Recruitment Planning Program more>
Dear Worldwide Baseball Prospects,If we had a way to share this letter with every single family of a young baseball player we would. When we began this journey toward college baseball planning we had no idea what to do. After hearing horror stories from other parents about programs they had signed up for, often times spending thousands of dollars and in reality receiving no legitimate help, we were skeptical to say the least.
We signed up with Worldwide Baseball Prospects after discovering your web page while searching for options. To be honest, our thought at the time was that if WBP could accomplish just a portion of the services you advertised it would be worth the time and money. Boy, have we been surprised! We had no idea of the value, opportunities, friendships, knowledge and exposure that we would experience and benefit from in such a short time. Looking back, it was the best money we have ever spent on behalf of our son’s baseball career. Our expectations have been exceeded time and time again. Your program is a walk-off grand slam in our book!
The personal attention, knowledge, quality and availability of the staff are amazing. The opportunities that WBP has opened up for Taylor border on surreal. But most important is the sincere interest you and your entire network of baseball people have taken in helping us achieve our goals as a family, and Taylor as a young man and ball player. You are number one in our book and our hearts. We have enjoyed the association with you and WBP so far and sincerely look forward to our continued relationship and most importantly your friendship and guidance as our journey continues. WBP is the best “Bang for the Buck” program available. You are the best, we can only guess at how happy the Baseball Gods are with you.
Thank you again, Worldwide Baseball Prospects is an organization dedicated to providing young athletes with the tools that they need to be successful in life and sports. As a Coach / Mentor with Worldwide Baseball Prospects, I am looking forward to sharing my knowledge and experiences with the players of WBP to help guide them through their quest for athletic development. Not only can I teach athletes, but I believe that each athlete that I work with teaches me something new about how I can better serve them. With assistance from all of the WBP mentors, the player can become a well-rounded person, student, and athlete. Success comes from hard work and opportunity.

My name is Dustin and I am now a college baseball player. Words cannot describe how much WBP has helped me get to the college level. Not only has WBP gotten me to the college level he has helped me in so many different aspects of being an athlete and a person, from learning what to look for in a college to how not to get down on myself. When I first started working out with WBP I was 15 5'9 160 pounds, I am now 19 6'0 195. WBP has been helping me for 5 years, since I was in grade 9, and the things they have done to help me are astronomical. When I first signed up for Worldwide baseball prospects, I wasn't really sure what I was going to get out it, maybe nothing more than someone to help me find a college. But man was I wrong; WBP has helped me so much as a person. When I was down about finding a college WBP always had supportive words and helped me see the whole picture. They have helped me as a student athlete trying to get to college in so many ways; from talking with me about where I would like to go to how to contact a coach and what are some questions that I need to ask. WBP is always networking and meeting different people they have pointed me to many excellent resources and camps. As a player I cannot thank him enough for what they have done for me. Strength-wise WBP has helped me immeasurable amounts, when I was first with WBP I weighed in at 160, I now weigh 194 and a lot of it is thanks to WBP. They have taught me so much about nutrition, what type and when to take protein. WBP has shown me and helped me understand when in the year I want to be doing low reps high weight and when to be doing high reps low weight. From strictly an athletic perspective two things that I will keep with me for the years to come are nutrition and what I have learned about how to work out, from regimens to different exercises to do. On the field WBP has helped me develop from a single ``A`` player to a college player. WBP recommended one camp down in Florida, and it was all WBP promised and more. They have helped me over come huge adversity, when I was having mental problems throwing the baseball. Not only have they helped me set different goals throughout this whole journey but they have helped me accomplish them too, such as going to college. Worldwide baseball prospects has amazing baseball knowledge and their ability to network is tops bar none. If you want to get some catching instruction, they know someone you can network with. They helped me with a plan and a route which is extremely specific and they kept me on that track. WBP has an uncanny ability to keep you motivated and inspired. I remember one time when WBP called and we talked after that talk I went to the gym, before that talk I wasn't planning on going to the gym that day. They also always have little stories either about them or about other baseball players that they tell and they always keep me hungry to work hard. I would easily recommend WBP to other players and families. I feel that even a player who has signed a full ride to a school; he can still use and learn a lot from WBP that would make them a better athlete and person.
Thanks WBP, Dustin

