Cam Black-Araujo
Assistant Director, PBR Canada

On Monday, September 18th, the PBR Ontario staff travelled into the city to host our fifth Scout Day of the year with the North Toronto Scout Day at Sentinel Park in Toronto, Ontario. This event featured 14 players from the North Toronto organization 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 partners TrackMan and Swift Performance.

Today we'll start our deep dive into the data collected at this event within this Statistical Analysis story as we take a look at the top TrackMan and Swift data, as well as positional metrics.
