Charlotte & Wilmington Open Preseason ID Events

The North Carolina Preseason ID's kick off this weeked. Saturday 1/18 the Charlotte Preseason ID will be held at the On Deck Academy. Sunday 1/19 The Wilmington Preseason ID will be held at UNCW's Marvin Johnson Training Center. Some of the most talented players in the 2025-2030 classes from the state of North Carolina will be attendance looking to show there off season progress and gains they have achieved in the offseason 

The Preseason ID series is unique in several ways. It serves as an identifier heading into the spring season, giving our scouts as well as college recruiters, a list of prospects to follow as they plan their spring coverage. We also tend to see prospects’ best performances in the Preseason, as most athletes are fresh and coming off of strict and targeted off-season training programs that have resulted in big gains, primed for updating their Prep Baseball profile.All of which lends the perfect opportunity to secure invitations to some of the summer's biggest invite-only events such as the Carolina Border Battle, Top Prospect Games, and Prep Baseball Future Games.

Our staff strategically hosts Preseason ID events throughout the state in search of players who have taken advantage of the offseason, identifying new prospects to add to our follow lists or players our staff is already familiar with who are on the rise.All player information including tech metrics, stats, videos, scouting reports and more will be hosted to the Prep Baseball website, bolstering the player profile, which is subscribed to by more than 1,000 colleges across the country.
