COLLEGE RECRUITING

TRIVIA

Page 29: Rage recruiting 2013

There are about 1,150 4-­year college teams. Roughly 25% are Div. I; about 23% are Div. II and all the rest are D-­III and NAIA. (In other words, 75% of all collegiate players will not compete at a Div. I program) Less than 2% of College softball players receive full athletic scholarship. Many student-­athletes receive a combination of athletic and academic money. Sixty percent (60%) of all colleges are small -­ as in having student populations of 6,000 or less.

Page 30: Rage recruiting 2013

Approx. 55% of schools offer some type

majority that do, will not give out very many (if any) full rides.

Division I and II schools typically have rosters of 16-­22 players. Most Division I schools are given 12 full scholarships and Division II 7.2 to work with.

NJCAA (Junior Colleges) are given 24 scholarships to work with.

All scholarships must be renewed on a yearly basis. There is no such thing as a guaranteed 4 year ride.

Page 31: Rage recruiting 2013

90% or 9 out of 10 schools with teams are in states EAST of Colorado. That means only 10% of all college teams are in the West. Wyoming has no 4-­year schools with teams. Arizona, Utah, Nevada, New Mexico, Idaho, Montana and Hawaii have only a few college programs each. Oregon and Washington only have 5 D-­I softball schools between them! California has more than any other West region state, but many are limited to in-­state scholarships.

There are approx. 70-­80,000 graduating high school players every year. Some won't want to play college ball. But if even 25% (20,000) of them decide to see if they can make a college team, it presents ferocious competition because only about 4,500 total spots on college teams open up each year.
