Girls soccer players should start recruiting emails to Division I coaches in sophomore year. Coaches read emails mentioning MLS Next or ECNL, especially if you're attending their camp. Getting an official visit typically takes 30 email exchanges, and contact before the NCAA's June 15 deadline raises your odds of playing D1 by about 60%.
Why should you start your sophomore year? Well, for the first reason, D1 schools will read your emails, especially if you're a girls soccer player. Now you might think they're not gonna read your emails 'cause they're not supposed to, but if your subject line says MLS Next or ECNL, they're gonna read it and they're gonna wanna know about you, especially if in the email you talk about the fact that you're gonna go to their camp. Number 2, it typically takes about 30 emails back and forth to get an invite on an official visit. This includes part of your freshman, sophomore year when they're not supposed to be talking to you. And if it takes 30 genuine emails back and forth, then it's best you get started early because if you get started as a junior, you're probably going to run out of time before you hit that 30 email mark. And finally, number 3, the more you do before June 15th, the considerably better chance you will have of playing Division I college soccer. Because on June 15th, if you're getting phone calls or genuine messages from those schools, the chance of you playing Division 1 goes up by 60%.
