Individual Recruiting Consulting
  •  Meeting with the athlete/parent. The athlete must bring their list of 15-20 schools and the information sheet provided through email prior to the meeting.
  • The list of schools based on the athlete’s academic and athletic goals will be discussed with guidance and suggestions provided.
  • All general questions about the process will be answered during this meeting.
  • athletic evaluation provided by club director
  • A follow-up email with additional school suggestions, an example resume and example email format to contact college coaches will be sent after meeting.    
  • A step-by-step timeline for the entire process from freshman through senior year 
  • Editing of resume and introductory email
  • Collaborative effort between athlete and AFA Lacrosse will take place throughout the year to maintain email correspondence with schools, select camps and play-days to attend, and any middle man correspondence required will be performed to achieve answers to the athlete’s questions.
    • Middle Man role is necessary because coach(s) cannot respond to the athlete’s emails until September 1st of junior year. Although the athlete may call a coach at any time the coaches are not allowed to call a prospective athlete until July 1st of senior year. We can help set up visits, phone calls, and obtain information from a coach on where the player stands on their recruiting list.
  • Questions throughout the process will be answered through email and or phone calls.
