The journey of becoming a U.S. student-athlete looks completely different from one athlete to the next. This process is not linear, which is why one of our most frequently asked questions is: when does this journey need to begin?

While the ‘recruiting timeline’ is going to look very different for everyone, there are ways that you can prepare and optimise your opportunity as a potential student-athlete.

We have outlined a ‘preparation timeline’ to give you an idea of what needs to happen over your high school years, and at what stage.

Check out our most recent blog that goes over the key points along the preparation timeline, to help you best prepare as a potential student-athlete!
