Ep. 272 | Don't Expect Help From Your Coaches

from PrepWell Podcast with Phil Black Hosted by Phil Black

In this episode, I dispel a myth that many parents (and athletes) fall prey to when it comes to college athletic recruiting: "My club coach will help me get an athletic scholarship" As well-intentioned as many coaches are, you cannot (and should not) expect your club coach (or high school coach) to drive the recruitment process for your child. That's not going to happen. Implementing a college recruiting plan is labor-intensive and highly-specific to your child. If you have a child that may be interested in playing their sport in college at any level (e.g. DI, DII, DIII, service academies), please listen to this episode to learn who should be responsible for what and when.
