Navigating the path to college athletics requires more than just talent—it demands strategic choices and informed planning. Are you aware of which teams, tournaments, showcases, and prospect camps will give your child the best exposure to college coaches? Have you registered them with the NCAA and kept up with recent recruiting rule changes, including dead periods and eligibility requirements? Do you understand the difference between a verbal commitment and a National Letter of Intent (NLI)? Beyond relying on high school or travel coaches, are you actively creating opportunities for recruitment while balancing development with exposure? Are you familiar with the distinctions between D1, D2, D3, and JUCO programs? Most importantly, are you helping your child grow holistically—mentally, spiritually, physically, emotionally, socially, and academically—to be ready for the demands of college athletics, truly?
