Calgary Future Games Trials: Hitting Data Dive
April 21, 2024
On Wednesday, April 17th the Prep Baseball Alberta staff hosted it's second Future Games Trials of the year with the Calgary Future Games Trials at Duvernay Fieldhouse in Okotoks, Alberta. This event featured 35 players from the Calgary area within the 2025 - 2028 classes and allowed our staff an opportunity to get an up-close look at the prospects, as well as collect updates metrics and data for player profiles.
Future Games Trials allow our staff to see players ahead of their outdoor season and helps us identify players to select for our three Future Games teams (Future Games, Senior Future Games and Jr. Future Games).
Earlier this week we began our post-event coverage within our Statistical Analysis and Pitching Data Dive articles. Today we'll conclude our post-event leaderboards within this article as we take a look at the top hitting and swing metrics, captured by TrackMan and Blast Motion, from the Future Games Trials in Calgary.
