College Softball Recruiting Scouting and Scholarship Information
It doesn’t matter how good you are, to get scouted-recruited and be in line for a college softball scholarship you need to tell the college coaches who you are and why you deserve to be recruited. You have to make it happen, you have to contact the coaches and tell them what you have to offer their softball program and why you deserve financial aid . COACHES AND SCOUTS CANNOT EVALUATE YOUR POTENTIAL FOR IF THEY DON’T KNOW YOU’RE OUT THERE.
Not all athletic scholarships are full ride like football and basketball, so called “head count sports”, most are classed as “equivalency sports”, like softball. Put simply this means that coaches can “share” their allocation between a larger number of players.
This is good news for the players. In division 1 a coach can divide “12″ scholarships between a larger number of players. Say 25 partial instead of 12 full ride scholarships. If you are good enough of course then a full ride scholarship is always on the cards.
There are 262 division 1 and 253 division 2 colleges that offer softball scholarships.
That’s a total of 4,965.6 softball grants available in the NCAA alone.
College softball scouting is very competitive, college softball coaches and scouts are looking for softball players with well rounded talents. You should go to a college softball camp, it’s a great way to get noticed and increase your recruiting opportunities and your chances of being scouted by softball recruiters.
Our recruiting service can help you when applying for NCAA-NAIA softball scholarships. Many fine young athletes are overlooked each year because they didn’t submit their athletic profile to the “right” colleges or left out important information. It’s also a fact that many colleges simply don’t allocate all of their softball recruiting funds because “suitable” athletes didn’t approach them.
The NCAA allows each division I softball program 12 scholarships and 7.2 in division II.
As a high school softball player you should be aware that the standard of NAIA and NCAA softball is very high. We recommend that you attend a few games to gauge the actual intensity of play at this level. Remember that only the absolute top players will be approached with softball scholarship offers.
Most softball players will have to market themselves. You can try to do this yourself or use our softball scholarship recruiting service.
IMPORTANT: You are not breaching any NCAA or NAIA rules by using our college softball scouting and recruiting service.
