College recruiting for high school athletes

Baseball recruiting for high school and travel ball players

College baseball coaches build their lists from numbers they trust and video they can watch, and they can't see every player. REACH shows you the programs where your grades and your budget line up, D1 to junior college, then puts you, your measurables, your travel team and your video in front of their coaches.

Division III

The most NCAA programs. No athletic scholarships, but many players get academic and need-based aid.

NAIA

How to Get Recruited for College Baseball

How to get recruited for college baseball: the levels, a school list that fits, numbers and video coaches trust, when coaches can contact you, what to send.

How REACH works for baseball

Find where you fit. Then get in front of those coaches.

1

Your fit at every program

College baseball coaches decide on video and on seeing you play, so REACH doesn't put a number on your baseball. It checks your grades against each school's admissions and shows your family's price after aid, then lines up every program where those fit. Your position, your measurables, your travel team and your video tell coaches the rest.

2

Get seen by each staff

REACH knows what each program needs next year and puts you in front of the coaches where you fit, with your position, your measurables, your travel team and your video link.

3

Replies in one place

Coach replies come back into REACH. If a coach doesn't answer, REACH drafts follow-ups for you to approve, each about something different in their program, so you never repeat yourself.

4

Parents see everything

Your parents see every coach message in full and where each school stands.

Baseball recruiting questions

Do I need to play travel ball to get recruited?

No, but it helps. Summer and fall travel ball and showcase events are where most college coaches see players in person. High school players get recruited too, especially by Division II, Division III, NAIA and junior college programs. REACH puts your travel team and your high school on your profile.

Do I need a skills video?

Yes. Baseball coaches start with a short skills video: swings, throws and fielding, or a bullpen for pitchers. Add game at-bats or innings when you have them. Put the links on your REACH profile and they go into every coach email.

When can college baseball coaches contact me?

NCAA Division I baseball coaches can start calling, texting and emailing you on August 1 before your junior year, and in-person contact off campus starts September 1 of junior year. You can email them before that. Division II, Division III, NAIA and junior college coaches have fewer limits.

Can REACH help if Division I coaches aren't reaching out?

Yes. That's who REACH is built for. Two of every three NCAA baseball players compete in Division II or III. NAIA and junior college programs add even more spots, and REACH shows you all of them for baseball.

Does REACH guarantee a roster spot?

No. REACH gets you in front of the coaches where you fit. What happens next is up to you and them.

What does REACH cost?

REACH is free to start: swipe as many schools as you like and see your fit % on every one. Full access, including coach emails, replies and follow-ups, is the Recruiting Pass at $449 once, good through graduation, or $39 a month.