"I have been playing, coaching and teaching this great game for over 27 years and love to encourage and motivate players to reach for their potential. As a coach I always try to surround myself with others that have the same passion for baseball that I do. I have been associated with WBP now for over a year and can honestly say that the staff at WBP has a passion for this game that goes beyond just the game. They care for every player as if they were family the same way I treat everyone of my clients. The staff never fails to amaze me in the care and attention they give there clients. I always know that if I need something or even if one of my clients needs something they will be there with help and encouragement. I firmly believe that if a players goal is to reach the next level they must work hard and persevere but they must also have a plan, WBP has been and always will be there to help any player that wants to get there."
Thanks WBP for having the passion. Brian Niswender MA, CSCS

Feb 16, 2009I began working with Worldwide Baseball Prospects during the fall of my son’s sophomore year. Over the past 18 months, we have realized significant value, some of which I have listed below:
1) Keeping perspective of what is important for my son, as he balances his education with his sport.
2) Providing an intelligence center for resources helpful to developing my son’s skill set to make him a more valuable team member in the classroom and on the ball field.
3) Sparking creative interaction through regular communication, challenges, and dialogue.
I would recommend the services of the Worldwide Baseball Prospects program to any family looking to inspire and assist the student toward their dream of playing baseball throughout their high school seasons and beyond.

"I wanted to let you know how impressed I am with your website, Worldwide Baseball Prospects, but more importantly, your commitment to all of student-athletes you assist.
During my 19 year career as a NCAA collegiate coach, I have come across numerous websites and people who say they have the student's interests at heart, but no one I know has the knowledge and passion that you put forth to each one of the young men that you work with.
Your advice to parents and the players is straight forward and truthful. I truly believe that your insights to the recruiting process give each family the knowledge to pursue the correct path for success.
Equally impressive to me are your motivational techniques that you use when communicating your points to your clients. I have had the opportunity to speak and work with some of your current players and all of them are taking your advice to heart. They are genuinely excited about undertaking the path you have set out for them. Plus, they understand the process and how to navigate the sometimes confusing recruiting cycle.
I look forward to continuing our relationship to help student-athletes and their parents obtain their goals in baseball and in school."
Yours in baseball,

My Name is Louis Coppo. I will be attending and playing baseball at Cal Lutheran University. I wanted to write and tell others about WBP and how it was able to help us as a family and player. The relationship we have had over the last few years has been great. The web-site has so much information for both parents and I. WBP gave me great direction on how to move forward and how to handle the process of playing ball in college. WBP always checked in and had my best interest at heart. He talked with me on many areas of my life. WBP made sure to remind me about what was important. Many of the things we would talk about confirmed what my parents had told me, but the things we didn't know came in handy. How to work out, diet and how to handle the pressure of school and ball. He always reminded me how important school was. It just wasn't about baseball, but everything in my life. My parents and I highly recommend WBP.
WBP made me feel like I was the only one he was working with. He made sure that I was good to go and always had time to talk. All I needed to do was e-mail him and I had a call from him right away. Thanks WBP for all your help.
Best regards, Louis

WBP is by far the best investment we have made to help our son get to the right college for him. WBP helped our son learn how to find and connect with the right colleges, and then helped him develop a personal plan to achieve his athletic and scholastic goals. WBP has a ton of resources and a fantastic network of baseball professionals who were ready to help our son with any concern he had about college or ball. A great resource for high school athletes looking to play ball and get an education at a good college!
Thanks,
Rick

We are so happy to be working Worldwide Baseball Prospects. He started us out with “The Guide to College Baseball.” This book is the best source of information for college recruitment. WBP’s love for the game is evident in his ability to share information with student athletes. He maintains contact with our family to make sure we are on track. He has contacts in the business that can assess player skills, offer college planning advice and help with financial aid. He also knows what it takes to keep your players’ name in front of the coaches. Most important, he is a mentor to our son. Travis listens and heeds WBP’s advice regarding college baseball preparation.
"We are extremely pleased!"
Sincerely,
Sterlyn, Janie and Travis

