Creating Your Brand

Lesson 1 of 7 within section Preparing Yourself to be Recruited.
Marketing Yourself Digitally to Get Recruited

Which Schools Should I Research?
Choosing which schools to contact is not easy. You should probably do some general research into any school before you contact them.
Lesson 4 of 7 within section Preparing Yourself to be Recruited.
Which Schools Will I Contact?
fter doing research, you might find out your dream school isn’t exactly all it’s cracked up to be. You might end up getting an offer from their biggest rival and not them. The recruiting process is never very straight forward, but you can save yourself time if you do a little research before hand.
Lesson 5 of 7 within section Preparing Yourself to be Recruited.
Am I Even Getting Exposure?
Maybe coaches have seen you play before and maybe they haven’t. Regardless of this, you just sent emails out to coaches. When you contacted them, especially if you included a highlight or game film you just got exposure! Hopefully, it is good and you made a great first impression.
Lesson 6 of 7 within section Preparing Yourself to be Recruited.
Getting Exposed
A lot of players are led to believe that they aren’t getting recruited because they aren’t getting enough exposure. While, in a few instances this maybe true, the majority of the time lack of exposure is not the problem! They are actually getting exposed.
Lesson 7 of 7 within section Preparing Yourself to be Recruited.
Making a Decision
Talking to Coaches
Many players are afraid of talking to coaches because they don’t know what to say. Talking to coaches should be easy if you have the right mindset. Â

Official campus visits are visits in which the college or university pays for part or all of the costs of the visit. Official visits are fun, but you should be prepared.

Understanding Your Path
Understanding your path is hard. It seems to be a common theme in society that just because you have a dream and you work hard that it will be a straight line to your end goal.
Lesson 4 of 5 within section Making a Decision.
Choosing a School
Choosing a school is the time where all of your hard work has finally paid off. It is an exciting time; and a time that you should not take for-granted because not many people get to choose. Enjoy the process but make sure that you are informed when it comes decision time.
