Is there a lot of scholarship money available for junior girls?

While the belief that there is an abudance of unused scholarships is a bit misleading, it is still a great opportunity for a girl to earn athletic scholarship money. Not all golf programs are fully funded with the allowed NCAA scholarships so they funding is more limited than what most players and parents anticipate. And across the board it is much more competitive for the scholarship money than most girls realize beacuse they are competing against girls from not just in the US but internationally as well.

What is the difference between an official and unofficial visit?

An official visit is not allowed until first day of a athlete’s senior year but expenses can be covered including food, lodging and entertainment. An athlete is only allowed 5 total official visits and only 1 per instituion. An unofficial visit is allowed anytime during the process but no expenses are allowed to be covered by the institution, only 3 complimentary tickets to an athletic event. An athlete may take as many unofficial visits as they would like.

How do players verbally commit if the coaches can’t contact them before Sept 1st?

A junior golfer can send emails and make phone calls on their own initiative prior to Sept 1st and include their swing or high school coaches contact info.  While a college coach can not initiate email or phone communication with a player before Sept 1 of their junior year, they are allowed to contact a player’s swing or high school coach to schedule  an unofficial visit.

When should I start the recruiting process?

This greatly varies based on a player's resume and expectations but generally for a female golfer once you are consistently shooting under 80 from 5800yds and longer you can begin the recruting process. If this doesn’t happen before spring of junior year then it is imperative that you begin the process no matter what and stay as realistic as possible. It is never too early to begin the process but this is a general reference point for the resume that a coach would consider prior to a player’s junior year.

Are you a swing instructor?

No, I do not teach any swing instruction. My role is to ensure a junior golfer is in good hands with an instructor who understands the competitive junior golf world and has an awareness of the college recruiting process. For some players I do provide coaching and suggestions on short game fundamentals, course management skills, and practice drills based on my experience of playing collegiate and professional golf.

Do you know a lot of the college coaches?

Yes, throughout my junior, collegiate and professional golf career, plus 8+ years of working in the college recruiting industry I have worked hard to develop relationships with college coaches all over the country. I do not take these relationships for granted and strive to maintain respect from the coaches on how I consult each player through their college recruiting journey.
