The Canes National ID - West was a two day event used to identify and highlight players within the Canes West program where participants were scouted not only by the Canes West staff as they begin building their local, regional and national rosters for the upcoming Fall and 2023 Summer, but will also be assessed by the Prep Baseball Report staff as we will be starting to build our rosters for the 2023 State Games (Respective States - All High School Classes), 2023 Future Games (Emerson, Georgia - 2025-2026 Classes) and the 2023 West Coast Games (Las Vegas, Nevada - 2024).
Players participated in a Pro-Style Workout on August 20th that featured our state-of-the-art PBR Tech to help analyze and assess the the position player's strengths as well as development areas. Day 2 of the event on August 21st consisted of Live Game Play where pitchers were assessed by our TrackMan system in a "Scout Ball" formatted game.
The Canes Program has established themselves as one of the premier club organizations in the country and the players in attendance of the Canes National ID - West (2027-2029) proved that they will be in good hands for years to come with the talent coming up thought their "farm system".
