hrough research and communication with multiple college volleyball programs throughout the country, we have created a
template that can be of used to assist prospective student-athletes through the recruiting process. Our intent is to inform,
educate, and give total control to every recruit in the country.
There are 5 MAIN CONTROLLABLE POINTS that every recruit has FULL CONTROL of when researching where they
want to go to college:
1) Location: Where do I want to go to college?
2) Academics: What major(s) am I interested in, and does that university offer it?
3) Coaching Staff: Who do I want to learn from & be mentored by?
4) Teammates: Who do I want to play with and be with through my college career?

5) Campus & Team Culture: What environment & support system do I want to surround myself with within the
University, Volleyball program, and Academic services?
