NSB Disclaimer

Important information about the nature and limitations of NSB scouting services, data reports, and evaluation results.

Last updated: April 2026

Please read this disclaimer carefully. By using any NSB service — including evaluations, combines, GameDays, Hit-a-Thon events, and the Verified Prospect Program — you acknowledge and agree to the terms described below.

No Guarantee of Placement or Selection

National Scouting Bureau (NSB) does not guarantee college placement, scholarship offers, or selection in any professional draft. NSB provides data, video, scout reports, and recruiting support — outcomes depend on many factors outside NSB's control, including athletic performance, academic eligibility, coach preferences, roster needs, and league rules.

Nothing in NSB marketing materials, service descriptions, or communications should be interpreted as a promise or guarantee of any specific recruiting outcome, scholarship amount, or draft selection.

Evaluation Scores Are Professional Opinions

Scout reports, evaluation scores, and player ratings generated by NSB represent the professional opinions of our scouts at the time of evaluation. They are based on observed performance during the session and reflect current assessment only — not a definitive measure of long-term athletic ability, potential, or future performance.

Scores and grades may differ between scouts, sessions, or environments. NSB evaluations are professional assessments intended to provide actionable data, not objective measurements of absolute ability.

  • Performance on evaluation day may not reflect an athlete's best or typical performance
  • Scout grading scales are professional tools, not scientific absolutes
  • NSB ratings do not predict or guarantee future performance at any level of play
  • Reports are point-in-time assessments — athletic ability and development change over time

Equipment-Dependent Data

NSB uses professional-grade measurement technology including FlightScope radar systems, Zybek electronic timing gates, and Stalker Pro II radar guns to generate objective performance data.

All data generated by this equipment is subject to the following limitations:

  • FlightScope: Exit velocity, launch angle, spin rate, and ball flight data may vary based on equipment calibration, environmental conditions (wind, temperature, humidity), and ball type. Results may differ between sessions or facilities.
  • Zybek Timing: Sprint times (60-yard dash and acceleration splits) reflect performance under controlled conditions. Timing may vary due to surface type, footwear, and reaction to the start signal. NSB times are electronically measured and are considered accurate within the equipment's rated tolerance.
  • Stalker Pro II: Pitching and throwing velocity readings are influenced by measurement distance, arm angle, trajectory, and environmental conditions. Readings may vary between sessions.

NSB makes no representation that data collected at one session will exactly replicate data collected at a different session, location, or time. Athletes should use NSB data as one data point among many when evaluating development progress.

No NCAA, MLB, or Institutional Affiliation

NSB is an independent scouting and player development organization. NSB is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or acting on behalf of:

  • The National Collegiate Athletic Association (NCAA) or any of its member institutions
  • Major League Baseball (MLB) or any MLB affiliate, team, or league
  • Any college or university program, unless explicitly stated in a specific written agreement
  • USA Baseball, Perfect Game, PBR, or any other scouting or recruiting organization

Coach outreach conducted by NSB (including through the Verified Prospect Program) represents independent advocacy on behalf of the athlete — not an official relationship with the contacted institution.

Past Results Do Not Guarantee Future Performance

NSB marketing materials reference a track record of over 600 athlete placements in college and professional baseball programs. This figure represents documented historical outcomes and is provided for informational purposes only.

Past results do not guarantee future performance. The number of historical placements does not indicate the probability of any individual athlete's placement, nor does it constitute a guarantee that NSB services will result in similar outcomes for any current or future client.

Individual results will vary based on the athlete's skill level, commitment, academic standing, graduation year, position availability, and market conditions at the time of recruiting.

Information Accuracy

NSB makes reasonable efforts to ensure the accuracy of all information provided through its services, website, and communications. However, NSB does not warrant that all information is error-free, current, or complete. Service descriptions, pricing, and availability are subject to change without notice.

If you believe any information provided by NSB is inaccurate or misleading, please contact us so we can address it promptly.
