Prep Baseball Canada is set to send it's ninth Future Games down to LakePoint with a new wrinkle this year as we include a 17U "Senior Future Games" for the first time in the history of the event. With eight years of Future Games now behind us, we've been able to put well over 100 Canadian players in front of 300+ college coaches at the annual event that has rounded into the best of it's kind within the industry.

2015 was the inaugural season for Canada at the Future Games and the team lacked some depth as Prep Baseball was just beginning to grow it's roots within the country but the team still churned out a pair of draft picks and a current prospect who's catapulted up prospect boards over the past calendar year.

With boatloads of talent dawning the Prep Baseball Canada uniform at the Future Games, our staff will now go through year-by-year and break down the draft-picks from each team, as well as where they are now.
