CAMP HARD…. CAMP SMART

Summer time means recruiting camps for high school athletes. The opportunities are numerous and can be overwhelming. To maximize your time and cost there are several points to address.

If you are not being actively recruited yet, attend camps that expose you to different athletic levels. This allows you to evaluate these levels as well as visit a variety of campuses.

If you are being recruited by a group of schools in your sport, attend camps that expose you to different types of campuses at that level. Your academic interest could also help you filter your options.

As you go through the recruiting process keep you options open. Your goals and paths may change.

Regardless of the camps you attend there are many benefits to be gained. You get to meet many people (coaches & other athletes). Build relationships and friendships. Share ideas and thoughts. Networking will help you and others. You also get the opportunity to prove your athletic ability and desire to compete. These are two qualities that are in your control!
