The Northeast Field Hockey High School College Showcase is a three-day event designed to give outstanding college-bound athletes the most convenient and best recruiting opportunity ever.
This Showcase will attract outstanding athletes from over 150 high schools throughout New York , Pennsylvania , Ohio , New Jersey and New England . All Division I, II and III colleges have been invited to this important event, which will help their college recruit the best athlete for their respective schools
Our approach will allow colleges to view all athletes by seeing their skills playing on grass and turf fields, using a 7 on 7 style of play. Included in this showcase will be an athletic combine approach to see the best athletes perform, they will show their speed, agility, ball handling skills as well as a shooting and goal keeping showcase. We will have one all-star game on Sunday. All selections will be determined by coaching staff ballots.
Division I, II & III college coaches will receive the 100+page Northeast Field Hockey Player Profile listing the name, street & email address, phone #, plus GPA, SAT scores, photo, and honors & awards of each player — together with an informational CD for the coach's program and college Admissions Office. In addition, each coach at the June Showcase will receive a DVD featuring the All-Star Final and the Shooting & Goal-Keeping Showcase.
Every game played will be filmed by Pat Orr Photography, an independent, professional sports video company. Players will have the opportunity to affordably acquire a video/DVD of all their games from which they can create an effective, personalized highlight video to send to coaches.
The Northeast Field Hockey High School College Showcase is highly aware of the importance for college coaches to maximize their recruitment time and budgets. That's why we’ve developed our unique Showcase to give coaches the greatest exposure to top players in the most concentrated period of time.
We also know how excited coaches are to discover that special player who might easily slip through the cracks in the traditional way of recruiting. We encourage all high school coaches to recommend not only players who've had the opportunities of top club team experience, but athletes who have proven their skill and potential outside such systems.
If you're a player who has the desire to achieve greatness, possesses the skill, desire and commitment to prove you're ready to make a mark at the college level — then The Northeast Field Hockey High School College Showcase was designed for you!
