College RecruitingDevelopment Seminar

2019

GBG Northeast Hawks and RBI Baseball Academy

The GBG Northeast Hawks program is very proud to help our athletes prepare for their future

We firmly believe that playing college baseball is a tremendous goal that we are happy to help

our athletes achieve but success on and off the baseball field starts and ends with the player

themselves Parents coaches advisors etc are all great resources for players but unless the

player is committed to constantly develop and improve their skills on the field and in the

classroom playing college baseball is not something anyone can help with For players that

understand that development is a step by step process that requires a tremendous amount of

focus and discipline we are excited to help you through this process This is YOUR life and the

sooner you take ownership over it the more success you will have

There is a lot to learn about the process of getting into a college and playing baseball at that

school The first step to this process is to develop into the best student you can be The second

step is to develop into the best baseball player you can be Once yoursquove made the commitment

to become a strong studentathlete itrsquos time to obtain the knowledge you need about the

process of getting into college and playing college baseball

The GBG Northeast Hawks strongly believe in helping you find the BEST FIT for you and your

future We arenrsquot interested in helping players ldquobeatrdquo their peers and get into the best college

like itrsquos winning some sort of contest We are interested in helping YOU find the best FIT for YOU

We are here to help you achieve your own goals and dreams as you move from high school

student to college student and beyond

THE FACTS

Estimated probability of competing in college athletics

Nearly eight million students currently participate in high school athletics in the United States More than 480000 compete as NCAA

athletes and just a select few within each sport move on to compete at the professional or Olympic level The table shows how many

high school and NCAA athletes compete in each sport along with an estimate of the percentage of high school athletes going on to

compete in the NCAA In contrast the likelihood of an NCAA athlete earning a college degree is significantly greater graduation success

rates are 86 in Division I 71 in Division II and 87 in Division III

What these numbers mean to you

1) 71 of players that play high school baseball continue to play at the NCAA level If a high school conference as 9 schools and

each school has 8 seniors that total 72 graduating seniors for that entire conference Using the NCAAorg data that means

approximately 5 players from that conference will continue their baseball careers in college This is simply a number for

reference and geography level of competition and many other factors affect those numbers

a Also using this math 1 or 2 of those seniors will be ldquoD1rdquo players

b Keep in mind this is a national average though With the high concentration of D2-D3 schools within the NORTH EAST

area These numbers are skewed heavily in favor of New England athletes but at what ldquolevelrdquo

i Out of 452 schools in the USA with D3 athletic programs (not just baseball) 226 of them are in the North

East (PA and geographically north and east) (50)

ii Out of 274 schools in the USA with D2 baseball programs 51 of them are from the North East region (19)

iii Out of 299 schools in the USA with D1 baseball programs 39 of them are in that same geographical region

(13)

2) Another fact ndash The GBG Northeast Hawks of players that have the ability to play at the collegiate level is exponentially higher

than standard high school average

3) These numbers are estimated players who continue to play in college This is NOT players who receive college scholarships to

play in college from those baseball programs

4) See the next section to learn about the levels that are within each of these levels

From wwwAthleticScholarshipsnet College Baseball Programs and Scholarships

There are over 1600 college baseball programs with approximately 50000 college baseball players College baseball is categorized as an equivalency sport which means that scholarships can be divided up and given to multiple players Therefore full-ride athletic scholarships are rare in college baseball and some players are either on partial athletic scholarships or do not receive athletic scholarship money In addition some programs are not ldquofully fundedrdquo meaning the athletic department at the school does not give them the full allotment of scholarships allowed at their level

NCAA Division I Baseball Scholarships

There are approximately 299 NCAA Division I baseball programs with each team being allowed to offer a maximum of (117) scholarships Under NCAA rules these 117 scholarships can be divided between a maximum of 27 players with all players on athletic scholarship having to receive a minimum of a 25 scholarship

