(Carlsbad, Calif., – April 7, 2021) – Today, Blast Motion, the leader in swing analysis, player development and improvement, announced a partnership with The Playrs Showcase Series. The Playrs Showcase is an emerging series of premier / elite instructional events for baseball and softball youth around the country.
The Blast solution allows athletes to become the best version of themselves by intelligently combining the bio-mechanics of movement with sensor data, video capture technology, and cloud-based software services.

This is the same Blast information that is used by travel team coaches, college recruiters, and MLB scouts.
“The Playrs Showcase Series is partnering with leaders in the baseball and softball technology analysis space, like Blast Motion, to deliver a best-in-class, in-event and post event experience” said Jim Duquette, former New York Mets and Baltimore Orioles General Manager and now CEO of the Playrs Showcase Series. “Participants will receive actionable insights and instruction from their event performance, captured by Blast Motion, so they can elevate their game.”
As part of the event participation fee, all attendees will receive a Blast Motion swing analyzer, a post event assessment report, and 30-day access to Blast Premium Service. Additionally, players will receive an overall improvement plan with special offers related to skill development, nutrition, wellness, content for recruiting and media exposure throughout the year.
