to show off the talents of fastpitch softball players in front of
College Coaches in hopes of catching their eye and getting a place on a college roster and possibly a scholarship for college. The tournaments are for college bound juniors or seniors and usually involve 4 games played of 2 days. These are regulation games, certified umps
and
game scores are kept informally but there are no standings, no advancement or
tournament winners. Everyone is there to highlight the talent of individual
players. Each girl brings at least one page of biographical information containing
both academic and athletic statistics and accomplishments with them and that
information is available to college coaches attending. Their sheets contain
data on High School, travelball, camps, skills etc. The college coaches watch
the girls play under actual game conditions, in the past many of our local girls
have received full or partial scholarships to college after attending one of
the college showcases.
