Prep Dig adds Michelle Bamford as Business Relationship Manager

Please allow me to use this article as an opportunity to introduce myself to those who may not be familiar with me, and extend my gratitude to those who are. I am honored to serve as the Relationship Manager at PrepDig, committed to nurturing positive connections with players, coaches, and parents. My goal is to ensure maximum exposure for athletes through various channels such as articles, social media content, and PrepDig Events.

You may have seen me at tournaments, identifiable by my curly hair and a PrepDig shirt, diligently navigating through numerous courts. During these events, my mission is twofold: to highlight talented athletes in written pieces and engage in discussions with college coaches to discern what they're seeking. While I do enjoy analyzing players, what truly excites me is amplifying the athletes' voices in my work. I often collaborate directly with athletes, inviting them to share their stories.

In the spirit of transparency, I want to emphasize that I share any published content about an athlete directly with them, completely free of charge. Witnessing exorbitant fees charged by some services in the industry for athlete exposure, I am steadfast in my belief that athletes deserve this exposure without heavy financial barriers. Hence, there is absolutely no cost involved for any exposure I provide to athletes.

During tournaments, I seize the opportunity to capture content for our social media page, PrepDigCa. This platform serves as a welcoming space for segments such as Prospects to Watch, Dedicated Athletes, and Remix posts. From top players like Charlie Fuerbringer Charlie Fuerbringer 5'11" | S Mira Costa | 2024 State #2 Nation CA , Fallyn Blotzer Fallyn Blotzer 6'1" | OH Corona Santiago | 2025 State #27 Nation CA , Layli Ostovar Layli Ostovar 5'11" | OH Mater Dei | 2026 State #9 Nation CA , Lucky Fasavalu Lucky Fasavalu 5'8" | S Sierra Canyon | 2027 State #58 Nation CA , and Kylee-Jo (JoJo) Wilson Kylee-Jo (JoJo) Wilson 6'0" | OH Cathedral Catholic | 2027 State #27 Nation CA to emerging talents, we showcase a diverse range of athletes. Our spotlight extends to achievements from esteemed clubs like Wave, SCVC, Coast, Forza 1 North, and the Vegas Aces Volleyball Club, as well as those in their inaugural year of operation. Our page provides a community for promoting athletes aiming for the next level, the clubs supporting their journey, and the college programs offering education and growth opportunities.

We recently hosted our inaugural contest, generously sponsored by Candified, who awarded a team bonding party to the winners from City Volleyball Club  - 14 Gold. Their winning entry, featured below, promises an exciting team bonding experience we're eager to share on our platform.

Last year marked a milestone as we hosted our inaugural PrepDig Expo at Mizuno Long Beach. The overwhelming response from attendees left one resounding question: "When is the next one?" This query fueled my determination to integrate my vision into PrepDig's corporate framework. As an organization renowned for its successful tournaments and showcases across the Midwest, and PrepNetwork being a premier tournament operator, expanding our footprint to the West Coast seemed like the next logical step.

After engaging in extensive discussions and presenting my ambitious ideas to the Prep Network, I've embarked on a new chapter. With 22 years dedicated to helping newborn babies find loving homes through adoption, I'm thrilled to transition into a role where I guide athletes along their volleyball journey through our events at PrepDig. This career shift allows me to devote all my time and energy to bringing you more exciting PrepDig events. If your high school or club is interested in hosting, please don't hesitate to reach out to me at Michelle@PrepDig.com.

PrepDig has provided me with the incredible opportunity to connect with numerous remarkable athletes, parents, coaches, and industry professionals as I navigate the circuit—an experience that fills me with profound gratitude. If we haven't had the chance to meet yet, I extend a warm invitation for you to introduce yourself. And if our paths have crossed before, please don't hesitate to share your feedback with PrepNetwork.

I'm eagerly looking forward to our next encounter at the upcoming event.

All the best on and off the court, Michelle 🏐❤️‍🔥
