Hi,
I’m a center back (2021’) and am wondering if anyone has experience with recruiting/getting exposure. I want to play in college and have some interest from a couple of schools, but am looking for ways to get on more coaches’ lists. Any advice?
Depending on skill level, Div 1 to Div 3 the exposure levels are different. D1 will scout players based on area scouts, club team coaches and area contacts, tournaments, summer leagues ect…D3 recruiting funds are minimal. My advice would be to find schools you’d be happy at if you blew out your knee and never played again. Reach out to the coaching staff, send film, attend recruit camps. Good luck
Send coaches a highlight video with an introductory email which hits your strong points – grades, any accolades, where you play etc. And have full game video ready if any request it. At this point D1 is mostly done, so it would make sense to focus on d3 schools.
I am assuming you are talking about soccer recruiting. If you give an idea of the schools you are interested in, perhaps I or another poster here can shed some light. Good luck!
