    What bats do you like?

    My wife still has her easton synergy scx24b 33/23 2000 ASA stamp....she said she would rank it prety high. A little off subject but what would you belive this bat could sell for. No dents...no cracks...no webbing...no rattle. I would say good condition would need new grip.

    Recruiting Websites

    Its difficult to get an exact answer for this question because everyone your dealing with looks for different things. I know some coaches that would rather see the leg work be done by the player and I know there are coaches who have built good relationships with some companies and look for them...

    Nothing is final until there is ink on the paper!!!!

    Not likely. I don't think it was something the family was ready for financially apart from financial aid.

    Nothing is final until there is ink on the paper!!!!

    Yes that would be a good idea! Thank You. Ill make sure to tell her that with these other schools she still talking with. I guess you can never assume people know what your trying to say....eventho it may be clear as day!

    Nothing is final until there is ink on the paper!!!!

    This happened to one of our soccer players but I thought it would be good to share..... Just recently one of our soccer players had been talking to a few D1 school. She had her eye and heart set on 1 school in particular in the west coast. She had sent her video to the coach, attended their...

    College Exposure !!!

    I agree with perfect cirlce- You can get so much more exposure by the video and personally emailing the link to the coaches becuase you never know what kind of responce you will get. Went to a soccer showcase here in Cali with a family member...she is a D1 recruit...but has not got the offers...

    Recruiting videos: Make it yourself Vs. Hiring a company....Whats best?

    Thats a great checklist ....thank you... I know my concern should be about getting good footage and an accurate representation of the player but I know the editing can also turn a coach away from the start....so as far as music is concerned is it best to have a quick music intro of a few...

    Recruiting videos: Make it yourself Vs. Hiring a company....Whats best?

    Thats really good information to know....especially about not using a recruiting service. I was not aware that some coaches would do that. But I guess every coach has their own method and ways. I did also see that there are some places that just make videos and others who offer more recruiting...

    Recruiting videos: Make it yourself Vs. Hiring a company....Whats best?

    Good point! Its one of those ....creating a good first impression....that would be my concern. I know coaches view alot of videos and while I was watching some on youtube there were definaltey some that grab your attention right off the bat and some that I wouldnt want to continue watching...

    Recruiting videos: Make it yourself Vs. Hiring a company....Whats best?

    What are your thoughts on making players recruiting videos...? Ive looked into some companies that charge anywhere from $300-$500....Just for the video with no other services of recruiting. I was wondering if that would be a good investment or something I could do my self...I would need to...

    Does TB team matter for recruitement?

    Intrested not untreated ....sorry.

    Does TB team matter for recruitement?

    The teams and tourneys they play in do play a part in getting noticed but your DD has to stand out somehow. I agree with the post of contacting coaches before the tourneys letting them know you will be there and are untreated and show them what they will be seeing by sending them a skills video...

    getting noticed by colleges

    It depends on what the family and DD want. For example we had one of our players get a great offer by an NAIA school here in CA but they didnt have her major. She didnt want to stay in school more time than she had to and in this case she would be spending an extra 2 years (shes out of JC) in...

    First offer

    Congrats on the good news!!!! Also keep in mind that you can reach more coaches by personally emailing your daughters skills video to them ...especially if the show cases are near the school of her choice and leting them know you will be close by. Its worked great for even some of our JC girls...
