Spring is a key time for recruiting coaches to scout potential talent. Many players focus on their fall and winter seasons, but college coaches are watching, evaluating, and making decisions throughout the spring and have a lot more time to focus on recruitment when they are not in the midst of a tough season. This is when recruitment heats up—particularly for rising juniors and seniors. If you want to stand out, staying organized and on top of your game can make all the difference.
1. Build Your Recruitment Timeline One of the first steps in organizing for the spring is creating a personalized timeline for the recruiting process. College soccer programs have different recruitment schedules depending on the division (NCAA Division I, II, III, NAIA, etc.), and knowing when to send out emails, attend showcases, or take official visits can vary. 2. Prepare Your Recruiting Materials Recruitment isn’t just about your on-field performance—it’s also about how you present yourself. Organizing your recruitment materials early in the spring will save you a lot of stress as the season progresses. Here’s what you need:
Spring is a great time to attend college soccer showcases and camps, where coaches will be present and actively scouting talent. These events give you the opportunity to showcase your skills in front of multiple schools at once. They also offer a chance to get a feel for the atmosphere of different programs. Make sure to avoid the money-making camps. Look for showcases that are attended by coaches from colleges you’re interested in, and make sure to prepare beforehand—this means arriving with your materials ready, playing your best, and engaging with coaches.
