OVERVIEW 

The profile has 5 sections:  

1. Personal info. This section contains name, address, phone number, as well as the capability for entering email addresses to send the entire profile to any email address and a button to  download the formatted profile for editing and sending via USPS. This section also contains the email address and password for the account. Be sure to keep your contact information up to date.  Make it easy for coaches to find you.

2. Academic. This section contains all the player's academic information likely to be of interest to college coaches. Your goal is to be accepted to the college of your choice and your academic information is at least as important as your athletic record. Completing this section accurately and completely is important. Be sure to keep it up to date as new information is received. 

3. Athletic information. This section contains information about the player's physical condition, coach references, athletic honors and sports history. This section also includes statements of plans for tournaments and camps in the future so the coaches may make plans to observe. Don't try to pad this list with items of insignificance.  Coaches will quickly see through this.  Keep your statements to facts that make you stand out in a meaningful way.

4. College Interest. This section contains information about the interests of the athlete as to college location, division, academic interests and other factors.  Coaches will use this information in considering whether to observe you. If you say you are only interested in D1 in the Midwest, coaches from other divisions and regions are not likely to make a point to observe you.  Rule out only those options that you are sure that you would not consider under any circumstances.

5. Gallery. This section allows for uploading still images to an online photo gallery and inserting links to You Tube videos to provide coaches access to observe videos of the player in action. While short videos may catch a coach's interest they can't replace a well done player video sent to coaches.
