Extra Inning Softball Signing/Verbal Database (April 19, 2018)

When it comes to softball recruiting, Wednesday, April 18^th will go down in the record books as a significant day. How it will play out will take years to realize, but this we do know now:

• starting next Wednesday, April 25^th, the first day that college coaches can begin establishing recruiting contact with a prospective student-athlete (“PSA”) will be Sept. 1 of the athlete’s junior year (pending NCAA Board of Directors’ approval on April 24^th).
• it does NOT affect the status of “verbal commits” but these players will not be able to talk recruiting with the college coaches of the school they’ve committed to until that date.
• club and high school coaches can have conversations with college coaches but there are restrictions on what is permissible and not permissible.

For us at Extra Inning Softball, we will continue tracking recruiting and profiling athletes and their recruiting journeys, no matter what form they may take moving forward!

Key to this will be our searchable “Extra Inning Softball Signing/Verbal Database” which will be updated regularly each Wednesday (the announcement yesterday pushed the launch back a day this week).

We expect news will continue to come out and our searchable database will reflect the new additions and corrections… for example, since we ran our first static commit list on Tuesday, Extra Inning Softball has received 50 new signing & verbal updates through Wednesday and another 10 since the Early Recruiting legislation was announced yesterday (which will be included next week)!
