The coaches that pay for the service provide the scouting profiles for their own playersI've seen these online. How's it work?
There's absolutely no way people are traveling around the nation comparing 12U players. So they're just getting input from coaches, right? Coaches submit their players? It certainly seems like something people could pay for placement, or game the system.
Higher % than the 12th kid on the roster despite the David vs Goliath bias shown on here...I wonder how many of those "top 100" as a 12yo are still playing by the time they're 18?
Making the list does not guarantee that a player is any good, It just guarantees that somebody (cough)parent(cough) submitted their name for the list.
I don’t have a subscription, but back when it was free the ranked kids were all top ball players. With pretty much every college touting where their recruiting classes rank it looks like that hasn’t changed. I should add I’m only talking about 16U/18U. They didn’t do 12U back when I followed it.
