Sarrah, being from a small town, another piece of advise would be to not limit yourself to school ball. My daughter also attends a very small school that most havent even heard of, but she also plays usssa,nsa,asa,usgf, and usfa softball tournaments. This has helped her dramatically. Not just getting her noticed, but also her performance. She is in 7th grade, and has already been contacted by numerous JC’s, and 4 D1′s. Being at a small school, you have to put yourself out there. Things such as a company like this one, traval ball, anything you can find. Good luck.

Jenn – It sounds like you need the help of a recruiting expert and it seems like crunch time. Here’s a sample scouting report: http://recruit-match.ncsasports.org/fasttrack/profile/profile.jsp?clientID=11181 Make sure all the information is verified by a 3rd party that college coaches trust. If you need help, call 866-579-6272.

Taylor – That letter is sent to hundreds of softball players in your recruiting class. You should be getting letters like that from a lot more colleges. You should also call that coach on the phone number in the letter and ask him the kinds of questions that will tell you if he’s serious about you. If you need more letters or suggestions on questions to ask, have your parents call 866-579-6272 to schedule an appointment with a national scout.

I received a letter from a college coach. He talked about his school and how good it is. Then he continued to tell me that he is glad that I am interested in his softball program. He told me to send him my schedule so that he could come watch me play, a copy of my video so he could view it, and to fill out the softball programs questionnaire and send it back to him. What does this mean??

In reading some past emails, it’s been said that the player should contact the position coach? Is that correct? Also, in sending out video to a coach, I’ve been told by other parents that we need to include a “Bio”. What exactly should be on that Bio? Thank you very much.

Michelle, It sounds to me like your high school coach is making promises in order to keep your son playing for him another year. You should contact a NCSA recruiter to find out objectively what the benefit would be to your son playing another year. Once you give them his stats they can tell you his chances at a “full ride” scholarship to a DI school If he isn’t being actively recruited he may want to walk on to a junior college to gain experience instead.

Dominique – You don’t have to SHOUT College coaches at the Division 1 level are not allowed to call you. They can send camp brochures and questionnaires. You can call them after they’ve sent those to you.
