FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE 

 

PERFECT GAME ANNOUNCES 2025 SELECT FESTS 

 

Sanford, Florida (Tuesday, February 4, 2025) - Perfect Game, the world’s largest youth baseball and softball platform and scouting service, today announced the dates and locations for the 2025 Select Festivals, an annual series of marquee events showcasing the top young baseball talent from across the country. These highly anticipated events will once again serve as a platform for rising baseball stars to demonstrate their skills. 

 

Now in its historic 10th season, the 14U Select Festival will take place August 28-31 at its longtime home of JetBlue Park in Ft. Myers, Fla. The 14U Select Festival kicked off the annual slate of events for Perfect Game in 2016 at the Spring Training home of the Boston Red Sox, where it has remained since then. Since its inception, four 14U Select Fest alumni have made their MLB debuts: Dylan Crews, Victor Mederos, Jordan Lawlar and Carlos Rodriguez.  

 

Returning for the second straight year to the University of Virginia on Davenport Field at Disharoon Park, the seventh annual 13U Select Festival will be held August 21-24. In last year’s MLB Draft, four first-round selections were 13U Select Festival alumni: Konnor Griffin (ninth, Pittsburgh), Theo Gillen (18th, Tampa Bay), Cam Caminiti (24th, Atlanta) and Slade Caldwell (29th, Arizona). 

 

The 12U (August 8-10) and 11U (August 7-9) Select Festivals will overlap at the East Cobb Complex in Marietta, Ga. The 12U event is now in its sixth season while the 11U event is celebrating its fifth year.  

 

All Select Festival games will be streamed live at PerfectGame.TV and on the free PGTV app, allowing fans worldwide to follow the action of future generations of baseball stars. As always, the events will feature high-level competition, memorable experiences for the players and the chance to perform in front of scouts, coaches and an international audience. 

 

“The Select Fests are the ultimate celebration of youth baseball excellence, and we’re excited to once again bring these events to these great venues,” said Jheremy Brown, Director of 13U and 14U Select Festivals. “From the storied East Cobb Complex to the major league amenities of JetBlue Park, these events offer young athletes the opportunity to shine on a grand stage.” 

 

Perfect Game will release additional details about the 2025 Select Fests in the coming months. For updates, including player rosters, coaches, schedules and streaming information, visit PerfectGame.org and PG’s social media channels.

All-Star Game Continues To Thrive We’re only a couple of years into having the PG All-Star Game around, an underclass event attached to the All-American weekend, this year played in Petco two days before the Classic. The talent that is a part of it continues to grow to significant levels, and this year was a mix of young guys and some newer names that left lasting impressions. The two hardest throwing guys in the game were the only 2028s in attendance, Striker Pence and Dexter McCleon Jr who both were upper-90s as guys who just started their sophomore year, while the loudest moment of the day came when Kinon Bastian obliterated a pitch into the top deck of the famous Western Supply building in left field, something that we’ll remember for a long time. Extra Swings In The All-American Derby One of the best events every All-American weekend is getting to see these guys with...

BURLINGTON, IA - Perfect Game Softball Winter One Day Tournament, February 15, 2026. Twelve teams, split between the 16u and 18u divisions, participated in this event.  With two pool games, and then a move into single elimination bracket play,  some players used this tournament as  their last warm-up before kicking off their high school seasons, while others were tuning up for the busy Spring and Summer travel season. In the 16u division, it was the Iowa Aries 16u Ce Fire Red taking the championship, with Southeast Iowa Allstars 18u Gold Miller earning the crown in the 18u division. Below are write-ups from observations made during the day, as due to a software glitch, there were no stats available to complete a Top Performers list. 16U Division  Earning the MV-Pitcher Award, as selected by her coaches, was Aurora Widlund (2029 Altoona, IA) of tournament champion Iowa...

OHIO VALLEY REGION (IL, IN, KY, MI, OH) The Ohio Valley Region has a healthy amount of top-level talent, as it features five Perfect Game All-Americans in shortstop Ethan Bass, third baseman TJ McQuillan, two-way stand out Matt Ponatoski and right-handed pitchers Shawn Sullivan and Grayson Willoughby.  The 2027 class looks very strong as well, especially in Illinois. A couple of things are missing from the Ohio Valley All-Region team, though.  The first is the two best outfielders in the region, as 2027 Illinois outfielder Sebastian Wilson is attending IMG Academy in Florida and fellow 2027 outfielder Noah Goettke from Ohio is attending P27 Academy in South Carolina.  Also missing are any players from Michigan, which enjoyed a dominant run of top prospects in recent years largely behind the Lake Orchard St. Mary’s HS program.  2027 catcher Broder Katke (Brother...

College Players of the Week: Feb. 17

Perfect Game/Player of the Week: Tyce Armstrong, IF, Baylor Opening Day always has a special feel with the sights, sounds and smells bringing back memories of days gone by. But no one that made their way to Magnolia Field at Baylor Ballpark could have imagined what they would witness in the Baylor Bears first game against New Mexico State. Enter 6-4/228, redshirt senior 1B Tyce Armstrong with his power stroke and flare for the dramatic. Transferring in after a successful career at UT Arlington, the Magnolia, TX native would etch his name in the record books with an incredible day at the plate. Armstrong would hit three grand slams in the game, becoming just the second player in NCAA history to accomplish this feat in a single game. His three home runs tied a program record, and his 12 RBIs set a new standard for the Bears. Beyond that, Armstrong matched the 50-year-old record previously...

MIDWEST REGION (KS, MO, OK, AR, NE, IA, WI, MN, SD, ND) The Midwest Region featured only two 2025 Perfect Game All-Americans in catcher Carson May and shortstop Keaton Neal, both from the Kansas City area, but if the team were to be re-selected today there might be three or four more players honored.  The theme of the Midwest Region this year has been the number of players who have improved significantly during the late summer and especially the fall, which bodes well for this spring. In addition, the 2027 class in the Midwest Region appears to be solid as well and will have many All-American worthy players. St. Thomas Aquinas HS of Kansas is the top ranked school from the Midwest Region, checking in at 38th overall in the Perfect Game Pre-Season High School Rankings.  Edmond Memorial HS of Oklahoma gives the region two teams as they start 47th nationally.

NORTHEAST REGION (NY, CT, MA, RI, VT, NH, ME)  The strength of the Northeast Region in 2026 is the number of high ceiling power arms, led by potential upper-90’s throwers in left-hander Brody Bumila and right-hander Bryce Hill.  The depth of quality pitching is such that two of the top pitchers in the 2028 class, right handers Gavin Chakar (Norwalk HS, Conn.) and Dylan Cunningham (Austin Prep, Mass.) didn’t have a spot on the team.  The weakness of the Region is the increasing number of players who leave to play baseball and continue their school work at Academy programs in the South.  Numerous players that fit under that umbrella would have a place on the All-Northeast Region if they weren’t in Florida or the Carolinas. C – Bradley McCafferty (Sr., Austin Prep, Mass.) McCafferty was named the Gatorade Player of the Year for Massachusetts as a...
