  • Provides direct methods to getting in front of coaches that matter. We have several recruiters attempting to get us to sign with them. They offer discounts etc. But the key is to show up at a camp and show that coach what you can do. Then listen carefully to any advice and demonstrate, when given the chance, that you heard the coach advice by implementing it.
