Field Hockey Showcase

Yellow pinny for showcase event - #3

Red pinny for All-Star game - #6

My oldest daughter attended the New England Premier Field Hockey College Recruiting Showcase, held in Exeter, NH, this past weekend. The weather was beautiful on Saturday but rainy, windy and cold on Sunday. Generally speaking the girls didn’t appear phased by the conditions and performed well.

The two day showcase ended with an All-Star game. All-Star selections were determined by staff ballots for each game played over the two day showcase. Of course I’m biased when it come to each of my three kids, so I wasn’t surprise to hear them call “Stephanie Frye” as one of the All-Star players – red team, #6. Obviously, being selected for the All-Star game is an indication of how well Stephanie did during the event. Hopefully, we'll be able to leverage this moving forward with college just around the corner.

The New England Premier Field Hockey College Recruiting Showcase is a unique arena for the best high school field hockey players to demonstrate their talent and decision-making skills in game situations — and for college coaches from around the country to conveniently and thoroughly assess their potential. This event is totted as, “the BEST recruiting opportunity for top players”.
