THE Reloaded Baseball executive team, in a press release yesterday, announced the invite and pre-approved selection of more Reloaded players to participate in the Perfect Game (PG) 2023 Series Texas Challenge at Big League Dreams, League City, Texas December 27-31.

Ethan Burnside, Aamir Rahming, Waiden Bain, Rhamon Bethel, Kyrie Campbell, D’mari Ferguson, Jayce Devaux, Tyler Smith, Alexander McPhee, Reid Ingraham, Sion Duncombe, Jeremiah Filterman, Josiah Filterman, Mandella Curry, Eugene Pratt, Leslie Sands, Archie Michelmore, Caleb Davis, Tre’nardo Hart, Demetrios Cleare, Tyler Culmer, Isaac Richardson, Rhamon Bethel and Geralle ‘GJ’ Gabriel have all been preselected and approved to take part, which is a great opportunity for exposure for each of them, said the release.

“We are proud to see how the programme is fullfilling its mandate to develop our kids to international standards.

“We have only been in existence in a little over a year and we have achieved milestones in regards to the development of the kids in the programme. We wish all of them the best and they have the full support of the Reloaded team as they go off to participate at this event.

“They are not only representing Reloaded and themselves but also bringing awareness so that other Bahamian kids can be recognised from a much younger age and also prove to the international baseball world that we also do have the same skillsets and talent levels of our international counterparts.

According to the press release, Reloaded has sparked a lot of international interests since the travel ball trip to the Perfect Game tournament this past summer.

“And we intend to tap into all of these resources in the pursuit of development to international standards for our Reloaded kids. We will not be deterred in this pursuit as good is never enough as we are developing tomorrow’s leaders.

“In preparation for the Texas Challenge we will be training the kids selected in the various baseball skillsets that they will be tested on leading up to their departure.”
