Finding Athletic Scholarship opportunities
Many high school athletes and parents of these athletes are not aware of how many athletic scholarships are available. I spoke with a mother of a football player who told me that she felt like the college recruiting process was intimidating. I asked her to explain why she felt it was intimidating. She said that it seems “so hard to and understand.”
I understand her frustration and her fear. The truth is there are limited resources that explain the high school recruiting process, and how athletes can compete for athletic scholarships. Unfortunately when people fear something, that fear can prevent action. When parents and high school athletes are afraid of the unknown of the recruiting process, they ultimately do nothing.
The truth about finding athletic scholarships is that it really is a finding game. Having the right tools to identify, and proactively contact athletic programs and coaches is half the battle. College coaches have limited time and resources to identify all of the talent that is available to help their programs be competitive. High School coaches have limited time and resources to market all of their players. When you consider the time and resource limitations of high school and college coaches, the need for high school athletes and parents to take the responsibility to market themselves is critical to succeed in the sports recruiting process. To create a successful recruiting campaign, high school and junior college athletes need to have a plan. In that plan they need to right tools that will help them stand out from other recruits. They also need to identify athletic scholarship opportunities that they did not know existed. Where do high school and junior college athletes go to create such a plan?
