QUESTIONS TO ASK THE COACHES AT ID CAMPS

During the recruiting process, below are some questions you should ask of college coaches:

• Are you recruiting players in my position in the upcoming recruiting class?
• What qualities do you look for in a player in my position?
• What formation do you play with your college team?
• What are the roles and the responsibilities of the players in my position?
• What does the culture of your soccer program look like?
• Can you tell me what the academic and training calendar looks like for a player in your program?
• How much extra strength and conditioning is required or provided in your program?
• How often do you like to see your recruits play live?
• Are video clips important to you? If so do you prefer full games or shorter highlight clips?
• Would I be able to do an official visit at some point during my senior year and what would that visit entail?
• Do you offer recruits roster spots or walk-on tryouts? Where do you see me fitting into the recruiting class and your team’s plans?
• How does your financial aid process work?
• Do you offer athletic scholarships and academic scholarships?
• What is the GPA you look for from players in your program?
• Are there other requirements of the players in your program away from the soccer field such as community service or fundraising?
