Prep Dig Ready To Roll With Top 250 Lineup
Prep Dig will be kicking off their third season of Top 250 Expos across the Midwest. What is a Top 250? Prep Dig ranks roughly around 250 players in each state. In the majority of states nationwide, there are roughly 250 players capable of playing at the collegiate level – from high major Division 1 to NCAA Division 3, NAIA, JUCO, and everything in between. The event is a showcase that is open to any athlete looking to play at the next level and any coach to evaluate as their division rules permit.
Registration is live with locations in Milwaukee, Des Moines, Omaha, and Detroit Area. Athletes will receive a welcome tweet from our Prep Dig accounts and their names will be sent to the list of college coaches who RSVP to our event!
Here is a typical run of show:
- Introduction
- Warm-Up
- Stations (Various games of queens, split court, testing)
- Positional breakdown
- Position combinations (setters work with hitters, incorporate defensive players)
- 6 on 6 free ball, wash drills, competition
- Cool down/recruiting questions
- Closing remarks
What Adjustments Have Been Made For 2020?
More Court Support
We will have more coaches that are able to give feedback and assist in allowing athletes to showcase their skills. From wash drills, 6 on 6 competition, and skill breakdown, having more coaches to assist in the overall flow of the event will make everything much more efficient.
Wash Drills, 6 on 6 Play
The more reps and the more playing, the more coaches will get to see. By having more gamelike situations, coaches can see how athletes adapt in various scenarios. Showcases strengths as well as potential and how they can potentially impact a program at the next level.
Video Streaming
Coaches are operating under various rules based on their division and institutions. We will be using BallerTV as a streaming service or we will be using the streaming provided by the host facility. Athletes will be able to be evaluated from coaches across the country. We will provide a list of coaches who will have filled out the the College RSVP to give the athletes a heads up on who will be watching either from a screen or courtside.
CMM Productions – Volleyball Recruiting Videos will be back and highlight videos will be available for purchase as well. There is a 14 day turn around on these videos where athletes can expect a 90 second highlight video from the event. Athletes can sign up through our registration page. Following the event, they will receive a highlight video to send to coaches to start their recruiting journey for the 2021 club season.
