Atlanta, GA (July 8th, 2026) — LakePoint Sports, the Premier Travel and Youth Sports Destination in the country, is set to host the Rawlings PrimeTime Players Weekend on July 10–12, 2026, the sixth of eight sold-out Champions Weekends in the 2026 series. For the fourth consecutive year, Rawlings returns as title partner to headline a weekend packed with elite competition, fan-first activations, and experiences built around delivering Excellence in the Guest Experience for athletes, coaches, and families arriving from across the country.

The weekend will run across three of LakePoint’s premium venues.

The Marketplace at Baseball Village will be fully activated throughout the weekend, with kiosk partners including 100% Sunglasses, Jax Athletics, Wilson Bats, Baseballism, Cartersville Bartow, Canton Tourism, and Evo Shield. Shot Collar will be on campus showcasing their bat weights, Scoops will be on-site as a one-stop shop for sweets, and Celo Nutrition will also be activating in the Marketplace.
