A college soccer recruiting coach walks through how he found a player on TikTok, convinced him he had college potential, and guided him through recruiting. He shows how to write an email to coaches: put your GPA, club team, and graduation year in the subject line to stand out.
What I wish all of you knew in order to play college soccer. So you guys asked for more of my clients, more of the people I've worked with. So I'm going to show you some more people that I'm working with now. The student I'm going to show you that will allow you to learn from him, great story. I was coaching at a high school game, he played against us, we were scouting him all week, and then we got to play against him. And I went up to him afterwards, I was like, look, you're a good soccer player, you can play in college. And he was like, I can't. So now we're working together. That's not often how it works. Sometimes I reach you guys through TikTok, but other times he actually— I got to see him play in person and I could identify him. So you never know who's watching you guys. All right, so the first thing we talked about are his goals. He's really bright. He wants to go to the top schools in America because of his GPA. So the subject line we're going to read is 4.8 GPA, Irvine Strikers ECNL grad 2003. So this is a great subject line. It bounces out. It's very You know, you should look at this. I have a great GPA, I played for ECNL, and this is when I graduate. It's short.
