This Saturday, February 14th, the Prep Baseball Illinois team is hosting the McHenry Rising Stars ID at Pro Player Academy in McHenry, IL. This is an open event for the high school graduating classes of 2030-31, and gives our staff an ample look at the area's upcoming players.

EVENT CHECK-IN PROCESS

Because of the high number of prospects set to attend Saturday's event, you must read our adjusted showcase itinerary below, which will allow our staff to swiftly and efficiently educate and evaluate the players set to attend.

Additionally, in an effort to continue and develop contactless check-in strategies, upon arrival, players will scan a QR Code with their smartphone camera that will lead them to a Google Form. On that Form, players will enter their name (matching the spelling on their PB profile) and hit submit. Upon submission, players will be prompted to click a link that will direct them to their jersey color and number, located next to their registered name.
