On Sunday, March 8th, the Prep Baseball Wisconsin staff is hosting the South Milwaukee Preseason ID at Hitters Baseball Academy in Caledonia, WI. This is an open event for all high school classes (2026-2029), and gives our staff an ample look at the area's top players.

EVENT HISTORY

We've been hosting this event for the past 7 years, and it's consistently provided us a look at prominent players who've later gone on to receive invitations to select events, like the Prep Baseball Future Games. Among the players in attendance at this event in 2025, there were 27 commitments following the event. 

We're looking forward to checking in on the next crop of talent from this event to earn next-level attention in the coming weeks, months, and years.

EVENT CHECK-IN PROCESS

Because of the high number of prospects set to attend Sunday's event, it is imperative that you 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 smart phone camera that will lead them to a Google Form. On that Form, players will enter their name (matching the spelling on their PBR 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.

ITINERARY

Please bring snacks and drinks as events can run long, especially depending on your position.

+ Check-in Times:

• All Position Players: 8:45 AM
• Pitcher Only's: 11:00 AM
