Camp Tips for Recruits

  • After any camp, follow up with an email to every coach you interacted with within 48 hours.
  • Your club coach is your best resource for identifying which events are worth your money and time.
  • Avoid expensive events that promise 'exposure' but have no confirmed college coaching attendance.
