U.S. Colleges as well as Professional Clubs worldwide now have access to the Virtual Scout, the single most powerful online tool within the basketball community. Is The Virtual Scout similar to a scouting service? TVS is not a traditional scouting service but a global network of scouts and affiliates around the world that serves as your program's "eyes and ears" on every continent. The international services were uniquely developed to allow you to expand your recruiting overseas. In fact, TVS includes all of the scouting services features and much more. Why should I use The Virtual Scout? Well, rather than spend thousands of dollars on international travel costs - let the Virtual Scout evaluate talent on site in every country in the world for a fraction of the costs. NBA teams and colleges can no longer afford to ignore the international market. David Fredman, Asst. GM of the Denver Nuggets spoke passionately in a recent national story: "Foreign Players today come with an impressive resume of fundamentals of good coaching, surprising athleticism & years of experience playing professional basketball. They even play defense. In the U.S. young kids work on dunking the ball." Where does The Virtual Scout operate? TVS has offices, representatives, scouts and affiliates in more than 50 countries. At any given time, TVS subscribers may communicate with our international staff to learn more about any international basketball prospect. Why is The Virtual Scout more expensive than other scouting services? TVS is more powerful, more reliable and gets you to places nobody else can. Is The Virtual Scout worth the money? Absolutely! International basketball players are having a major impact on the NBA as well as college basketball. In a May 14, 2002 espn.com story Mike D'Antoni, former coach of the Denver Nuggets and current Head Coach of club Bennetton was quoted as saying, "Half the guys in the NBA couldn't play here anymore-the level of competition is that good." Just think about all the time, effort and money spent to pursue kids throughout the world. Imagine the costs involved with traveling the world to recruit international talent.
