Canadian Futures Showcase
The Canadian Futures Showcase, the biggest amateur baseball tournament in Canada and hosted by the Toronto Blue Jays Baseball Academy, is an event that enables Canada’s rising amateur talent with draft and college eligibility to further their athletic and academic careers, by exposing them to MLB scouts and college recruiters.
The showcase splits players evenly between six teams to compete against each other in a tournament-style format, starting with a scout day and concluding with a prospects game and home run derby on the final day. Players are selected through a series of open tryouts and in-person evaluations that run nationally over the spring and summer.
Since 2013, over 100 former Canadian Futures Showcase participants have been drafted by Major League Baseball organizations, with more than 500 receiving college scholarships.
