no recommendation from coach

hi, i am passionate about a sport, but i couldn’t get a rec from my coach. will this look bad? thanks

not at all. they want recs from teachers rather than coaches.

a supplemental rec, not the primary one.

it’s fine. they don’t expect it

I honestly wouldn’t want my coach to write me a recommendation. He didn’t even go to college and curses everyday lol…
I would rather get one from an actual teacher. In fact, most colleges require your recommendation to come from a teacher that has taught you in 11th or 12th grade.

You don’t need a coach’s recommendation.
