The three types of messages you should be sending to college coaches to increase your chance of getting a scholarship. And the thing is, number three is the best and simplest one to send. Yet it gets the best results first. If you want a free spreadsheet with 6,000 college coaches emails, all you have to do is DM me the word D1 on Instagram and I'll send it to you for free. The first type of message is just a simple introduction message. This should give the coach all the necessary information they need to figure out if you make sense for the program. And by necessary information, I mean height, weight, graduation, year, GPA, position. They need all these things because they recruit a lot based on needs. If they don't need your position, then why would they recruit you in the first place? Then you're going to want to include some personalized stuff about that school or maybe that coach and then just link your highlights because your whole goal of the email is to get them to click their your highlights to make sure that you know, hey, they evaluate you and see if you make sense for them. The second type of message you can send is an update message. An update is just some way to prove to them that you're super valuable for them as program because recruiting is.
