It is so important for you the athlete, to get recruiting done prior to starting the meet. Email the college coaches on your list by Sunday and let them know the day and time you compete. Also, post a headshot on Instagram or put a headshot in your email. You want them to be able to find you quickly when you are competing. So the #1 item is to stop thinking about recruiting after you send off the last email to college coaches. Take next week for you! Go into Nationals with a plan and execute the plan. Make no excuses and remember the importance of one event at a time.

YOU'VE GOT THIS!

Stop by our table in Oklahoma at the venue and say hello! We would love to meet you in person.

There is nothing worse than training lots of numbers but struggling to compete consistently. This podcasts helps to remind the athlete how important it is to compete by training your mind to be positive. We know the college coaches look for a lot of things, but consistency is high on their list. Being a one hit wonder does not work in our sport. Six up five count is the name of the game in the college meet. The college coach has to know you can hit when it counts.

www.jhickconsulting.com ~ we are in your corner taking the pressure off of the athlete and parent as they navigate the college recruiting process.

This episode explains the different ways a recruit can ultimately get onto a college team. So many times we rule out Level 9's, but Jill shares her "Shannon" story and how this Level 9 not only received a walk on spot to one of her college teams, but also an athletic scholarship.

Enjoy this encouragement and reach out to us if you would like more information

We like to start by Level 9 or 9th grade whichever comes first

We want you to be found and recruited. You have worked too hard, to pull back or not show your best attributes not only as a gymnast but also as a person.

How is your Instagram looking? Are you adding videos consistently even if you are injured or having a few bad events? You do not have to be perfect, you just need to show your progress. Maybe you have a website or you post to YouTube. Everyone has a different comfort level on which platform they want to utilize, but the key is be consistent. Remember you are unique and you have strengths that no one else will have. Be creative and have fun with marketing yourself to the college coaches.

Special thanks to one of my past JH families who sent me this topic. Feel free to send more ideas for my podcast.  I want this to be a place you can learn and hear the most important topics you have on your mind today about the college recruiting process.  

While most of us are familiar with the hard work and dedication it takes to earn an athletic scholarship, it is important to recognize that it can also be removed.  Jill will share the few but important reasons the NCAA allows removal of the scholarship and she also shares how a walk-on can earn an athletic scholarship.

It is not easy to sell yourself to the college coaches.  Most of my clients say they have a hard time knowing what to say in follow up email or how to make the subject line stand out.  All of these things can be important to attract a college coach to check you out as a potential recruit.
