Earliest time to contact college coaches.

22, this is a great time to start. Identify the schools you are interested in and give them a call or send them an email.

You can send them your HS schedule and invite them to come see you and your team.

Also, identify your summer team and forward schedule as well.

Lastly, attend their camps so they can see you in person and get to know you.

Good luck.

Thanks for the reply! What kind of things should i include when i send an email?

22,

When you send an email, introduce yourself. Tell the coaches where you're from and what high school you attend. Express your interest in the SCHOOL, and your interest in playing baseball for said school. Then, you can attach a document stating your biographical, academic, and athletic information. You can find that information under the "Recruiting Tips" tab of the main website. Then click the "Information letter" under Sample Letters.

Best of Luck!

Thanks! This should help a lot.

Yeah, mstcks is right. Start now by using this website to guide you. It is very important to get started by any means. Too much is not enough, any contact is good contact. Remember to fill out questionaires on the school's website, that puts you in their database which they can email all information as to upcoming camps/clinics and other important info. Make a list, preferably on the computer, of all your schools, head coach, phone numbers, emails and write down your contact with them and what you have heard from them.
One more thing that is helpful if you haven't done it yet is get your own email that is easy and not a foolish name, like you name @yahoo.com or something like that. I have been told by recruiters and coaches this helps. Direct contact between you and them can be made easier. Good luck.

if you are a varsity contributor now is the=== make the intro letter short and simple
