Greg Williams
Pennsylvania Director of Scouting

All roads will lead to DuBois, PA for the 2020 PA Summer Prospect Games. This event will take place July 14th and 15th with the same format previously used for the PA State Games in June.

* We have invested in professional live-streaming capabilities for ALL events this summer. That means the Summer Prospect Games workouts and games will be available for viewing during and after the event. This is an extremely important development for the amateur players of Pennsylvania this summer and beyond. PBR PA has you covered. 

* NO METAL SPIKES ALLOWED ON FIELDS

* ALL Players check in at the Showers Field Parking lot for shirt and hat prior to reporting to their assigned fields

* Due to CDC regulations, each player will be restricted to three spectators that accompany him to watch the event.
