What is Collegiate Softball Connection?

CSC works with high school softball players and college softball teams all over the U.S. and Canada. Collegiate Softball Connection is run by noted recruiting expert, Catharine Aradi. Through her book, columns, clinics and CSC, she has helped thousands of softball players successfully "make the cut" at the college level! Her primary purpose is to guide college prospects and their families through the college search process helping them explore their many collegiate options. CSC "alumni" are playing at all levels of collegiate competition, including many who are currently at Top 20 Div. I, II, III or NAIA programs (scroll down to see 2008 and 2007 commitments). CSC's secondary purpose is to enable college coaches to broaden their recruiting base by providing them with information on great prospects from all over the country.

CSC will be helpful to any serious ball player who wants guidance through the college search process. Athletes are encouraged to sign up during their junior year in high school juniors or as a JC freshman; however, players may join any time up until the middle of their senior year. Collegiate recruiting is very, very competitive, but if you know how to identify your personal "target zone," and how to aggressively market your skills and experience, you'll have the competitive edge that makes you the prospect college coaches want to recruit! By choosing to have CSC be a partner in your college search, you will have all the resources you need to guarantee you find the college and team that are right for you!
