2025 NY Preseason ID: West (Session 2)



Preseason ID - Session Options *

Preseason ID - Additional Position (Optional)

WHAT IS A PRESEASON ID EVENT?
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 New York State Games. ALL invitations for the 2025 New York State Games will come from the participants of our 2025 Preseason schedule. 

Our Prep Baseball 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.

For updates on this event and more check us out on social media.
