Where can you see which players were already selected?

My kid was selected and we attended. The top 50 kids were really good, lots of talent, but the back 50, they were not very good. Teams were all over the place as they were randomly assigned. Girls from clubs that never played against a top 50 ranked club before.
Part of the problem was, they wouldn't take more than 5 kids from the same club, which in reality, you could have 15 deserving kids on a top-20 club team be better than the best player on a 100th ranked team. To their credit, they wanted to diversify the selections regionally.
Not true at all. M&D and Skywalkers each had double digit kids at both age groups.

I would look at what top 2026 lcoal players attended and try to follow in their footsteps. If you know of any parents whose kids were recruited to a school that your child is interested in, find out what they did. First-hand advice and experience in this area is invaluable.

My 2026 daughter has an excellent highlight video for her freshman summer. She did not play a lot in high school so we did not have games from that like other girls did. she had over 150 hits on her UA 150 games in her sports recruit account. I just wish she would've practiced more for the Parisi combine. The D1 coaches often go back and watch all these games even if they're not in attendance, especially if you send them a highlight video and the link in the email.

Although this is true, the issue with UA150 is/was is got watered down and I can tell you there were kids who did not belong there last year. I think them opening up registration dates is a sign there are trying to be more selective to get higher end talent.
They also added a third age group this coming summer. All about the $$$. My DD did it two years ago, and good grief was the talent all over the place. Heard it was just as bad this past summer.

No differenct than any other combine. 4 or 5 events.
5-10-5 shuttle
200 yard shuttle
broad jump
vertical jump
4LB Medball toss
40 yard dash
UA's combine is a little different in that they don't make your hand touch the ground in the shuttles, which is different that most other combines which girls may train for.
My daughter was accepted but we passed on it. Too many of these have popped up over the last couple years. Many are watered down compared to past years.

My 2026 player has great game film to make her first highlight tape from this event. She did not get very much playtime as a freshman in high school, so the game film from this event was 15 invaluable as we were starting the recruiting process. Coaches will go back and watch game film from this event. Make sure your athlete starts working on the skills required for the Parisi combine to score high. We did not do that, but other players did, and it made a huge difference for those who had been working on some of those skills prior to the combine.
