Why Sign Up?
As a former college coach I felt that we had to offer more than just a list of names to our subscribers. Blue Star Basketball is no longer just a Report - it is a Media Package. For years, scouting reports only provided a list of players' names, but we now feel that the Blue Star MEDIA PACKAGE has become a means to connect college coaches to the grassroots basketball community across the country. By allowing our subscribers to reach out and send messages to the various high school coaches, travel coaches, and team contacts across the country, the Media Package helps to build contacts for a college program.
Our USJN basketball events are growing and we are now providing "Pool All-Star Teams" to our subscribers. As NCAA viewing periods continue to get shorter, the ability of evaluators to see all participants at a given event is nearly impossible. This feature will allow subscribers to directly receive the Top 5 players in each Pool of our various USJN events.
Along those same lines, we have expanded our staff of evaluators. In 2007 we had more than 100 years of college basketball experience on our staff. This included former head coaches as well as recruiting coordinators from various conferences all over the country. At one point last summer we had 6 evaluators covering 4 events at one time. As I tell my friends, "It is like being a recruiting coordinator without the NCAA baton rule".
Our Post Signing Period Report has become a huge hit over the past two years.
Once the November signing period occurs, we put together a listing of players that are still available, organized by state and ability. I know that after the November signing period, college coaches are looking under every rock to find good players who are still available to sign. Last year, this listing was over 140 pages long!
These additions were the best ways I knew to build bridges between the girls basketball world and college coaches at all levels. I am confident you will not be disappointed.
