Recruiting

We feel EVERY player has the ability to play at the collegiate level. It takes hard work both ON the court and OFF the court. As a Club, we also work hard to provide YOU with extensive information and services to help you find your college home.

MYTHS
  • I'm not good enough to play in college

  • Since I play club volleyball, I will  be recruited to play college volleyball

  • The club will handle the whole recruiting process for me

  • I received a piece of mail from a school, this means they are already recruiting me

  • The club I play for and the events we play don't matter in the recruiting process

  • Scholarships are automatically four-year commitments by both parties

  • My grades do not matter as long as my volleyball skills are impressive

A GOOD FIT, ABOVE ALL ELSE
  • What is important to you in a college?

  • Location, location, location - if you were not playing volleyball at this school, would you still attend?

  • What level of commitment and sacrifice is involved at the different levels (D1, D2, D3, NAIA)

  • What feels right to you?

  • How do you fit in with the coaches and current roster?

  • What extra curricular or off-campus involvement is available?

WHAT ARE COLLEGE COACHES LOOKING FOR?
  • Attitude and character - On AND off the court

  • Needs for certain positions and graduation years

  • Size, vertical, speed, court acumen, experience, heart, talent.

  • Players interest level in their program

MARKETING
