General Info – College Showcase: U16 to U19 Teams



 



Teams and Players

The Hempfield Fall Classic College Showcase portion of the tournament will be held on both Saturday and Sunday of the girls and boys weekends and will be available to all teams accepted to the U16-U19 ages in all divisions.

We directly invite over 400 colleges and their coaches from the region to come and observe these older players.

Player Profiles will be available to all college coaches. 

Team players

Once accepted to the tournament players should begin to contact colleges they are interested in to let them know they will attend the Hempfield Fall Classic.  This generates more interest from the college coaches to attend the event.

  • Weekend Tournament Schedules will be posted on or around Oct 31 for Girls Teams and Nov 7 for Boys Teams, and we suggest you share the link to the schedules web page with college coaches between Nov 4 and Nov 6 for girls and Nov 11 and 13 for boys. Send your schedule to any school you are interested in by letting them know you will be playing at the Hempfield Fall Classic and providing them with a link to your schedule. 
    1. Registered College Coaches to date will be posted on Oct 25 (Note: invitations to coaches will go out mid-Sept and please understand that many coaches tend not to register until immediately prior to the event).

      Note: We ask the college coaches to register in GotSport  Please be sure to contact colleges you are interested in attending if they do not appear in the lists.  This is what then drives them to attend. Remember, not all coaches will register to attend so do not only send information to coaches that have registered, as some coaches prefer to attend without registering.  Contact them directly to invite them to your games!

Remember, not all coaches will register to attend. In recent years many teams provide VEO or similar game videos to coaches and their attendance is not as crucial as in years past.  So do not only send information to coaches that have registered, send your info, and that you will be playing here to any schools you are interested in attending.  Note also, some coaches prefer to attend without registering.  Or, MANY will also register immediately prior to the dates of the tournament as their school season is still in session.
Contact them directly to invite them to your games!
