Getting in front of coaches isn’t always easy, and let’s be honest, first and foremost, coaches are looking for gifted athletes with baseball skills. These kinds of kids are in demand but there are many schools competing for them and obviously coaches know that. NCAA legislation states that a team can have no more than 35 players on their roster so coaches are looking for players with ability who can develop their skills, have good character and work ethic and a passion for the game. But what if they don’t find you? Having a platform to showcase your abilities, GPA, test scores, and references in a captivating, clean package is truly valuable. Videos and photos can showcase your pitching mechanics to coaches, or let’s say your velocity is just average but your breaking ball is plus, our player profiles allow you to feature your personal favorites on your very own page. Options for multiple videos means coaches can see you pitch from a variety of angles, and styles.
These days its not just employers who do web searches on candidates, coaches and schools look up potential players and students on a regular basis. Not only is it important to clean up your social media and be conscious of your actions online it can be extremely valuable to have a profile purely dedicated to your baseball career.
