Event Information

The PG Midwest Invitational will bring top-level high school talent to the forefront. This marks the first time a tournament will run alongside the Kansas Jayhawk Community College Conference (KJCCC) Jayhawk Sophomore Showcase, giving scouts and recruiters already in Wichita the opportunity to watch younger talent in the Midwest. Teams already committed to this invite-only event represent five states from across the Midwest.

“The Showcase is one of the top Midwest events for all MLB scouts, college coaches/recruiters and MLB agents. Over the years, MLB evaluators, college coaches/recruiters and agents have attended the Jayhawk Sophomore Showcase looking for talent and several top MLB and college players started their careers playing in junior college. The Jayhawk Conference is one of the best in the nation.” - Terry Wetzel, 37-year MLB front office veteran and current senior advisor at Perfect Game.

*Division winners will receive $1,500 in Perfect Game Cash to apply towards a future PG event!

Welcome to Perfect Game

Perfect Game is an organization that defined an industry and remains baseball’s most respected scouting report service.

Perfect Game provides showcases, tournaments, online video, national rankings, player profiles, scouting reports and college and professional opportunities to the nation’s top prospects and their families.

Where talent goes, professional scouts and top college recruiters are sure to follow, and Perfect Game can offer the best in baseball increased exposure, insight and professionalism to propel them through their baseball careers.

Why the Braves’ Roy Clark says that top colleges and scouts know PG is the best!

Roy Clark: "Jerry (Ford) and his staff do an outstanding job. We feel that they put on, and it’s not even close, the best showcases and tournaments of anybody. They’re so well organized. Jerry has tremendous knowledge of scouting. They have a lot of former professional and college baseball people in their organization.

"Since they put on the best showcases and tournaments, naturally they’re going to get the best players. We are pretty much a high-school oriented organization, so where the best players go, we will be there. We have sometimes up to 10 or 11 scouts covering Perfect Game events. It gives athletes the chance to compete at the highest level of their age group, in a team or showcase format, in some of the best facilities in front of both colleges and scouts.

"They’re (Perfect Game) the best, and the top colleges and the highest level scouts know it."

Results are what count...

Perfect Game set a new record for the tenth consecutive year following the 2011 MLB draft. Of the 1,530 players selected, 1,323 had attended a Perfect Game event, and 294 of the first 331 picks were Perfect Game alumni. Many of these alumni had participated in multiple Perfect Game tournaments, showcases and/or leagues.

In the past ten years, 9,073 Perfect Game participants have been chosen in the MLB First-Year Player Draft. However, these figures do not account for the many Latin American free agents who participate in Perfect Game showcases and tournaments and then sign with Major League clubs. One can only imagine how many Perfect Game alumni will ultimately reach their dream of playing Major League Baseball down the road.

Perfect Game does not take any credit for the numerous outstanding players selected in the draft or the many more who go on to play college baseball. Perfect Game simply provides talented players a means to be identified and evaluated closely while competing with and against the best worldwide. Perfect Game identifies players, provides an opinion, and then lets Major League scouts and college coaches form their own.

MLB scouts and college coaches make the most important decisions, and luckily, they follow what we do very closely - not only in person, but online as well.
