Student athletes seeking to play at the collegiate level will need to carefully plan their self-promotion strategy in order to effectively reach the coaches of colleges they wish to attend. As the number of prospective student athletes increases, along with advancements in technology and the American youth soccer culture, competition for college roster spots is getting stiffer.
The vast majority of prospective student athletes are not actively recruited. That is, they must initiate contact with college coaches and promote themseles to generate interest and opportunity. This is where the web is becoming increasingly useful.
With a profile on MyGKSite.com, keepers can easily send all of their pertinent information by emailing their link to college coaches. Coaches handle a constant stream of player information and correspondence which is professional and time saving can set one player apart from the rest. The profile pages on MyGKSite.com are very professional and offer a college coach all of the initial information they need to consider a prospective player. The additional option of adding video footage takes your player profile to another level. The bottom line: self promotion in the college search is crucial and www.mygksite.com can be a very effective promotional tool. |
