View Our Team During the last 11+ years, we’ve helped over 1,000 players make their college commitments, helping families save over $50 Million in college financial packages. Unlike most recruiting companies, we DO NOT just partner with anyone. Instead, we only partner with qualified student-athletes who meet our Five academic, athletic, and coachability selection factors. Our staff personally evaluates well over 10,000 players each year at top tournaments, camps, and showcases. However we selectively advise, and advocate for only a few hundred players each year. We carefully maintain a trusted nationwide network of hundreds of NCAA DI, DII, DIII, NAIA, and junior college coaches that we regularly communicate with in order to give our select group of players’ a competitive recruiting advantage to maximize potential offers. We give our players and families a competitive edge in the recruiting process, help maximize their recruiting offers, and make the best all-around college decision. We have numerous recruiting case studies and parent written success stories to prove it. Read Some of Our Case Studies

The foundation was a joint effort between college coaches and select clubs to establish events that provide quality competition at quality venues. The goal is to provide events that allow the players to showcase their abilities and do so in a manner that is friendly to the college recruiters and professional scouts while allowing the clubs to maintain fiscal responsibility to their members. Our goal is to host local teams seeking exposure for their players while accommodating out of town clubs in a manner that minimizes travel and the expenses associated with select baseball. The mix of local and regional clubs provides great competition in a central location that is convenient for college recruiters and professional scouts in the central, Midwest, Northwest, Southeast, Texas, and West regions.
