How to watch without travelling

Games stream live on the club's YouTube channel and scores run live on GameChanger, so a coach who cannot get to a NorCal weekend can still watch an at-bat or follow an inning. Live stream on YouTube · Live scores on GameChanger. The stream appears on the Watch page the moment it starts.

Contacting this player

Under NCAA rules, Division I coaches may not contact a class-of-2030 softball recruit directly until 1 September 2028 — softball is a named exception to the usual June 15 date. Until then the head coach is the right contact and is glad to talk about any player on this roster: foothillgold2030.com/contact. More on the timeline: recruiting timeline.
