Results from 2023 Alberta New Year Open
February 21, 2023
We would like to thank all who participated in PBR Alberta's 2023 New Year Open. The event was our third of the week in Alberta and served as our first open showcase in the province this year. Open events give our staff a chance to see players from various organization's and classes while serving as identifiers for our PBR Canada Selects teams that take part in national PBR events such as the Future and Jr. Future Games (Atlanta), West Coast Games (Las Vegas), as well as our Best of the West team.
The 2023 New Year Open gave our staff a look at 66 players from the 2023 - 2028 classes with many strong showings and performances which we'll begin highlighting below.
Below, we begin our post-event coverage with a look at the top defensive metrics and 60-times from the event.
