Student-Athletes Must Take A Proactive Role In
The Marketing Process
When Do College Coaches Start To Track Student-Athletes
According to a survey of 300 coaches, 30% of college coaches started tracking student-athlete as early as the freshman year in high school, 45% started tracking student-athletes in the sophomore year, and 25% started the tracking process in the junior year. Of the 300 coaches, none of them started tracking student-athletes in the senior year of high school.
Based on the above survey, families must learn how to put the student-athlete into a position so the college coaches know who they are and hopefully take notice of the athletic ability of the student-athlete.
