Football Recruiting Services
You are a high school football player who
practices and works out year around to improve your
game. You spend about six hours in the classroom per
day and another two hours doing homework after
football practice during the school year. You may
have a personal trainer and go to camps/combines in
the summer. Where is the time and energy going to
come from when it comes to the recruiting process?
You do know that you have to be pro-active making
phone calls, sending e-mails, sending out player
profiles and DVD's. OMG!
Sit down and develop a game plan with your coach
and your parents. Form your very own dream of
recruiting personal. Your coach can write a letter
of recommendation and furnish you with game tape.
You can hire someone to edit your promo DVD and
make several copies for mail out. Your parent or
parents can be there to encourage you, get you
registered with the Clearinghouse and research
colleges, coaches, e-mails, etc. Your personal
trainer can give you tips and write a letter of
recommendation as well. Your school counselor can
keep you posted on SAT testing dates and help keep
you on track with core class requirements. Talk to
other athletes at your school that are a year or two
ahead of you for pointers.
You may want to consider a recruiting service to
do the majority of your promotions. I highly
recommend a recruiting service as they can take on a
big portion of what needs to done as far as getting
the necessary exposure. After all if a recruiter
does not know about you they can't recruit you. A
recruiting service can get you in front of hundreds
of college coaches very quickly. They will most
likely have an expert on staff to advise and answer
any questions for you. Do your research when it
comes to hiring a recruiting service. Recruiting
services have fees that range from no fee to include
your player profile on a public web-site to $3000 or
more. You can get great exposure and the results you
want for under $1,000 with the right company. |
