Player Evaluation Day
PLAYER EVALUATION
Many parents are doing a lot of “leg work” for their son sending all kinds of letters and
materials to college coaches. Some is very good. Most, however, based on what we have
seen, does not present the best picture or scenario for the prospect. Most could use some
professional assistance. Recognizing that everything is relative, we try to help “position”
the prospect and arouse the college coach’s curiosity! The first step in the process is for the
player to be adequately evaluated.
What we assemble is a report that includes data and comments to assist the prospect and
help him make a statement. The key factor to remember is to submit the report to college
coaches of schools that are (baseball) compatible to the prospect’s “projected” level of
competency.
Can you afford to take an hour from your busy schedule to meet with us and participate in
a series of drills that will allow us to provide YOU with the pertinent data you will want to
include in your report?
WHAT IS A PLAYER EVALUATION?
· It is not a showcase
· It is not a camp or a clinic
· It is not a game or a tournament
· IT IS A PROFESSIONAL GATHERING OF DATA AND FACTS based on a
personal (up to) 1–Hour skill workout or assessment. It is professionally
administered and certified by Ron Golden and is for serious “college bound”
prospects. A review of the recruiting process (scholarships) is also provided.
The material that is gathered (based on the workout) can then be used by the player on his
“home made” Profile that can be submitted to college coaches.

How about throwing from the slide step?
Catchers: Do you know your “pop” times? How about your blocking skills?
Fielders: How do you evaluate your: arm strength, range, hands?
Hitters: Do you know your bat speed?
Runners: Do you know your steal time (normal lead) from 1B–2B? How about
any other times?
