Sports play an important role in college; there are over 600 colleges that offer sports scholarships at the intercollegiate level. Today’s coaches do not have the time or money to find you; it is up to YOU to find the coaches and for YOU, the high school athlete to determine the school that is going to be right for you. 

To get recruited, and be in line for college sports scholarships YOU MUST be the one to become known to the college coaches. Your sporting ability can only get you recruited if you tell the coaches who you are, and what you can do in the form of a resume or profile. There are no "secrets" in the recruiting process, it’s simply a marketing exercise and YOU, the athlete, are the product. Currently there are many companies who are advertising their services on the Internet without revealing what it is that they will do for you for prices in excess of $2,000 per year. Here at NBU Sports we will share with you the secrets about the college recruiting game without charging you big fees. .

What we do at NBU Sports is based upon our knowledge of the college recruiting experience. It is not not rocket science; it just takes time and effort. We have set up for you a powerful sports web site that works for you 365 days a year 24/7. We have leveraged our expertise, experience and time to build something that will work for you at prices that are advertised and with full and complete disclosure.  

We at NBU Sports have 10 full time employees who will be working for you. We know what coaches are looking for and our staff will work with you to build your online profile to attract the attention of college coaches across the country. Our price $125 for a full year of online advertising.  

Your On Line Sports Profile

Most baseball players will have to market themselves. Baseball is a non revenue sport at the collegiate level. Before you get to high school you should be thinking about how you are going to do be marketed. Athletes must absolutely be involved in the process as it affects them. Do not leave it to chance, by trusting a service that makes broad undefined promises with results that are impossible to be measured. Empower yourself to be in control and identified by having an Online Sports Profile.

One of the best first steps a college bound athlete should begin to take is to begin to develop an Online Sports Profile that you have complete control over. Having an on line sports profile will eventually help you in the application process for college athletic scholarships. The key is to get recruited to playing a collegiate sport. Decisions are being made in the spring of an athlete's junior year, not in the winter of their senior year. So having an online athletic profile that is available to coaches is a highly beneficial step toward getting exposure and getting the scholarship you are seeking. There are many athletic scholarships available to high school athletes, but you must have a professional look and appearance to be considered. An online profile that supplements a professionally prepared resume and application gives you the edge with the people who count; the college coaches.

Many young athletes (and their parents) under estimate what the sports recruiting process is all about. It takes time and it takes work. It is not easy and do not count on services that make promises that they will get the college coaches just coming to you with scholarship offers. It doesn't work that way unless you are in the top 2% of athletes who are graduating in your class. It is pretty hard to know who that group will be until the awards are being passed out. By then if you are not among the elite trying to catch up and make up for the lost time is impossible. That is why it is not too soon to begin to prepare for the goals that you want to achieve.

It doesn't matter how good you are, to get yourself recruited and be considered for a baseball scholarship you need to tell the college coaches who you are and why you deserve to be recruited. The most effective way to do this is with an online profile that is working for you 24/7 around the clock and 365 days a year.

There are 285 Division 1 and 230 Division II colleges that offer NCAA baseball scholarships. That's a total of 5,428 scholarships in the NCAA alone. The NCAA allows each Division I baseball program 11.78 scholarships and in Division II there are 9 scholarships to offer. NAIA colleges can offer a maximum of  12 scholarships.

Not all scholarships are full ride like in Football. Football is a so called "head count sports"; but most sports are classed as "equivalency sports" like NCAA baseball. This means that a coach can divide the 12 scholarships between a larger number of baseball players. Say 25 partial instead of 12 full ride scholarships. If you are good enough of course then a full ride baseball scholarship is always a possibility. And good pitchers will get the bulk of that scholarship money pot. But realize that not many pitchers get full rides; however, a good pitcher can get between .70 and .90 of a scholarship. A .50 scholarship is considered a great deal by other position players.

You can expect between a .25 and .40 scholarship for a good player. The slices get awful thin trying to fill out a team. The key is to go for as much athletic and academic scholarship money as you can get; that's where a good bump can come from to get you into the pitcher scholarship area.

Some Facts

The San Jose Mercury News reported that there are about 41 million kids who are involved in playing organized sports. Only a small fraction of those players will be privileged to get the opportunity --6.9 million--to play at the varsity high school level.

Now compare that to the 360,000 student-athletes who play in one of the three divisions of the National Collegiate Athletic Association. Among those elite athletes, 126,000 earn a share of the $1 billion in athletic scholarships available. And while $1 billion sounds like a lot of money, it works out to less than $8,000 per athlete, which wouldn't cover even half a year of tuition at a private college. That means that only 5 percent of all boys and girls who participate in interscholastic sports will go on to compete in college at some level - Division I, II, III NAIA, or junior college.

By comparison, there is $22 billion available in academic scholarships, making the brain the body part most likely to earn a kid a college education.

So what's a parent to do? Experts say the real opportunity for kids in sports who are college bound is learning how to make the academic and athletic scholarship system work for them to be able to for all of the scholarships that are available. Eighty three percent of the opportunities to compete in college are realized outside of Division I.
