I need help Heybucket...I am baffled with the number of coaches here in Southern California calling themselves Elite Coaches, College Recruiters etc.
I've been around long enough to see a trend developing within the last 18 months. It seems every Tom, Dick and Harry are fishing for the hard earned money of parents to send their kids to their workouts, combines etc., with hopes of a coveted College Scholarship.
On the surface it looks appealing, They advertise all the colleges that will be in attendance and to bring your child and your money to get "Noticed". They throw out names like OnDeck, FastPitch Recruits etc., but you never see the resume..
In no other area or business can anyone make quick money by a simple advertisement. The competition for the Travel Ball Dollar has escalated and it seams that parents are eager to throw money in any direction.
I AM ASKING SIMPLY "WHAT ONE WOULD CALL A LEGITIMATE TRAVEL BALL COACH/COMBINE?"
Its time parents start asking questions and demanding proof. From my perspective their aren't a whole lot of coaches that have the experience, expertise or clout to truly represent Travel Softball Players.
