Hello, I recently found a PG spring scouting league and I was wondering if anybody has done them before and what do they think of them? Any info is appreciated

Where do you go to HS?
It is a pretty good warm-up for the HS season. Most of the games are played in Menominee Falls. Pretty good coaches, tough competition. Some HS's put their whole varsity team in it. Other teams were made up of players from several HS's.
A bit expensive, but you won't get a better pre-season. By the time you are done you will be in mid season form for the start of the HS season.

I go to dominican. What about you? Thanks for the advice but im still not sure if I'm going to do it. I definately want to though. How is the exposure during the games?

Sorry for the delay in responding, I simply missed your response.
Actually, I have been out of school for about 35 years and both of my sons have graduated from High School.
Frankly, from what I have been told by parents of kids involved, the exposure seems to be limited to the evaluation the coaches write-up and if you are invited to one of the Iowa trips.
Some parents were not too thrilled with the level of competition, freshman playing against Varsity players. Good expereince for the freshment, not great for the varisty players.
On the other hand it is a great warm-up for the High School season.

Sorry I missed this post earlier. My son has been out of high school for 4 years now. He played in both Perfect Game Spring and Fall Scout leagues. We are from Iowa, and I'm not sure how much different the Wisconsin leagues are - but we felt it was well worth the money to play in both of them.
As BigWI mentions the spring league gets you into baseball shape. There is no better way to start your baseball season than having a whole lot more games under your belt already. And even better, if you've been playing tough competition.
Cost wise, we always felt we got good value for the money.

APARENT,
My oldest played in the Fall 2001 & 2002 and Spring 2002 PG Scout leagues, had your son graduated by then or was he in the league at that time?

My oldest was a 2001 grad. His last season with PG was spring of 2001.
My how times flies, I have to say it seems like it was just last year.
