Questions
When does softball recruiting start?
Earlier than many sports, often through travel ball. NCAA rules limit when coaches can contact you, but you can email coaches and share film at any time.
What should a softball skills video show?
Hitting, fielding and throwing from clear angles, plus pitching with speed for pitchers. Keep it short and label yourself.
