Now that you have learned the purpose of ball-tracking cameras, we will explore the importance of gathering footage for athletes to garner attention from college coaches. It has been proven that online recruiting profiles that include a highlight video receive more than 10 times as much traffic as those without one. Highlight videos draw attention from coaches who evaluate strengths and weaknesses of an athlete, along with determining if an athlete fits the criteria for recruitment to their program. Check out this  clip  highlighting how student-athletes can utilize social media to get recruited.

At In-Form Sports, we are a group of former college athletes that know what it takes to get recruited. Highlight tapes are key components to a recruiting profile in order to showcase your skill set. Here are some more helpful tips to assist your recruiting process: 

• Create relationships with coaches
• Introduce yourself and offer contact information in order to stay in touch to consistently communicate
• Your personality off the field is just as important as your on-field play in order to determine the right program fit
• Seek out resources and tutoring if you're struggling academically
• The best way to show you’re serious about college sports is to have the grades to match
