Hi all,
I have been asked to help with a JUCO softball team re-build. The college is Jamestown CC in Western NY. New coach is a long time successful HS coach who I know well. If you have or know players still looking for a 2 year college for the fall and who would want to be part of a new program, please let me know. This is an excellent opportunity and especially for IR.
thanks,
Bob

I have 438 views on this post so it seems to me there is some interest. I am passionate about softball and I truly believe I can help with this opportunity for those players who are not ready for a 4 year college but could definitely take advantage of a solid, ground floor opportunity to help make a JUCO program great. Plus, there is definitley a pitching angle here as well. So, this is serious business. Therefore I am respectfully asking those of you who are viewing this as something to explore further to please contact me. We have until spring enrollment to make an informed decision but I do need to let the HC know what the roster possibilities are. I also need to know if this is a valid means of recruiting in a much wider area and reaching more skilled players. Thank you! Bob R.

Personally, I think this is probably a pretty limited area for recruiting for a JUCO. I think your best bet would be to start talking to all the local orgs in your area. Contact their heads, and they will put out the call to their coaches and you'll probably get lots of interest. This is a very small, national, audience.

I think this is one way of generating interest but I wouldn’t limit my actions to this message board alone. Reach out to organizations. Other JC coaches. High school coaches. Pitching coaches. Hitting coaches.

This exactly. Do you have scholarship dollars? That's a great draw.
