General Volleyball Recruiting Advice:
Understand the Landscape of NCAA Volleyball

The simplest recruiting advice: study and understand your specific sport on a high school and a collegiate / NCAA level. High school volleyball is unique from high school football – and as a “non-revenue” NCAA sport, it certainly differs from NCAA football and basketball.

College volleyball recruiting is as competitive (and can often be more competitive) than football or basketball recruiting.

The key to improving your college recruiting and scholarship chances is being informed.  Understand the landscape of your sport on a high school and NCAA level and begin to understand where you fit within that landscape. Do you fit in best in Division I, II, or III volleyball? And how do your athletic goals fit within that? Do you have strong geographic preferences and how will that impact your college choices?

As you begin to develop and mature academically and athletically, consider your current skill-sets and where you intend to be as a high-school graduate and as a college-graduate. Understanding your personal, athletic, and academic interests and skills is crucially important as you enter the college recruiting process.

Begin collecting information and data about universities, teams, and coaches as early as you can because this is an integral step in setting the academic, athletic and collegiate goals that will guide you through the college recruiting process.

Visit university websites and team sites and form a foundation of academic and athletic information. You can access 1,000s of sites instantly by registering with beRecruited.com or manually by visiting NCAA.org.

Most importantly, start considering your academic and athletic goals early in your high school career. Too many high school athletes start the college recruiting process late in their junior years or early in their senior years. This is simply too late. Take action early – you will be more informed, better prepared, and better organized when senior year begins. You train, practice and prepare for months and years before a major athletic competition; and you shouldn’t treat this any differently.
