In all, 84 of the 153 players are members of the CPBL.

The showcase splits players evenly between six teams to compete against each other in a tournament-style format, starting with a scout day and concluding with a prospects game and home run derby on the final day. Players are selected through a series of open tryouts and in-person evaluations that run nationally over the spring and summer. 

Since 2013, 117 former Canadian Futures Showcase participants have been drafted by Major League Baseball organizations, with more than 700 receiving college scholarships.
