Getting prepared to start talking to coaches is exciting. Talking to coaches even more so. And going on an official or unofficial visit is probably the most exciting element of your recruiting process.
Part of your recruiting process could be participating in a Showcase somewhere in the world: Europe in July 2019 for example.
Getting recruited by a college volleyball team is an exciting process, impacted by the maximum available scholarship budget.
Did 10 coaches reach out, trying to recruit you? Not going to happen unless you are leading the rankings in your state/country.
Team captain - every college team has one. What makes you an ideal captain & what is expected of you?
About to get recruited by a NCAA, NAIA or NJCAA school? What's the difference in terms of available scholarship money? Not every team has the same amount of scholarship budget available - let's have a look at why that's the case!
Curious? You better be, as there are quite a few things you can do wrong in the process of building a relationship with coaches.
Many people think coaches always have the maximum number of scholarships available - or that coaches have the same amount of money available, which makes for a level playing field. But did you know that's not the reality and not all college sports programs dispose of the maximum budget? Some coaches work with the limitation of being partially funded and other coaches with no available athletic scholarship budget at all.
The moment when somebody commits to an athletic program at college can vary widely. But there is a massive upside of getting things done rather earlier than later.
All the talk about full-ride scholarships, partial scholarship or walk-ons. How does all of this actually work? How much scholarship money does a coach have to give to players? What does a scholarship cover and how are the various divisions different from each other?
