Soccer recruiting: get in front of the right college coaches

College soccer coaches recruit heavily from ID camps and elite club leagues. Athletes outside those circuits need to go to the coaches directly.

What college soccer coaches look for

  • Technical ability and first touch.
  • Tactical awareness off the ball.
  • Physical tools for position.
  • Club level and playing time.

Film that works

Wide-angle game film plus a highlight cut. Coaches want to see positioning and decisions, not just goals.

Numbers to have ready

Position, club level, goals/assists or clean sheets, GPA.

Recruiting timing

Varies by division and gender; many programs keep recruiting through senior year. Confirm current dates in the NCAA recruiting calendar for your sport.
