2016 PGF ACADEMIC SHOWCASE CAMP- registration now open!

A GREAT OPPORTUNITY to be seen by GREAT SCHOOLS

To get a GREAT EDUCATION and play COLLEGE SOFTBALL!

Saturday, May 28th, Franklin, TN (Nashville suburb)

 

This event was sold out last year and we fully expect another advance sell-out this year as well. With over 20 high-academic institutions and a prospect to coach ratio of less than five to one, it’s no wonder that the event has such a strong turnout. If you desire to play college softball and you do well in the classroom, you really should consider attending this event. With several of the FINEST SCHOOLS IN THE NATION in attendance, few events can offer what the 2016 PGF Academic Showcase Camp will offer.

 

Moreover, the 2016 PGF Academic Showcase Camp is the ONLY ACADEMIC CAMP HELD IN THE SOUTHEAST IN 2016. Other camps of this nature cut through the primary timeframe (June/July) of the travel ball season and are located in difficult to reach locations, forcing you to miss valuable travel tournament experience and pay for expensive travel. The 2016 PGF Academic Showcase Camp is centrally located with over half the nation’s population located within a day’s drive and is held prior to the primary playing season for most travel ball teams.

 

Many of the finest schools in the country will be on hand to staff this event and get a hands-on look at the highly-academic softball talent that participates in it. Colleges from Alabama, Arkansas, Georgia, Illinois, Kentucky, Mississippi, North Carolina, Tennessee and Virginia have already committed to attend and staff the Camp. Several more schools will also be added in the coming weeks- the coaches are extremely excited about this Camp and many will bring multiple members from their staffs to fully observe and interact with all of the prospects that attend. Registration is well underway now. Last year’s event had prospects registered from Alabama, Arkansas, Arizona, Florida, Georgia, Illinois, Iowa, Indiana, Kentucky, Louisiana, Massachusetts, Michigan, Mississippi, Missouri, North Carolina, Ohio, Pennsylvania, South Carolina, Tennessee, Virginia, West Virginia and Wisconsin. Please do not delay and miss out on this great opportunity. Space in the event is limited to ASSURE MAXIMUM EXPOSURE for all that attend.

 

Finally, other Academic Showcase Camps charge $500 or more for entry. The 2016 PGF Academic Showcase Camp’s ENTRY FEE IS LESS THAN HALF OF THE THOSE EVENTS.

Please note that The 2016 PGF Academic Showcase Camp is designed to offer college exposure exclusively to academic high-achievers. A minimum requirement of a 3.75 GPA is required for admission to the Academic Showcase Camp. The Camp will be run like any other showcase camp with the exception that participants are all capable of meeting the stringent academic guidelines for admission to the colleges and universities in attendance. This event will offer instruction and coaching from some of the finest coaches in the region representing many of the best schools in the nation!

    • Way late on this post, but I do believe that I want to at least weight in so to speak lol. I wrestled NAIA competed against some of the best wrestler over all a crossed the divisions and felt great about my college wrestling experience. I think people make the mistake in believe that wrestling some how gets easier as a sport at the smaller college divisions it doesn't the training is mostly the same. I have that on good authority from a coach who was a D1 all-American. it's more the commitment level of the competitors that is different. There is talented wrestlers that can go D1 at any level in the smaller division. sub in Sammy Shires for one he would have done fine on a DI team. He chose a work life ratio that suited him. It's not about talent it's commitment are you going to make training and studying the sport the center of your world cause that's what it takes: NO MATTER HOW TALATENTED BEFORE HAND YOU ARE.  If so then D1 is for you and striving for success at that level is for you like Mr. Palmer said it's what your willing to put in. Now coaches if you have a successful wrestler who fits that bill then by all means D1 is a great option they will see some success no matter how small, but if they are not that committed along with being talented and a killer and you know it then your doing them wrong.  You don't have to tell athletes that you don't think they are D1 tell them to keep their options open to take all their visits to consider all the divisions regardless of their goals. college recruiting visits have you most times wrestle against their current wrestlers coaches and athletes  will find out real quick it's not easy no matter where you go. That way when they make their decision it's a sound one that's based on well rounded experiences.     BobCorker, and oceansize42 I believe what you are thinking is correct but for different reasons. TN wrestler's have the talent... it's a commitment level change. TN wrestlers aren't used to having to put themselves through the level of commitment required and kills them on the D1 level.    WrestlingGod, I agree you should push kids to pursue their dreams, but not at the cost of common sense period... we have to much of that going around this country already. Dreams can turn to poison when these wrestler are not educated on what it truly takes. In TN  a kid who understands wrestling to a high level can be successful with small amounts of hard work. They think their definition of hard work is enough for D1 that is the mistake not the "talent/understanding".  Over-all though we do not celebrate NAIA,D2,D3, or Juco success in this state like other states do. GA/AL celebrates all it's college wrestlers success a crossed the  board no matter the division. Why? because it's hard... I have gone to all the divisions National championships let me tell you to be a all-American at any is impressive especially D2 or NAIA. those guys can scrap and not one of those AA's are an easy match. all of them were state placers or champs multiple times in their high school careers. does that at all sound easy to place at? TN does not give those guys enough credit or shout outs period. it's an over sight because of this D1 or it's less than meaningless   mentality on this site and in this state. GA/AL is better then us on the highest stage because they send guys to D2,NAIA,D3 ect. they come back understanding the sport better then their pervious coaches, and give back and that cycles to athletes readiness to go D1 with clearer understanding of what it takes to be competitive day 1 freshman year.             My post isn't to support one way or the other but to just consider that both sides have merit and that both work when the system in TN. by system I mean coaches are the better educated on preparing athletes for each level they want and should pursue.        
    • If you think McKenzie could've beat Riverside I have a bridge you might like to buy. 
    • Hate to hear Ricky is heading to the old folk's home!
    • By recruiting, I mean members of a coaching staff are talking to, meeting with, giving tours, to students, and their guardians, that are not zoned for their school.    there’s no way that many non Bearden kids just showed up all at once without being recruited. It can’t be a coincidence that all those kids also went through the middle school all star game your boss puts on every year. 
    • Not sure how I would put it as recruiting perhaps kids trying to better their career by going to a head coach and coaching staff with connections all over college football that gets them the opportunity to go play college football and be coached by a coach with a pretty good track record.
