hOW TO GET RECRUITED

​​

How do I get recruited?

​

​

The only way to get recruited is to get in front of the College Coaches, if they don't see you they can't recruit you.

​

If any of the following happens you are in trouble...

​

  • You Have Only a Few Questionnaires
    There are over 4,000 colleges across the nation. How many know about you? 

  • Somebody Says "If You are Good Enough, Colleges Will Find You"
    This is wrong. Your profile and skills video must be accessible 24/7 to all coaches and  send out directly to them on a monthly basis. (FYI - Coaches don't typically waste their time on sites offering only "free profiles" for student-athletes.)

  • You Think a Friend or Relative's "Connections" is all You Need
    As a result, a coach might send you a letter. But it is statistically unlikely that anything more will come of it.

  • Coaches Can't Get your Stats and / or Video
    The reality is that you must have updated, accurate stats to get recruited.

  • Your List of College Choices is too Narrow
    The chances are not good of you fitting only a few specific coaches' needs. For this reason, extending your options is a much better plan.

  • You Assume Walking-on is a Good Option
    It's not. Colleges love for you to walk-on because you will be paying to attend that school. You cost a coach nothing. And you start at the very bottom of the depth chart. Every year, another group of scholarship athletes jump ahead of you.

Two Common Recruiting Mistakes

​

  • Waiting too long - The earlier an athlete is in the process, the more opportunities he or she will have. As time passes, so do opportunities to be evaluated and recruited.

  • Not taking action - If a student-athlete wants to play at the college level, he or she must work for opportunities. Only taking calculated steps can produce scholarship offers.
