Recruiting done the right way
It's important to note that the recruiting process for college lacrosse can vary depending on factors such as the level of play (NCAA Division I, II, III, NAIA, etc.), the competitiveness of the program, and the individual athlete's skills and achievements.
​
​
Here are a few key points to consider:
NCAA ELIGIBILTY
To be eligible for NCAA Division I or Division II lacrosse, student-athletes need to register with the NCAA Eligibility Center and meet academic requirements, including completing core courses and achieving a minimum GPA and standardized test scores.
COLLEGE LACROSSE PROGRAMS
There are a wide range of college lacrosse programs across different divisions, each with its own recruiting processes and standards. Division I programs are typically highly competitive and may start recruiting athletes as early as freshman or sophomore year of high school. Division II and Division III programs also actively recruit athletes, but the timeline and intensity may vary.
PLAYER PROFILES AND HIGHLIGHT VIDEOS
To showcase their skills and attract the attention of college coaches, student-athletes often create comprehensive player profiles that include academic information, athletic achievements, statistics, and personal background. They may also create highlight videos that showcase their gameplay, skills, and versatility.
RECRUITING EVENTS AND CAMPS
Attending lacrosse recruiting events, camps, and showcases can provide student-athletes with opportunities to demonstrate their abilities in front of college coaches. These events allow coaches to evaluate multiple players in a competitive setting and potentially identify prospects for their programs.
COMMUNICATION AND CONTACTING COACHES
It's important for student-athletes to proactively reach out to college coaches to express their interest and provide them with relevant information. This can include sending introductory emails, sharing player profiles and highlight videos, and keeping coaches updated on achievements and upcoming events.
ACADEMIC PERFORMANCE
While athletic ability is important, academic performance also plays a crucial role in the recruiting process. College coaches often consider the student-athlete's academic record and seek well-rounded individuals who can excel both on the field and in the classroom.
