70% of our roster attended our Elite Prospect Camp. 6 of 7 incoming freshman attending at least one year during high school. This is NOT just a money maker. This is a HUGE recruiting opportunity! Recruits get to interact with players, coaches and be immersed in campus life!
Travel coaches: if there is a covered area behind home plate, please make sure your parents know to keep this area vacant for college coaches, especially when there are covered bleachers and room for tents! This is the area that coaches can watch the entire field and pitchers!
Travel coaches: small ask from a college coach. When you are utilizing your team's social media account, pin the team roster or brochure with names/position/class/emails... Etc. We as coaches are utilizing social media more and it would help a great deal if we didn't have to dig!
Today's Elite Prospect Camp was a huge success. Thank you to all of the athletes who participated, the parents/coaches that brought them and to our student-athletes for being great representatives of our program!

Only a few more spots left in our Elite Prospect Camp! Great opportunity for athletes to run through practice like drills and showcase skills in controlled scrimmages. This is the BEST way to make sure you get in front of our staff!
UMO Softball will be hosting its Elite Prospect Camp August 28, 2021. This camp will be open to 9th-12th grade student-athletes interested in showcasing their talent and learning more about UMO.

Athletes need to decide whether they want to play college athletics or just be recruited. Too many times you have athletes tell you that they "just want an opportunity" and then they can't respond or complete simple tasks in timely manners! Coaches want self-sufficient athletes!
Our UMO Softball Elite Prospect Camp is filling up way faster than normal! The cutoff is 40 and there are less than half the spots available! Come be with us on September 7th in Pickletown!
In less than a week, over 50% of our Prospect Camp spots have been filled. Over 65% of our current players attended this exact camp. Great opportunity for athletes to run through practice like drills and showcase skills in controlled scrimmages.
Being on a team is an honor and privilege. A player gives up the right to be selfish and average when their teammates depend on them. Recognize that you play for something so much bigger than your personal goals or self recognition. Embrace your role every game, compete and find
