World Showcase
The World Showcase was the first National level showcase run by Perfect Game back in 1997. It’s by far the top off-season scouting event of its kind. Players from every state have participated along with players from Canada, Latin America, Japan and even Europe. It really is a “World” event. Take a look at past top performers and you will be amazed at the results of how many tremendous players have made the journey to Fort Myers Florida each holiday season.
