MaxPreps and NFCA to Select High School Player of the Week

EL DORADO HILLS, Calif. --- MaxPreps and the National Fastpitch Coaches Association (NFCA) are teaming up in an effort to promote high school girls softball and highlight accomplishments of the nearly 380,000 student-athletes participating in the sport annually throughout the entire nation.

Fall 2018-2019 Winners

MaxPreps will serve as the official statistics and results provider for the NFCA's High School Player of the Week program. Each week during the fall season, the NFCA will choose one Player of the Week who had a great week in play to receive the award.

"MaxPreps is extremely proud to be affiliated with the National Fastpitch Coaches Association," said Andy Beal, President, MaxPreps. "The support the NFCA has shown the sport of softball is unmatched and their objectives and mission make them a perfect match for MaxPreps."

Based in Louisville, Kentucky, the NFCA will use results and statistics provided by MaxPreps to assist in its Player of the Week program and aid in the site's efforts to become America's resource for softball information.
