PARENT TESTIMONIAL

"The Showcase League is an excellent Fall League for High School players that are looking to play at the next level. Over the last few years I have been consistently impressed by the level of competition, and coaching on the field. Although it’s called the “Showcase League” the players truly play as a team and take great pride in winning for their team color. The teams are comprised of players with a good mix of D1-D3 committed and not yet committed talent from New England.  We are looking forward to our final season with the Showcase League this fall. My son’s Geoff and Avery made great progress during the last few fall seasons. I would highly recommend the Showcase League if your goal is to play at the collegiate level." -- Matthew Mosseau

PARENT TESTIMONIAL

"The Showcase League is a well organized program that provides high school baseball players in New England with the opportunity to play on quality collegiate playing surfaces against top high school competition in front of college coaches and recruiters.  Equally important, it provides high school players the rare opportunity to play with other aspiring baseball players who have been opponents, and even rivals, and develop friendships that transcend high school athletics.  This level of competition and camaraderie provide a unique opportunity for New England high school baseball players."   -- Kevin L. Lavigne
