The Junior Day Softball National will be held on the campus of the University of Michigan in Ann Arbor, MI. The participants in the Junior Day National event will represent some of the best players across the country who attended a previous Junior Day Softball regional event this summer or received an invite. Players will be given the opportunity to work with our on-field staff of college coaches to get valuable feedback on their skills through a written evaluation that will break down all of the valued metrics in today’s game. We will also be inviting other coaches to the event to observe the two days of action.

Players will be broken down into eight teams that will represent regions of the United States. Each team will consist of 2 catchers, 3 pitchers, 2 first base, 4 infielders, 4 outfielders, and 1 utility. Players will rotate throughout gameplay to ensure equal playing time and adequate evaluation.

WHAT WILL BE INCLUDED AS PART OF THE NATIONAL SHOWCASE:
TEAM SHOWCASE: Each team will get a session on-field with the coaches for evaluation in POP time, home to first time, hitting exit velocity, batting practice and extended infield/outfield with recorded throwing velocities.

INDIVIDUAL TEAM TALK: Each team will get to have a more intimate discussion with a college coach to ask questions and discuss what coaches look for in gameplay and showcase environments.

GAMES: Each team will play four games through Saturday and Sunday. All players will receive equal playing time to ensure a proper in-game evaluation.

SEMINAR ON COLLEGE DEVELOPMENT & RECRUITING: Team showcases are complete, our staff of coaches will present a discussion with parents and players on development at the college level and the college recruiting process. This will be an open forum between parents, players and the coaches that are involved in these processes on a day to day basis.

HOW DOES THIS DIFFER FROM A STANDARD JUNIOR DAY SOFTBALL REGIONAL EVENT?
 

Much like our Junior Day regional events we will put college coaches on the field with high school players who want to learn about today’s game from the actual coaches who are at the college level. However, there are some great additions to our National Event that you won’t see in a regional setting:

1. Live Game Play with present playing schedules
2. Written Evaluation
3. Skill Metrics Evaluation
4. Intimate small group discussions with coaches about how to engage college coaches in a coaching and showcasing environment
5. Each player will be provided a Junior Day National numbered jersey
6. Opportunity to compete against players from all over the country
