PBR of North Carolina hosted the Elite South ID on Friday September 16th at the Tuckaseegee Field of Dreams in Charlotte, NC. The event gave players an opportunity to update their stats and video prior to the Elite South Showcase Tournament over the weekend. The ID featured players from the 2023-2026 Classes.

After batting practice players went through a defensive evaluation. The night concluded with pitchers throwing a controlled bullpen with Trackman collecting advanced analytics.
