This Saturday, February 15th the Prep Baseball Illinois team is hosting the McHenry Rising Stars ID at Pro Player Academy in McHenry, IL. This is an open event for high school graduating classes of 2029-30, and gives our staff an ample look at the area's top players.

EVENT CHECK-IN PROCESS

Because of the high number of prospects set to attend Saturday’s event, it is imperative that you read our adjusted showcase itinerary below, which will allow our staff to swiftly and efficiently educate and evaluate the players set to attend.

Additionally, in an effort to continue and develop contactless check-in strategies, upon arrival, players will scan a QR Code with their smart phone camera that will lead them to a Google Form. On that Form, players will enter their name (matching the spelling on their PB profile) and hit submit. Upon submission, players will be prompted to click a link that will direct them to their jersey color and number, located next to their registered name.

ITINERARY

Due to the space in the facility, parents will not be allowed inside. And as a reminder, we will be running the 30-yard dash at this event, due to space limitations.

POSITION GROUPS

  • Check-in: 8:45 AM
