Unlock your recruiting with Alex's Baseball-Specific Recruiting Platform Work with Alex and have a more reliable path to play college baseball:  Alex's Premier Athletes Recruiting Program What to Expect on the Visit Meeting with the Coaching Staff: This is typically the first stop. It's an informal introduction where the coaching staff will talk about their program's vision and where they see your son fitting in. Campus Tour: This isn't just about baseball. Your son is potentially choosing a home for the next few years. The tour will cover classrooms (where he'll spend a good chunk of his time), the cafeteria (essential for those growing athletes), and the dorms. Baseball Facilities: Expect a comprehensive tour of the baseball-specific facilities. This includes the locker room (a player's second home), the state-of-the-art weight room, and of course, the field where all the magic happens. Should Parents Come Along? Absolutely. Your perspective as a parent is invaluable. You'll have questions and observations that might not occur to a young athlete. Dress Code for the Athlete While there's no strict dress code, being presentable is key. A clean polo shirt or button-up with slacks or khakis and closed shoes is a good choice. It's a balance between casual and making a good first impression. Questions Your Athlete Should Consider Asking Academic Support: "How does the team support academic endeavors? Are there tutoring programs available for athletes?" Team Dynamics: "What's the team culture like? How do you handle conflicts or challenges within the team?" Training and Recovery: "What's the off-season training program like? How does the team handle injury prevention and recovery?" Future Opportunities: "How do you support players looking to play at the professional level or seeking opportunities post-college?"   Remember, this visit is as much about the college choosing your son as it is about him choosing the college. It's a two-way street. As always, I'm here to support you through every step of this exciting journey. Feel free to reach out if you have further questions or need more guidance.
