Womens Basketball Northwest Recruiting Tour Hosted by Coach John Scott. High School Student Athletes tour colleges in the northwest to create recruiting opportunities.

2023 Seniors, time is running out! If you are holding out for a "full ride" then you might be left without anywhere to play!

The truth is that most athletes don't get full rides and instead get a combination of funding to go to school. If you have schools that are interested in you, you need to talk with them to see what they can do for you financially and see if they're a good fit for you.

Most college coaches have their teams filling up quickly so act quickly!

Whitworth University is located in the beautiful city of Spokane, Washington. It is a private NCAA D3 college where all incoming students receive financial aid.

There are 21 men's and women's sports and 83% of graduates finish their degrees in 4 years!

Around this time of year, most people dream of traveling to somewhere warmer. How about if you went to school in Hawaii?!

Chaminade University is in Honolulu and has 10 men's and women's sports at the NCAA D2 level. It's a private school and almost all students receive some form of financial aid.

Seniors! We're getting to crunch time with recruiting and you need to know exactly where you are in the recruiting process.

Are you getting recruited or not?

If you are unsure if a school is recruiting you, then the answer is probably no.

You've got to be PROACTIVE if you want to play. That means you either need to get on the phone and start calling schools, or find someone to help.

We'll give you an honest assessment about where you're at for free and you can decide if you'd like help or not.

You only get one chance to play in college so don't let it pass you by.

We're a the end of 2022 and most high school sports have either finished their seasons or are in season now. If you are a Senior and are not currently talking to college coaches a couple of times per month, you are not being recruited.

It's not too late, but the time to act is now. If you are not hearing from coaches then you need to reach out to them. You can do it on your own or reach out to us for help. We've helped thousands of kids play in college, and would love to help you too!

We've mentioned this fact in several of our tips but the reality is that if you want to play college sports, your best chance is to be proactive and take control of your recruitment.

Here are 4 reasons why you need to go find colleges and not hope that they find you:
1. Money
2. Time
3. Limited Coaching Staff
4. Limited Tools & Resources

This week, we're exploring the campus of Aurora University, in Illinois. Founded in 1893, Aurora University is on a 40 acre campus, 40 miles from Chicago.

We've talked about a lot of different things to do and not do on your recruiting journey. We'd like to add four more things to consider when trying to find a college to play at:
1. School is cool
2. It doesn't matter if you believe in yourself, if college coaches don't
3. Don't play the fame game
4. You don't have to go D1 to be one
