A guide to building a 2-3 minute highlight reel for right back recruits. Include game clips, a self-interview with your GPA and graduation year, then crosses to the far post, 1v1 dribbling and defending, and every-touch sequences showing typical right back actions. Contact Zev Taublieb via the links in bio for help.
If you're a right back, this is what you need in your highlight video. First of all, have a clip and then cut straight to your self-interview. And in your self-interview, on the right-hand side while you're talking, we need to have your GPA, we need to have your grad level— excuse me, your club level— and your grad year. Now we've saw a clip of soccer, we saw the self-interview, now we're going to see more soccer. So when it comes to soccer, if you have a goal or assist, that's the best, obviously. But if you ask me what kind of goal or assist, a curler. Right backs are often sought after because in the college game you're going to be delivering a lot of crosses. So you can cut inside and hit a banger to the far post, college coaches would love that. On the flip side, if you can show us a cross that you're delivering, that's, you know, Anthony Robinson, that's a player, a left back for Fulham, who's American. If you can deliver a cross that really whips it in, oh, the college coaches would love some of that. And then lastly is if you're dribbling 1v1 and you beat the guy or you dribble inside, say you're playing left back as a right-footed player, pressure's coming on you and you dribble inside and then you take your space and then you ping a ball, Alexander-Arnold-esque, to the other side of the field. College coaches are going to love that. And then finally, you can show us your 1v1 defending after that. So remember, your video is only 2 to 3 minutes. Then as a right back, show us your every touch video, you know, and in that moment you'll have lots of passes backwards to center back, maybe to a winger, maybe an overlapping run, but you're going to need a bunch of every touch videos.
