Would-be high school baseball recruits need to do more than just play great baseball to get noticed by college recruiters; they need to get their skills in front of the right people. Baseball is a competitive sport, but the competition for slots in college baseball teams and athletic scholarships is even fiercer. With the right strategies, you can increase your visibility without breaking the NCAA's strict recruiting rules.

Potential high school baseball recruits should start planning their collegiate futures at least by their sophomore years. Excellent steps include earning good grades (you must meet the GPA requirements of your chosen schools), gathering the names and contact information of coaches who interest you, collecting video clips of your best plays and working hard on your fundamentals. However, contact with the coaches at your favorite schools is severely limited by NCAA regulations, especially during your sophomore and junior years.