NCAA Division II Baseball Scholarships

There are approximately 274 NCAA Division II baseball programs with each team having a maximum of (90) scholarships per team Recruiting rules are similar to the Division I level with the exception of the distribution of scholarships

NCAA Division III Baseball Scholarships

There are approximately 387 NCAA Division III programs across the country There are more opportunities to play college baseball at the Division III level than any other level made up of four-year institutions Division III programs are not able to offer athletic scholarships but can put together attractive financial aid packages that rival the partial athletic scholarships at other levels

NAIA Baseball Scholarships

There are approximately 184 NAIA baseball programs with each program being allowed to offer up to (12) scholarships per team With this scholarship number NAIA programs are allowed to offer more athletic scholarships than any other level with four-year schools

Junior College Baseball Scholarships

There are approximately 512 junior college baseball programs with each team being allowed to offer up to (24) scholarships

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

What this means to you

1) Itrsquos important to understand the levels within each of these divisions as well Many D2 programs would compete nationally with a large amount of D1 programs for various reasons Similar can be said with D3 to D2

2) The top 2 of players national donrsquot play D1 the next 2 donrsquot play D2 the next donrsquot play D3 It doesnrsquot work that way 3) Players are RECRUITED off of projections that donrsquot always work out but itrsquos important to go into the process knowing itrsquos not

perfect 4) Each program recruits 3 type of players much like students look at collegesuniversities in 3 different categories

a The ldquoReachrdquo players b The ldquoProfilerdquo players c The ldquoRoster Fillersrdquo

What these numbers mean to you

1) 71 of players that play high school baseball continue to play at the NCAA level If a high school conference as 9 schools and

each school has 8 seniors that total 72 graduating seniors for that entire conference Using the NCAAorg data that means

approximately 5 players from that conference will continue their baseball careers in college This is simply a number for

reference and geography level of competition and many other factors affect those numbers

a Also using this math 1 or 2 of those seniors will be ldquoD1rdquo players

b Keep in mind this is a national average though With the high concentration of D2-D3 schools within the NORTH EAST

area These numbers are skewed heavily in favor of New England athletes but at what ldquolevelrdquo

i Out of 452 schools in the USA with D3 athletic programs (not just baseball) 226 of them are in the North

East (PA and geographically north and east) (50)

ii Out of 274 schools in the USA with D2 baseball programs 51 of them are from the North East region (19)

iii Out of 299 schools in the USA with D1 baseball programs 39 of them are in that same geographical region

(13)

2) Another fact ndash The GBG Northeast Hawks of players that have the ability to play at the collegiate level is exponentially higher

than standard high school average

3) These numbers are estimated players who continue to play in college This is NOT players who receive college scholarships to

play in college from those baseball programs

THE FACTS

Estimated probability of competing in college athletics

Nearly eight million students currently participate in high school athletics in the United States More than 480000 compete as NCAA

athletes and just a select few within each sport move on to compete at the professional or Olympic level The table shows how many

high school and NCAA athletes compete in each sport along with an estimate of the percentage of high school athletes going on to

compete in the NCAA In contrast the likelihood of an NCAA athlete earning a college degree is significantly greater graduation success

rates are 86 in Division I 71 in Division II and 87 in Division III

What these numbers mean to you

1) 71 of players that play high school baseball continue to play at the NCAA level If a high school conference as 9 schools and

each school has 8 seniors that total 72 graduating seniors for that entire conference Using the NCAAorg data that means

approximately 5 players from that conference will continue their baseball careers in college This is simply a number for

reference and geography level of competition and many other factors affect those numbers

a Also using this math 1 or 2 of those seniors will be ldquoD1rdquo players

b Keep in mind this is a national average though With the high concentration of D2-D3 schools within the NORTH EAST

area These numbers are skewed heavily in favor of New England athletes but at what ldquolevelrdquo

i Out of 452 schools in the USA with D3 athletic programs (not just baseball) 226 of them are in the North

