We just wrapped up our final showcase of the summer season! It was an incredible event, over 25 coaches came out to watch our girls play including Harvard, Yale, MIT, NYU, Amherst and Holy Cross to name a few!  We got great feedback and 5 or 6 girls got invites to camps/campus.

It’s time for us to gear up and get ready to do it all over again, which all starts with a tryout.  The next year is ultra important for our 28’s/29’s as coaches have been building their 2028 boards and will begin building their 2029 boards soon.

We are hosting a tryout to fill out our August 2026 —> August 2027 16U Showcase roster. Tryouts will be held on Sunday August 9 and Sunday August 16 from 2-6PM at Millbrook Rd Park in Raleigh, NC. We are considering all positions and are looking for athletes who want to compete in hopes to get on a collegiate roster.  

We have great relationships with college coaches, former collegiate athletes on our coaching staff, an amazing set of families who make the atmosphere impeccable, all steeped in faith. No one works harder than we do to help you get recruited. It’s not just softball, we help with the off the field coordination as well.

For the fall season, we will play 5 - 6 tournaments.  4 of which will be showcase in front of college coaches.  2 of those showcase will be local showcase, the other 2 will be out of state.  Costs are $1300 for the fall season, which we can easily break up into 4 installments to make it more manageable if you like.  We will try to do a few fundraisers to help offset the costs and are always looking for corporate donors who can greatly reduce our costs to zero as we are a 501c3!

We don't stop after the fall - all winter long, we do once a week indoor winter workouts together focused on hitting, glove work, strength and agility before picking up again outside in the Spring as we get ready for the best Summer showcase season of your life!  We're truly a year round program!

If you want to play in front of colleges including Harvard, Yale, NYU, and others, stop searching, go to nccrusaders.com and fill out a softball prospect form NOW! 

We’ll see you on August 9th & 16th from 2-6pm!
