What Coaches Are Saying...

SportsToSchool.com has gone straight to the source, and the results are in.

Do you know that over 95% of college coaches that we surveyed said that they want YOU to contact them directly?

We asked the coaches if they ever recruit high school athletes who contact them directly, and the overwhelming majority said YES!

We asked the coaches if they would go to a high school athlete's Website to get information about them, and the overwhelming majority said YES!

With a SportsToSchool membership,you get your own website where you can showcase yourself and your athletic and academic achievements, as well as access to a database of over 20,000 college coaches!

We asked coaches to offer advice to high school athletes looking to get noticed by college coaches, and here is what some of them had to say:

Coaches' Advice

"Don't wait for a coach to notice you. There are so many athletes and so little recruiting time that I give top priority to athletes that contact me. Contacting me lets me know that you are serious about playing in college and are confident and outgoing. Know the recruiting rules for the level you wish to play. Depending on the school (and the time of the year), we may not be able to actually talk to you until a certain date. Don't think we are ignoring you, stay persistent and you be at the top of the list!" - Brian De Witt - Highland College

"Athletes should market themselves. Most recruits can promote themselves at very little cost." - Brad Barbarick - Concordia University

"Keep sending the coaches information. The more times we see your name go across our desks the better." - Amy Weaver - Hendrix College

"Get your name and info out to the coaches. Let them know when and where you are playing, and keep in touch with them."
- Bob Fisher - Baldwin-Wallace College

"Feel free to contact the coach, don't wait for them to contact you. Also, play hard no matter what." - Jay Tschetter - Mayville State University

"Don't be afraid to call a college coach. We may not know about you otherwise. All a coach can say is no thank you." - Kristy B. Ward - Northwest Shoals Comm. College

"Be proactive , enthusiastic, & keep your grades up." - Garry Hilling - North Country Community College

"Contact them and make the effort to go and visit the schools you might be interested in."
- Melissa Lamie - Grove City College

"Contact the coach more than one time."
- Tammy Mazza - Florida Institute of Technology

"We can't see everyone. There is nothing wrong with marketing yourself. Especially the schools you are interested in."
- Tony DiCecco - The University of Northern Iowa

Here's what you should do to get coaches to notice you:

Step #1:
Set up your own SportsToSchool Web Site. All you have to do is fill out a form, and we will put your Web Site up on the Internet for you. You can include your athletic stats, academic info, pictures, your coach's recommendation, and you can even tell the college coaches about YOU in your own words.

Step#3: Go to the "Members-Only Area," and use the sample recruiting letters and phone scripts so you'll know what to say when you contact the college coaches.

Step #4:
Contact the coaches directly, and send them to your SportsToSchool Web Site where they can learn more about you!
