⚾️ IMG Spring Classic Recap | Bradenton, FL ⚾️

The event brought 32 teams from the 13U and 14U divisions to the area, with all games taking place on the beautiful campus of IMG Academy. Across six gorgeous turf fields, teams competed in 54 total games over the weekend in one of the premier baseball settings in the country.

🏆 14U Gold Bracket Champions: SBA United Scout

SBA United Scout knocked off one of the top 14U teams in Florida, USA Prime Tampa Nunez, to capture the championship.

🏆 14U Silver Bracket Champions: Kangaroo Court Royal

Kangaroo Court Royal defeated Tampa Xtreme in the finals to close out a strong weekend.

The weekend featured great competition, strong facilities, and mostly beautiful Bradenton weather — the perfect way to wrap up a spring season that saw Prospect Wire host a record 340 teams from February through May.

🗣️ “Closing out the spring at IMG Academy was a great moment for us. Coming back to work with IMG after many years away meant a lot, and the facility, the fields, and the Bradenton/Sarasota area all delivered exactly what we hoped for. This region has always been important to Prospect Wire, and we’re excited about what this partnership can continue to become.” — Brian Werner, President, Prospect Wire

🗣️ “IMG Academy is one of those venues that immediately elevates the event experience. Six turf fields, a beautiful campus, and a great baseball environment gave our teams a strong weekend from start to finish. It was a fitting way to close out the spring.” — Nick Susie, National Director, Prospect Wire

Beyond the field, Bradenton continues to be a tremendous destination for teams and families, offering beaches, restaurants, attractions, and a true Florida weekend experience.

With spring officially wrapped, Prospect Wire now turns its attention to summer — beginning this upcoming weekend in Polk County with the Memorial Weekend Classic, which will feature 80+ teams**.

Thank you to IMG Academy, the Bradenton area, and every team that helped make the IMG Spring Classic a great final chapter to our 2026 spring season.
