These 2031 Athletes Have been Nominated – 24 Hours Left

The countdown is on! The deadline for the Extra Inning Softball Class of 2031 Regional and National Rankings is quickly approaching, and families, coaches, and softball organizations have until November 9, 2026, to submit their athletes for consideration.

Athletes from across the country are already being nominated, and Extra Inning Softball is making it easier than ever to confirm who has officially entered the rankings evaluation process.

Our Extra Inning Softball Nomination Tracker allows families and coaches to check whether their Class of 2031 athlete’s nomination has been received.

Is your athlete on the list?

Before the deadline arrives, we encourage every family and coach to check the tracker and make sure their athlete hasn’t been overlooked.

How to Confirm Your Athlete’s Nomination

With nominations arriving from across the country, Extra Inning Softball understands how important it is for families and coaches to know whether their athlete has officially been submitted.

The Extra Inning Softball Nomination Tracker provides a convenient way to check which Class of 2031 athletes have been nominated for consideration.

Rather than contacting EIS staff individually, families can visit the tracker, search for their athlete’s name, and confirm whether a nomination has been received.

Only ONE official nomination is needed per athlete.

Submitting multiple nominations does not increase an athlete’s chances of being ranked, improve her evaluation score, or provide any advantage during the rankings process.

If your athlete appears on the tracker, there is no need to submit another nomination.

If your athlete’s name is missing, we encourage you to communicate with your coach and confirm whether a nomination has already been submitted.

Don’t wait until the deadline to find out your athlete hasn’t been nominated!

Why the Nomination Tracker Matters

The nomination process is the first important step toward being considered for Extra Inning Softball’s regional and national rankings.

Each year, talented athletes compete across the country, developing their skills, contributing to their teams, and building impressive softball résumés.

However, athletes must be officially nominated to enter the rankings evaluation process.

The tracker helps eliminate uncertainty by giving families, coaches, and organizations greater visibility into the nomination process.

It also provides an opportunity for coaches to review their organizations and ensure deserving athletes have been submitted before nominations close.

Remember: Appearing on the Nomination Tracker confirms a nomination has been received. It does not guarantee placement in the regional or national rankings.

How Extra Inning Softball Evaluates Athletes

Extra Inning Softball uses its SERV™ Methodology to evaluate athletes for regional and national recognition.

SERV stands for Software, Evaluate, Research, and Verify, a structured process designed to assess an athlete’s overall body of work.

The Rankings Committee considers performance, competition level, consistency, athletic development, and supporting information throughout the evaluation process.

Our goal is to recognize athletes based on a comprehensive review of their accomplishments rather than relying on a single statistic or performance. Learn More About the SERV™ Rankings Methodology

Give Your Athlete Even More Visibility With MyEIS360™

While nominations are an important first step, athletes can also strengthen their visibility by creating and maintaining their MyEIS360™ Athlete Profile.

These profiles provide a centralized destination for athletes to showcase their accomplishments, tournament schedules, awards, statistics, videos, and softball development.

The Extra Inning Softball Rankings Committee can review MyEIS360™ Athlete Profiles as an additional resource during evaluations, making it especially valuable for families to keep their information current.

Your athlete’s MyEIS360™ Athlete Profile is shareable and free for anyone to view—including college coaches and non-members—giving your athlete an easy way to showcase her information, accomplishments, and softball journey all in one place.

Athlete profiles can also be connected to Extra Inning Softball rankings leaderboards and editorial features, creating additional opportunities for exposure.
