Camps are a time to put everything on the line for college coaches.
Camps are a time to put everything on the line for college coaches.

The Summer of 2013 will be filled with camps, tournaments and other events for high school prospects to put all their talents on display for college coaches.  Regardless of age, this is a time to shine on some of the biggest stages.

Summer camps on college campuses are set up for coaches to supplement their income, yes, but they are also where they first set eyes on future recruits and start the all-important relationship building process.  Coaches will of course be looking for skilled athletes, but arguably just as important are the work ethic and attitude of the athletes.  A camper can have really good talent, but a poor attitude can spell the end to their hopes of being noticed and recruited.  On the other hand, a youngster with marginal-to-above-average talent that demonstrates a keen desire to learn, the ability to quickly duplicate what they’ve been taught while demonstrating gritty determination can stand out in the crowd.

Club and travel tournaments have grown to overwhelming numbers, but when the door opens and a coach walks through, prospects need to make their presence known by hustling and working harder than anyone else competing.  Coaches notice this and they take note when athletes don’t take plays off.

As an overview, the odds are against high school athletes in today’s recruiting model.  There are just too many athletes for the few available scholarship or roster spots.  But, when opportunities present themselves, athletes should be prepared to act and shine through that narrow window from which college coaches will be viewing them.