East (PA and geographically north and east) (50)

ii Out of 274 schools in the USA with D2 baseball programs 51 of them are from the North East region (19)

iii Out of 299 schools in the USA with D1 baseball programs 39 of them are in that same geographical region

(13)

2) Another fact ndash The GBG Northeast Hawks of players that have the ability to play at the collegiate level is exponentially higher

than standard high school average

3) These numbers are estimated players who continue to play in college This is NOT players who receive college scholarships to

play in college from those baseball programs

4) See the next section to learn about the levels that are within each of these levels

From wwwAthleticScholarshipsnet College Baseball Programs and Scholarships

There are over 1600 college baseball programs with approximately 50000 college baseball players College baseball is categorized as an equivalency sport which means that scholarships can be divided up and given to multiple players Therefore full-ride athletic scholarships are rare in college baseball and some players are either on partial athletic scholarships or do not receive athletic scholarship money In addition some programs are not ldquofully fundedrdquo meaning the athletic department at the school does not give them the full allotment of scholarships allowed at their level

NCAA Division I Baseball Scholarships

There are approximately 299 NCAA Division I baseball programs with each team being allowed to offer a maximum of (117) scholarships Under NCAA rules these 117 scholarships can be divided between a maximum of 27 players with all players on athletic scholarship having to receive a minimum of a 25 scholarship

NCAA Division II Baseball Scholarships

There are approximately 274 NCAA Division II baseball programs with each team having a maximum of (90) scholarships per team Recruiting rules are similar to the Division I level with the exception of the distribution of scholarships

NCAA Division III Baseball Scholarships

There are approximately 387 NCAA Division III programs across the country There are more opportunities to play college baseball at the Division III level than any other level made up of four-year institutions Division III programs are not able to offer athletic scholarships but can put together attractive financial aid packages that rival the partial athletic scholarships at other levels

NAIA Baseball Scholarships

There are approximately 184 NAIA baseball programs with each program being allowed to offer up to (12) scholarships per team With this scholarship number NAIA programs are allowed to offer more athletic scholarships than any other level with four-year schools

Junior College Baseball Scholarships

There are approximately 512 junior college baseball programs with each team being allowed to offer up to (24) scholarships

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

What this means to you

1) Itrsquos important to understand the levels within each of these divisions as well Many D2 programs would compete nationally with a large amount of D1 programs for various reasons Similar can be said with D3 to D2

2) The top 2 of players national donrsquot play D1 the next 2 donrsquot play D2 the next donrsquot play D3 It doesnrsquot work that way 3) Players are RECRUITED off of projections that donrsquot always work out but itrsquos important to go into the process knowing itrsquos not

perfect 4) Each program recruits 3 type of players much like students look at collegesuniversities in 3 different categories

a The ldquoReachrdquo players b The ldquoProfilerdquo players c The ldquoRoster Fillersrdquo

Dear Coach Boen

My name is Chris Welch I am a student at RBI High School in Foxboro MA graduating in 2018 I am very interested in

pursuing Stonehill College as a studentathlete and I would like to learn more about your program and would like to give you

information about myself (Basic Introduction showing who you are and where you go)

I have been researching schools in New England that offer criminology as a major as Irsquom very interested in pursuing that in

college and I noticed Stonehill was a top rated criminology program in the country Combining a top educational program and a top

baseball program is something Irsquom very passionate about and I think Stonehill would be a great place for me to do that (Show a

SPECIFIC interest in the schoolprogram not just a cookie cutter line)

I am a 7rsquo3rsquorsquo 345 pound Right Handed Pitcher and in the summer I play for the GBG Hawks out of Foxboro MA My schedule

for both my high school season and summer season can be found attached My summer baseball coach is Joe Breen and his phone

number is 508-543-9595 and his email is jbreenrbiacademycom if you would like to contact him for further information about me

as a player (Describe yourself specifically where you play in the summer and provide contact information)

