WHAT CAN I DO TO HELP MY STUDENT ATHLETE PREPARE?
If you have not begun the college recruiting process, I would suggest by getting an athletic evaluation. You do not want to begin researching colleges until you have an idea of what kinds of athletic programs are a fit. For example, is she capable of playing at the division 1 level?
We highly recommend reviewing video of all levels of volleyball on YouTube. Ask your daughter, and her coaches if you all agree where she stands athletically. The fact is, there are some D-II, D-III & NAIA programs that can outperform many D-I programs. You don’t want to focus strictly on a division. You want to do your homework on the level of play. If you need some guidance on an athletic evaluation, one of our services provides for our student athletes is an academic and athletic evaluation. We then create a customized prospective college selection list from our comprehensive database. A list of college programs that are an academic, and athletic fit for your student athlete. If you try and do this on your own, you can expect to spend 100s hours on researching these programs.
Once we have a list of programs together, we need a Skills & Game footage highlight reel! Do not email a coach without a website resume and a Youtube video channel with Video clips. Your email is likely to be ignored. The coach needs to decide whether you are an athletic fit, before putting your student athlete on their recruiting radar. Review several of our student athlete videos below. It will give you an idea of what you need to put together. This is another service NCAAAP working with Reel Sports Recruit our in house Video company provides for our clients. You have 10 seconds to get the attention of the coach!
You need to also register your athlete for your free profile on University Athlete. UA is a recruiting tool many college coaches use at tournaments to identify players and keep them organized in their system. I highly recommend keeping this profile updated throughout the season.
