Hi Maximus,
To attract the attention of college coaches, begin by creating a concise highlight reel showcasing your best moves and share it on platforms such as YouTube or Hudl. Establish a profile on recruiting websites like NCSA and ensure your social media presence remains clean and professional. If you can attend sports camps and showcases frequented by coaches, and consider emailing them directly with your video and an explanation of why you would be an excellent addition to their team. Check with your high school coach for valuable connections and advice. Do not forget to maintain strong academic performance, and actively network at college fairs and sports events. Remain proactive and let your enthusiasm shine through. I hope this helps!

To get college coaches to reach out to you, start by creating a standout profile that highlights your athletic achievements, stats, academics, and personal info. A highlight video showcasing your skills is a must-have, too. Next, do some homework on schools that align with your athletic and academic goals, focusing on those where you have a good shot at being recruited. When you're ready to reach out, send personalized emails to coaches. Introduce yourself, share why you're interested in their program, and include your resume and video link. Attend camps and showcases to get noticed in person, and don't forget to use social media platforms like Twitter or Instagram to share your achievements and connect with coaches. Keep your grades up to meet NCAA requirements, making you a more attractive recruit. It also helps to have your current coaches or mentors vouch for you by reaching out to college coaches. If you don't hear back, don't worry! A polite follow-up email after a couple of weeks can keep the conversation going. Remember, the recruiting process takes time, so be persistent and patient. By taking these steps, you'll boost your chances of getting those coveted emails from college coaches.
