14u PG Select Baseball Festival Event Page
FORT MYERS, Fla. – The most elite athletes from the high school class of 2021 from across the nation, as well as one participant representing Puerto Rico, Venezuela and the Dominican Republic, will take center stage at JetBlue Park in Fort Myers, Florida. Team East will battle Team West in the second annual 14u Perfect Game Select Baseball Festival held during Labor Day weekend.
The players qualified for the Festival by showcasing their abilities in Perfect Game tournament, showcase and PG Series events. The final selections took place upon the completion of the inaugural 14u National Showcase, which was held the weekend of August 5-6.
The 40 participants range from 17 different states along with Puerto Rico, Venezuela and the Dominican Republic. The players will be housed at the Hyatt Regency Coconut Point Resort and Spa overlooking the Gulf of Mexico for the weekend, as they will get to take part in numerous activities on and off the field.
