Q&A
adidas Futures 2012 National Tournament:
Who? 32 adidas Futures Travel Ball All-Star coaches together will select up to 550 elite uncommitted/unsigned softball athletes from all over the country.
What? The adidas Futures National Tournament is a softball tournament of elite uncommitted/unsigned softball athletes ages 14-18. These athletes will be selected by each of the adidas Futures Travel Ball All-Star Coaches via one day tryouts.
When is the tournament? July 17-22, 2012
Where? Canyons Softball Complex in St. George, Utah
Why? There is a need for a better recruiting template. We feel the athletes and college coaches need a better arena for the recruiting process. The adidas Futures National Tournament will provide that arena by only allowing uncommitted/unsigned players to participate in the tournament.
How? The all-star coaches are selected from an on-line application process. Each coach will submit an application explaining as to why he/she is deserving of this position. Please see coach application tab on main page. These selected top all-star coaches will pick their top uncommitted/unsigned players that can be within their region and/or outside their region. An individual player that is uncommitted/unsigned may attend an open tryout being held by one of the adidas Futures coaches. Please “like” us on our facebook page www.facebook.com/adidasfutures for tryout information.
