But the process of getting an athletic recruiting scholarship can be daunting. There are a lot of different factors to consider, and it can be hard to know where to start.

That's where this guide comes in. We'll walk you through everything you need to know about getting an athletic recruiting scholarship, from choosing the right sports to creating a standout profile.

Chapter 1: Choosing the Right Sports

The first step in getting an athletic recruiting scholarship is to choose the right sports. Not all sports are created equal when it comes to scholarship opportunities.

Some sports, such as football and basketball, have a lot of scholarship money available. Other sports, such as track and field and swimming, have less scholarship money available.

It's important to choose a sport that you're good at and that you enjoy playing. But it's also important to be realistic about your chances of getting a scholarship in that sport.

If you're not one of the top athletes in your sport, you may want to consider a sport that has more scholarship money available.

Chapter 2: Creating a Standout Profile

Once you've chosen the right sports, it's time to start creating a standout profile. This is what colleges and universities will use to evaluate your athletic ability and potential.

Your profile should include the following information:

* Your athletic resume, which should list your accomplishments in your sport * Your academic transcript, which should show your grades and GPA * Your ACT or SAT scores * Your letters of recommendation, which should come from coaches, teachers, and other adults who can attest to your character and athletic ability

It's important to make sure that your profile is complete and accurate. Colleges and universities will be looking for athletes who are not only talented, but also well-rounded and academically successful.

Chapter 3: Contacting Colleges and Universities

Once you've created a standout profile, it's time to start contacting colleges and universities. You can do this by attending college fairs, visiting campuses, and sending emails to coaches.

When you contact a college or university, be sure to include the following information:

* Your name and contact information * Your athletic resume * Your academic transcript * Your ACT or SAT scores * Your letters of recommendation

You should also be prepared to answer questions about your athletic ability and goals.

Chapter 4: The Recruiting Process

The recruiting process can be long and stressful. But it's important to be patient and persistent.

Colleges and universities will typically take their time evaluating your profile. They may want to see you play in person, or they may want to talk to your coaches and teachers.

Once a college or university has decided that they want to recruit you, they will send you an offer letter. This letter will outline the terms of your scholarship, including the amount of money you will receive and the academic requirements you must meet.

Chapter 5: Making a Decision

Choosing the right college or university is a big decision. You'll want to consider factors such as the school's academic reputation, its athletic program, and its location.

It's also important to make sure that you feel comfortable with the coaches and staff at the school. You'll be spending a lot of time with these people, so it's important to make sure that you have a good relationship with them.

Once you've made a decision, be sure to send a thank-you note to the coaches and staff at the school. This will show them that you appreciate their offer and that you're excited to be joining their program.

Getting an athletic recruiting scholarship is a great way to achieve your dream of playing the sport you love at a top-notch college or university. But the process can be daunting.
