10 7 Things Parents Need To Know About College Sports Recruitment Understand Your Childs Skill Level Encouraging your child is great, but knowing and understanding their skill level is most important when helping them find the right college and division that is the best fit. Teach Your Kid to be Proactive in their Recruitment When going through the college sports recruitment process your child needs to realize that college coaches don t want to speak to a student-athlete s parents. Coaches will not be able to get a sense of who the athlete is when they deal primarily with parents. Some coaches may take a parents persistence as a negative warning sign and dismiss the athlete who is not personally taking part in their own recruitment. College coaches may stop recruiting a student-athlete they believe has pushy parents. Don t let this happen to you. Let Them Do it Themselves You may feel you re helping your busy child by doing some of the recruiting legwork for them. The truth is, though, that you may actually be hurting their chances at a scholarship by limiting the development of relationships with coaches. If they are dedicated on their recruitment, they will be fine contacting the college coaches on their own. Get an Outsiders Opinion Have your child get evaluated by a non-biased coach (preferably someone you don t have to pay) to inform you on how they match up in their sport. Attending sports camps and showcases can help improve their skills while getting advice from college coaches. Have an Open Mind Be open to obtaining lots of advice. Use the evaluations wisely to understand what your child needs to work on in order to make it to the college level of play. Be Involved, But Not Too Much You support and encourage, but let them be the star. It may be hard to let them make their own decisions, but it is their life and will essentially be their decision where they attend college. Financial Aid and Scholarship Opportunities Most questions that surround higher education are about money. What can you afford and what is the college willing to do to help accommodate.