I wish there were more people like you in this world. It is a pleasure to see a person concerned with helping others succeed, without looking at what is it for themselves. To see a person concerned with helping young baseball players reach there full potential is a blessing. If I ever get the opportunity to pick my own coaching staff it would be a privilege to have you on board.
Thanks,

Our experience with Worldwide Baseball Prospect s has been a very positive one. The assistance we have received, and information we have been provided has gone far beyond our expectations. The initial cost of membership was returned many times over, in just the value of the “Guide to College Baseball”. On top of that, there has been the ongoing dialog with WBP. They have provided a priceless education to our son and to my wife and I.
Their calls have been strategically made to provide ongoing motivation and guidance in the process. WBP appears to be totally devoted to the players best interest and not in a money making endeavor.
Like all parents, we want the very best for our children, and with the assistance and guidance of WBP we feel our son now has the resources he needs to promote his baseball skills to the college’s on his list. He is well on his way to mastering the recruiting process. We would recommend WBP to any family who is fortunate enough to have a son with the talents required to go beyond high school baseball.
Thank you WBP, you have made a difference!!

We would like to take this opportunity to thank you for all the guidance, knowledge and support you and everyone at Worldwide Baseball Prospects have offered us. When we began this journey we had no idea what would be involved in the college search proccess, needless to say, we were overwelmed. When I registered with WBP, I had no idea that we had simply stumbled upon all the information and resources we would need to be able to make an informed and educated decision on a great post secondary school for our son both academically and athletically.
What I found most impressive was the personal touch you gave us along with the constant follow up!"
"My wife Angela and I would like to now share some great news with you. Our son Adam has just been offered a scholarship to a fantastic College ( John A. Logan ) in Southern Illinois. As Canadians, going through this for the first time and not having access to very much information it would have been virtually impossible for us to gather the information we needed.
Thank you very much, Sandro, Angela and Adam
Worldwide Baseball Prospects has been instrumental in helping our son focus his efforts to find a college baseball placement. The website is packed with vital information and helpful contacts for anyone wanting to manage the process of being or getting recruited. WBP helps players to assess their abilities and then to target programs that match their abilities and their interests. Everyone we have contacted through the website, whether professional scout or college admissions couselor, has been friendly and helpful. If we are feeling confused or have questions, WBP is always there to lend his perspective and he does so with a smile.
Worldwide Baseball Prospects offers incredible service at a great price.

What drew me to be involved with the WBP was their dedication to being personally involved in not only assisting these young men to maximize their potential to play the great game of baseball beyond their high school years, but more importantly, they focus intensely on helping them get a quality education and develop the character that will prepare them, to one day, be great players in the game of life.

It is good to see that there is a company out there that is more concerned with the individual player as opposed to just making a buck. I have seen more money making scams than I care to see in this business. After getting to know you, it is the sincereity of you helping kids reach their dreams in this wonderful game that truly stands out. The fact that such a helpful product at an affordable price coupled with your energy level and the desire to see WBP succeed by knowing that WBP will only succeed if the player/client succeeds creates a "win-win" situation for everyone involved. Any way I can be of service to WBP and its clientele would be my pleasure becasue nothing is better in this game than to see players reach their goals. Sincerely,

At AdmissionsConsultants we are pleased to have an association with an organization devoted to developing the talents of young people who are aiming to balance athletics and academics. What we like most about Worldwide Baseball Prospects is that it ably guides a range of students, from those who indeed may one day be pro material to – more importantly – those who are striving to use their baseball talent to make higher education a reality in their lives.

We are thrilled to be apart of the Worldwide Baseball Prospects philosophy to college baseball preparation and planning for families!They are very concerned about providing high school baseball players and families with realistic information to the college baseball recruiting process that they can trust. Their logical approach just makes sense!" "We feel that we can provide a very valuable key element in the early preparation stages of the college search"We will be using our resources of creditable professional Scouts and Coaches such as Les Lancaster, Kash Beauchamp and many more around North America and abroad. This is something that if done early enough with players and the parents one-on-one, it will provide a logical but realistic assessment of just where the player stands in the vast baseball talent pool." The key here is, how far does the player now have to go to reach an attainable developmental goal? This is a benefit to parents as they will now be able to forecast their family budgets and plan ahead financially targeting their spending habits."
