On November 4-5, 2023, over 215 players gathered in Hampton, Virginia for our 4th Annual Mid-Atlantic State Games. Over the course of two days players completed a pro-style workout and had the opportunity to play in two games. There was tons of talent on hand from four states and the District of Columbia.

This week we will take a look back at some of the performances from each player that was in attendance at the largest event in PBR Mid-Atlantic history.
