Frequently asked questions
Questions families actually ask.

What is RosterFit?
RosterFit Baseball is a college baseball recruiting research service for families. You send your athlete's profile, we research 1,500+ college programs against it, and you get back 20–30 realistic target schools with the reasoning behind each one. The name is the idea: roster fit is whether a program actually has an opening at your athlete's position in their graduation year, which is the question most recruiting advice skips entirely. A coach can like a player and still have three returning players in front of him.
What information do I need to provide?
Your athlete's position(s), graduation year, state, high school and club team, GPA, and any stats or metrics you have (velocity, exit velocity, 60-yard dash time, etc.). You'll also tell us what your biggest recruiting question is, which shapes how we frame the report.
Where does the fit judgment come from? What data are you using?
Our own, not a public directory. We hold verified high school profiles for 30,000+ players currently on college rosters across 1,000+ programs, season by season rather than just their senior year: the metrics, the position and the academic profile each of them had at your athlete's stage, before anyone recruited them. Your athlete is measured against the players each program has already taken, which is what lets a report say a school is a realistic target or a reach instead of just listing it. A person then reads the finished report before it is sent.
How is this different from a recruiting platform like NCSA or Perfect Game?
Recruiting platforms give you a profile page and a list of coaches to email. RosterFit Baseball gives you a researched strategy: we analyze which specific programs have roster openings at your player's position, cross-reference that with their metrics and academics, and tell you exactly how to approach each coach. It's research, not a directory.
We care as much about academics as athletics. Does RosterFit account for that?
Yes, and this is one of the more important things to tell us upfront. A lot of families, especially in academically competitive regions, are using baseball as a lever to access a stronger school than their student's GPA or test scores alone would allow. That's a completely legitimate strategy, and we build for it explicitly. Your report will include D3 programs at highly selective schools where baseball has historically been an admission lever, D2 programs with strong academic profiles in your athlete's area of interest, and notes on which D1 programs have meaningful athletic admission advantages. Division level is not our only axis, since academic outcome is part of the map too.
What division levels do you cover?
All of them: D1, D2, D3, NAIA, and JUCO. We don't just match by division level, though. A Low-Major D1 program recruits very differently than a Power conference school, and a NESCAC D3 program can be harder to get into academically than most D1s. Your report identifies the specific programs and competitive tiers where your athlete's profile is genuinely competitive, across all levels.
My athlete hasn't been clocked at a showcase yet. Can you still help?
Yes. Velocity and stats are helpful but not everything. We also look at positional profile, athleticism indicators, academic strength, and geographic fit. The less objective data you have, the more the camp guidance section of the report becomes important. We'll tell you exactly where to go to get seen.
Does this guarantee my athlete will get recruited?
No, and any service that claims otherwise isn't being straight with you. RosterFit Baseball gives you a targeted strategy that significantly improves your odds of reaching the right coaches. What you do with that strategy is up to your family and your athlete. We make no guarantees about scholarships, roster spots, admissions decisions, or coaching responses.
How long does the report take?
Most reports delivered within 1 business day of submission. Every report goes through a human review before delivery. We don't send anything we haven't looked at.
What if my player's situation changes after we order?
Contact us. If your player transfers schools, changes positions, or gets new metrics before we deliver the report, we'll incorporate that. After delivery, tell us within 14 days if something in the report is wrong and we'll fix it.
What's the catch?
No catch, and no subscription. You pay $49 once and get one report built around your athlete's actual profile. We don't upsell you into a monthly plan, we don't sell your information, and we don't charge you again. If the report gets something wrong, tell us within 14 days and we'll fix it or refund you.
Know which programs fit, athletically and academically, before you spend another dollar.
Serious baseball families don't guess. They research roster openings, academic fit, and realistic competitive levels before booking a single camp or sending a single email. That's exactly what RosterFit gives you, and it's the step that should come before everything else.
Three real programs: one D1, one D2, one D3. No card. Usually ready in 10 to 20 minutes.
