LATHROP, CALIF. - The NorCal Rising Stars Game tour was held on 6/6/23 in Northern California at Islanders Field. The event hosted players in the 2027 and 2028, some who no doubt attended with the intent to show they’re deserving to be considered to represent Team California at the Prep Baseball Report Jr. Future Games in LakePoint, GA.
This July, PBR California will be taking a team to the Jr. Future Games for the first time. This unique event is run in conjunction with, and at the same facility as, the Future Games which last year hosted over 360 college coaches. Adding to the spectacle is the uniqueness of the event being open to uncommitted players only.
Players at the NorCal Rising Stars Game were put through a showcase workout and then played a modified game, with players putting forth their best efforts to standout and hopefully gain an invitation to the Junior Future Games. However, for events for young players, the opportunity to compete in these atmospheres also has great value as they begin to gain comfortability in the environment of a competitive showcase.
