Olympic exposure how?

What's on your mind?

All of these things point to get the attention of college recruiters. Are there showcases or tournaments that Team USA would be looking at for recruiting purposes?

USA Softball, nee ASA, pimps their JO Cup and events as being the best venue, but it is really just BS in their attempts to reclaim their previous status of drawing the strongest teams and players. As tbjd posted, it's really about the player being the crème de la crème.

Check out the roster of the 2017 US Women's National Team - http://www.teamusa.org/USA-Softball/Team-USA/Women. It doesn't have all the best players because there's no Olympics this year to draw the top pro players. Very few current college players will make the US Olympic team.

I recommend reading all of the heybucket classic posts and pay close attention to the following HB posters including Skarp, Sam, Numero Uno, Spaz, Pdad, Fpdad05, arto, blind squirrel, GIMNEPIWO, jtat, tb, hurricane, Pale Rider, jonriv, as the world turns, Donnie S, etc (I am leaving out a few others).

That will give you plenty of variety in opinions and information moving forward. Hope you enjoy the Pole Barn thread!

Didn't mean to hijack this post, but if anyone's got a pic of a polebarn used as a practice field/hitting cage, it's a good-to-know for us So Cal'ers.

You will need to set aside some time, but it is a good read.

E09:
I was just glad that I didn't post anything stupid on that 37 page novel, but then again, I may have incorrectly searched for my stupid posts and found none. Since I have a very short attention span, I couldn't get through all the pages but there are some classic lines by some HOF HB contributors that no longer grace us with their presence.

Seriously it is very funny and enlightening! Those who don't learn from history are doomed to repeat it! You can't know where HeyBucket is going if you don't know where it has been!! Ha!