Last year as a sophomore I went 7-2 for RBI High School and over the summer I had a 24 ERA with 50 strikeouts in 35 innings

For further information you can view my online profile here ________ I have also included a video of myself that can be view here

_____________ (BRAG ABOUT YOURSELF a bit if yoursquove gained 20 pounds in 6 months to enhance yourself say it here If you were a

league All Star say it here Provide stats with the understanding that theyrsquore not super important but therersquos nothing wrong with

being proud of your accomplishments If you helped your team win a championship make sure to write that in here)

I would like to find out what the next step for me would be If there is a camp over the summer or fall I would love to attend

if you could please send me any information on registration for that I am really looking forward to discussing the potential of playing

and studying at Stonehill College with you and look forward to hearing back from you (Donrsquot end the conversation make this about

continuing the conversation and ensure they are aware you want to continue the dialogue and want to know the next step)

Recruiting Calendars FROM NCAACOM

NCAA member schools have adopted rules to create an equitable recruiting environment that promotes student-athlete well-being

The rules define who may be involved in the recruiting process when recruiting may occur and the conditions under which recruiting

may be conducted Recruiting rules seek as much as possible to control intrusions into the lives of student-athletes

The NCAA defines recruiting as ldquoany solicitation of prospective student-athletes or their parents by an institutional staff member or by

a representative of the institutionrsquos athletics interests for the purpose of securing a prospective student-athletersquos enrollment and

ultimate participation in the institutionrsquos intercollegiate athletics programrdquo

What is a contact A contact occurs any time a college coach says more than hello during a face-to-face contact with a college-

bound student-athlete or his or her parents off the collegersquos campus

What is a contact period During a contact period a college coach may have face-to-face contact with college-bound student-

athletes or their parents watch student-athletes compete and visit their high schools and write or telephone student-athletes or their

parents

What is an evaluation period During an evaluation period a college coach may watch college-bound student-athletes compete

visit their high schools and write or telephone student-athletes or their parents However a college coach may not have face-to-face

contact with college-bound student-athletes or their parents off the collegersquos campus during an evaluation period

What is a quiet period During a quiet period a college coach may only have face-to-face contact with college-bound student-

athletes or their parents on the collegersquos campus A coach may not watch student-athletes compete (unless a competition occurs on

the collegersquos campus) or visit their high schools Coaches may write or telephone college-bound student-athletes or their parents

during this time

What is a dead period During a dead period a college coach may not have face-to-face contact with college-bound student-

athletes or their parents and may not watch student-athletes compete or visit their high schools Coaches may write and telephone

student-athletes or their parents during a dead period

What is the difference between an official visit and an unofficial visit Any visit to a college campus by a college-bound

student-athlete or his or her parents paid for by the college is an official visit Visits paid for by college-bound student-athletes or their

parents are unofficial visits During an official visit the college can pay for transportation to and from the college for the prospect

lodging and three meals per day for both the prospect and the parent or guardian as well as reasonable entertainment expenses

including three tickets to a home sports event The only expenses a college-bound student-athlete may receive from a college during

an unofficial visit are three tickets to a home sports event

13

What is a National Letter of Intent A National Letter of Intent is signed by a college-bound student-athlete when the student-

athlete agrees to attend a Division I or II college or university for one academic year Participating institutions agree to provide

financial aid for one academic year to the student-athlete as long as the student-athlete is admitted to the school and is eligible for

financial aid under NCAA rules Other forms of financial aid do not guarantee the student-athlete financial aid The National Letter of

Intent is voluntary and not required for a student-athlete to receive financial aid or participate in sports Signing an National Letter of

Intent ends the recruiting process since participating schools are prohibited from recruiting student-athletes who have already signed

letters with other participating schools A student-athlete who has signed a National Letter of Intent may request a release from his or

her contract with the school If a student-athlete signs a National Letter of Intent with one school but attends a different school he or

she will lose one full year of eligibility and must complete a full academic year at their new school before being eligible to compete
