A soccer player who went from JV to a Division I full-ride scholarship shares three habits that got him there: filming every training and match on his phone, emailing hundreds of colleges with his footage, and attending six to eight ID camps yearly so coaches would know his name.
3 habits that took me from JV soccer to playing Division I college soccer on a full-ride scholarship. Number 1: I recorded everything. I took my phone to training on a tripod and recorded everything, so whenever I had that amazing moment, I had proof of it on footage. I was a defensive center mid, so I didn't have all these highlights, but when I had my one banger or my one ping, I had it on video. I recorded everything. I emailed hundreds of schools. In fact, I emailed every top academic Division III, every high-level Division II, and literally every single Division I school. I went to a ton of camps. Every single year I would go to about 6 to 8 ID camps, and that increased them knowing who I was, which then got other schools interested who didn't even know about me initially, because coaches talk and it's a small world. Comment the word state and I will send you a question of which state you're from, which will then give you every single club team that's the best in your state.
