Getting Recruited

Your sports coaches are excellent resources for helping you navigate the recruitment process. They can help you get connected with tournaments where sports recruiters will be attending from various colleges. In addition colleges and universities each have recruiting questionnaires that you must fill out to be considered.  You can google the school you are interested in and search for their questionnaires.
