About Us

Above:  NSR scouts from across America gather in Birmingham, Alabama at the company's annual meeting in August 2009.   Licensees and scouts meet  to learn about new client features and benefits as well as to discuss the latest recruiting rules and procedures.  NSR has a 90%-plus success rate in getting client-prospects college offers. 

An unmatched reputation:  National Scouting Report (NSR) is the most revered high school scouting and college recruiting organization in the world.  For 30 years, since 1980, college coaches have depended on NSR to present them with quality prospects to evaluate and recruit.  As an NSR prospect, you can rely on our company of professionals to effectively promote you and to make your profile and video available to every college coach in America in your sport.  Here are some other key points you should know about NSR:

  • We scout, sponsor and attend national and regional showcases, tournaments, combines and evaluation camps across America in all sports every week of the year

  • Working to find and enroll quality prospects
  • Communicating with college coaches about the kids we represent
  • Educating organizations, parents and prospects about the recruiting process
  • Gaining credibility with local high school, club and college coaches 

 

Our competition?  Most have their "scouts" or "counselors" sit in cubicles where they call one prospect after another, day after day, from roster lists of tournaments they did not attend.  They rarely surface to actually scout events and prospects.  What does that tell you?  Saying you know sports and can evaluate tape is a far cry from knowing you personally, having firsthand knowledge of your skill sets and your character.  It's all an indicator of one thing: NSR is the real deal. 

Make your dreams come true:  Please ask yourself these simple questions:  

  • Am I getting the attention from college coaches which I deserve?
  • Do I have a support system which is constantly working (24/7) on my behalf to inform college coaches about me?
  • Is it smart to wait any longer to find out what my options are?
  • If my future depends on the effectiveness a scouting service, which one truly has the experience, technological advances, extensive letters of recommendation, variety of benefits and proven outcomes to best help me (or my kid) to be recognized, evaluated and recruited by the most college coaches? 
  • What do I have to lose by contacting the world's top scouting organization about my future?
