An ECNL RL freshman breaks down how to get recruited for Division I soccer as a center midfielder: play for a nationally ranked team, create six to eight highlight videos yearly, keep your GPA above 3.7, and start with Division II and III programs first since center mid is competitive.
I'm playing ECNL RL. It's April. I'm a freshman. Can I play Division 1 soccer as a center mid? With those accolades, you could potentially play Division 1 soccer. The steps you would have to take are the following. Eventually, you would need to be on your ECNL team, or your ECNL RL team has to be nationally ranked and going to playoffs and doing extraordinarily well. Number 2, you're going to need about 6 to 8 videos a year. Number 3, If you can keep your GPA at that ratio, you're looking at a very good scholarship, but if you get it above a 3.7, you will get a lot more opportunity. And finally, given your position as a center mid, it is the most competitive position out there, and so for that, it will make it a lot more difficult for you to play Division I. For this reason, I would aim for Division III and Division II schools first, and then focus your attention on Division I. And when I say, and then, I'm talking about April, May, June, focus on Division II, Division III, and then the— after that, focus on Division I schools at the same time.
