In this article:
On the eve of June 15, volleyball prospects across the nation are eagerly anticipating a crucial milestone: the initial contact date for NCAA Division I and Division II college coaches. PrepDig has compiled a comprehensive Contact List for June 15, highlighting the top California prospects we’ve seen on the circuit this year.
This article aims to help you navigate the upcoming interactions with college coaches effectively.
Understanding the Significance of June 15
June 15 marks the first day that college coaches can reach out directly to rising juniors. This initial contact is a significant step in the recruitment process, but it’s essential to understand that it’s just the beginning. Receiving a phone call or email on this date is exciting, but it doesn’t guarantee an immediate offer. Instead, it signals the start of a potentially fruitful communication process that you must harness effectively.
What to Expect if You’re Contacted
If you’re listed on the PrepDig Contact List, you might receive a call or email from a college coach on June 15. This initial contact is an opportunity for both parties to learn more about each other. Coaches will introduce their school and program, while also seeking to understand your academic interests, your experience with your current school and club team, and your extracurricular activities beyond volleyball. Remember, you are interviewing them just as much as they are assessing your potential.
Maximizing Your Initial Contact
Here are some tips to help you maximize your first conversation with a college coach:
- Prepare Your Questions: Think about what you want to know about the program, team culture, and the school itself.
- Talk About Yourself: Be prepared to share your background, academic interests, and your passions beyond volleyball.
- Understand the Process: Remember, this initial contact is just the beginning. Coaches are evaluating if you’ll fit well with their team dynamics.
- Invite Them to Watch You Play: Invite them to watch you compete at your upcoming Showcase and Nationals!
What If You Don’t Hear From a Coach?
Don’t be discouraged if you don’t receive a call or email on June 15. This date is merely the kickoff for the contact period, and not everyone can be reached on the same day. If you don’t hear from a coach immediately, consider being more proactive. Reach out to the coaches of the programs that are realistic for your play level via email, phone, or direct message. Express your interest and provide them with your upcoming playing schedule and always include a highlight reel.
Final Thoughts
June 15 marks an exciting day for volleyball prospects, as it signals the beginning of direct communication with college coaches. Whether you receive a call or need to take the initiative yourself, remember that this marks the start of your recruitment journey. Stay prepared, proactive, and use this opportunity to find the best fit for your academic and athletic aspirations.
