People can expect that Faster to First will test and showcase the nation's top fastpitch athletes with their new athlete showcase event series that features a deeper athlete analysis and state of the art technology.  
 
The series features world class testing, development and a creative showcase platform that digs deep into an athlete's physical ability, skill and decision making. 
 
Faster2First met with several college coaches who expressed their hope that an objective third party group, with no bias or direct interest in club teams, tournaments or leagues, would test the nation's college softball prospects and obtain new and relevant athlete data that can help coaches narrow down their recruiting lists. 
 
Most of all, we believe our world class coaches, featuring Rob Crews and former college coach Theresa Wilson, can lead our programming with a supporting cast that can eventually scale our event platform to 15,000 -- 20,000 athletes annually. For our first event, we signed five sponsors and they are all encouraging us to run fast on this national softball build out.     
 
Our team has built the US Army Bowl on NBC, the McDonald's All-American Game on ESPN and the Afflack All-American Baseball game -- the nation's biggest showcase events. We will do the same in softball with several blue chip sponsors.
