board
October 16, 2022
On Wednesday, October 12th, PBR B.C. returned to the Island Training Centre, this time to host the Victoria Eagles for an organizational Scout Day. The Scout Day gave our staff an in-depth look at players across the Eagles program including some intriguing unsigned seniors looking to play at the next level, as well as some young up-and-comers who will be on the scene for years to come.
We had several standout performers from the Victoria Eagles program and continue to break it all down below with a look at the Blast Motion metrics.
