A number of the tournaments are live streaming the games using the athletes go live platform. For any tournaments that don't Dd's team will be livestreaming.If your DD is an uncommitted 21 or 22 you need to get a YouTube channel set up and a camera for live streams for this summer.
@marriard My last 2020 just signed. She was a late bloomer and worked very hard to become a very cometent pitcher. Found a home and could not be happier.'21 and '22 - well it will make Winter more important... LIke normal students. There is still SOME time.
However, the '20 class has been totally killed through all these changes. School starts in a few months (maybe?).
Some obviously should have started earlier, however, there is a number where it wasn't in their control. There are girls who decided late that they might want to play in college, Girls coming off an injury. Some that academically didn't get into the school they wanted. Some told they no longer have a roster spot because of a new coach. Some that realized the school wasn't for them... and so on. That is all pretty much gone for all of them.
Also coaching turnover hasn't stopped. Many athletic dept's have furloughed until school starts (including NAIA, D2 & D3). A few programs (and schools) are wondering if they will ever restart.
Despite various myths, the majority of college teams pick up 2-3 seniors heading into the school year for a variety of reasons. That is going to be tough. August - if it happens - will be insane.
Coaches like myself and @riseball place graduated seniors on college teams every year. My org is so far lucky this year as we only have I think 1 across several teams who need a home. We are close there.
D1 or other? I didn't think D1 could do anything in person.Plenty of coaches at our tournament this weekend. Just cant talk but still build their list, right? Coach was asked for a lot of profiles
