Dave Johnson<\/a>, NSR scout in North Central Florida is back at it again. In 2005, after a National Scouting Report National Meeting, Dave Johnson decided to go back to his territory and begin a showcase. Dave went to talk with Chuck Baylor at Daytona State College. Chuck was the softball coach at the time, he retired later that year. He received permission to use the Daytona State<\/a> facilities for the showcase. The then new softball coach, Sabrina Manhart, jumped on board. She and her team work the on field part of the showcase. She and Dave “Work like clockwork after all these years.”
\nDave Johnson holds this tournament each year, the Sunday after Labor Day to avoid the holiday. This timing also works as it does not effect SATs or ACTs that are held on Saturdays around this time. In addition, this timing avoids Junior College (Juco) scrimmages and the start of fall travel teams, that usually begin on Saturdays. As with most things in life, timing is EVERYTHING.
\nSoftball College Coaches from the region come in to evaluate the girls. \u00a0The athletes will be graded on skills by position. \u00a0These athletes get a great evaluation. To insure a thorough evaluation, Dave limits the showcase to about 70 girls. Dave is not willing to sacrifice the quality of the showcase for numbers. Because of this fact, there is usually a waiting list of girls trying to get in this showcase.
\nAt the conclusion of the showcase, Dave collects all the evaluation or grade books and collates the scores on these athletes. He gets ALL of this valuable information back to the athlete. He then has National Scouting Report post these results on their website and then sends the results to Florida colleges. Dave Johnson puts a great deal of work into this first class showcase. All in attendance enjoy the benefits of his labor. Way to run a great showcase Dave.
\nWhy does Dave Johnson go this extra mile to run this showcase? Because Dave Johnson loves “Changing Kid’s Lives!” If you would like to attend the National Scouting Report @ Daytona State College Individual Softball Showcase, sign up now<\/a>. \u00a0This event will be Sunday, September 7, 2014 from 9 AM TO 1 PM at the DSC Softball Field. \u00a0We know there will be a waiting list as usual, so sign up quickly.<\/p>\n
