ABOUT.
Who We Are
14forty Scouting was built on a simple belief — every minute counts. With 1,440 minutes in a day, we dedicate ours to evaluating high school basketball talent. Our mission is to provide college coaches with clear, unbiased player evaluations they can trust.
What We Do
- Player Evaluations – In-gym, courtside evaluations that capture performance, skill development, and potential.
- Comprehensive Database – Every evaluation is entered into our system, giving coaches an organized, searchable platform of player reports.
- Monthly Reports – Subscriptions that deliver detailed evaluations directly to college coaches, complete with notes, measurables, and film when available.
Our Network
The power of 14forty comes from our nationwide network of dedicated scouts. From local high school gyms to major tournaments, our team is on the ground documenting real performance. Each scout follows our evaluation standards, ensuring consistency, accuracy, and fairness in every report.
