How does recruiting for sports work?
Once you register for recruitingforsports.com -
you can set up your own webpage and alter it at any time. This
is a great way for you to show coaches your grades, stats, and
general information in one easy to access place.
Why is it important to have a website?
With more and more students competing for recruiting
spots on college teams, college coaches need to get information
about the athlete faster and more organized. This website brings
it all together in one place. With recruitingforsports.com you
can include information about your school, grades, SAT scores,
sports, stats, references, video, and transcript. And you name
the website after your own name which helps coaches remember
who you are. This website is a great tool for you to communicate
with coaches nationwide.
Will coaches see this website?
Yes because you will be sending them your link.
When you create this site - you assign it a name- your name.
Your
website address is then http://www.recruitingforsports.com/yourname

VIDEOS
I
have a video but it is very large
The video must be in webformat and under 10mg.
For larger videos we suggest you post a notice on your website
that a dvd will be available upon request. Coaches may not want
to watch a long video online but highlight videos are good teasers
to open the door to an initial contact with the coach. If there
is interest, you can mail the full dvd to the coach.
I
have a video highlight - but i don't know how to get it into
the site
To upload your video - once logged in, go to
video upload page and select upload, or contact us at info@recruitingforsports.com

is the image size guidelines? Is it important to use images?
Coaches like to see a picture of the recruit.
It completes your profile. They can read about your accomplishments
and looks at you as well. The limit on the photo is 150KB and the
ideal size in pixels is 160 x 200. You have a picture but it is not
