<p>I have been playing Baseball for some years and since the beginning of 2013 I have been playing in an amateur team that plays in the state and national Baseball championships and is the strongest team in the state where I live with that being said, I would like to be recruited from a DIv II, III or Naia universities to continue playing Baseball while studying so I would like to know what is the best way and when is the best time to contact coaches?</p>
<p>I can only provide to the coach statistics and videos from this season, hypothetically if my stats and videos were good enough to impress the coach would it be possible to receive some scholarship with only one season of information provided? (I was thinking of some small amount)</p>
<p>squexy - if you are a 2015, now would be the best time. you’ll need to get in front of these coaches at their recruiting venues in the United States. I suggest asking (calling and email) the specific coaches to find out where they will be. D2, D3 and NAIA coaches have different timetables, process and academc requirements. For example D2 can offer athletic scholarships while D3 doens’t. I suggest you read the following (link below) to better understand the academic requirements & timetable. I’d also call the NCAA about recruitment outside the Country…not my area of expertise. Good luck.</p>
<p>Remember that academics matter. If you are in the US attending HS, your HS grades and test scores need to be good enough. If you went to HS outside the US, you have to look into more specific rules on that.</p>
<p>I would suggest starting with a college local to you that has baseball and talking to them about international student athlete issues. Usually you do NOT get an offer based on stats and videos, but you are not aiming that high so it is possible.</p>
<p>Could you speak to your coach about it, or see if he has anyone to refer you to? If you are from a strong baseball country, there might be someone back home who could help you as well.</p>
