Lesson of the Day:
Game Plan + Execution = Success!
For today’s tip, we’re leaving you with a small dose of
reality...
Going to camps, attending showcases, and receiving a few
letters here and there does NOT necessarily mean your son or daughter is being
recruited.
When you’re getting recruited, then you’re in regular
communication with coaches. You’re getting hand-written letters and personal
invites to private 1-day camps. You’re on the phone with coaches. You’re
receiving multiple video requests. You’re being “followed” at showcases, and
you’re connecting with coaches on Facebook. In other words, you’re building
meaningful relationships with coaches and developing a deeper understanding of
what your perfect fit school looks like.
And so if these things aren’t happening for you, then you’re really not getting recruited yet. I know that’s a difficult reality for some athletes to hear, but it’s important that you know the truth.
The only way to make sure that you receive multiple offers
is to get into as many recruiting funnels as possible. This is very much a
numbers game. The more funnels you’re in, the more offers you’ll receive. And
the more offers you have, the more choices you’ll have. And in the end, that’s
what this is all about: having choices and choosing the perfect fit.
So you need to ask yourself one question – where am I in the
recruiting process right now… am I close to getting offers or am I far from it?
