As a high school volleyball player you are probably
very good, maybe the best at your school, well here's a news flash. Unless
you are in the top 5%, or elite category, don't expect the volleyball coaches
to come knocking on your door.
If you want to be recruited, especially at
community college level, you have to make it happen. You have to contact the
coaches and let them know who you are and what you have to offer
their volleyball program.
JUCO volleyball is a women's only sport and is played in all 3 divisions but
sports
scholarships are only available at division 1 and 2 level.
The NJCAA allows 14 scholarships per school. These are
full-ride scholarships but individual schools can offer partial grants
in aid. The best players of course, players receive the best offers. There are
103
division 1 and 114 division 2 colleges that offer financial aid to
volleyball players. Each school can only offer 14 scholarships in total,
unlike the NCAA they cannot offer a larger number of at
a lower percentage.
High school volleyball players should consider playing club volleyball because the high school season coincides with the collegiate
season, most coaches actively recruit during the club season. A lot of
college coaches search for prospective players at Junior Olympic
Tournaments, national qualifiers and regional tournaments.
Junior college coaches do
not have the large budgets that NCAA coaches have so they cant
actively recruit or hire scouts. Many JC coaches cant allocate all of their
recruiting budget each year simply because they were not approached by
suitable athletes.
We prepare a detailed athletic and academic resume on your behalf and have it
addressed and delivered to the head volleyball coach at every community
college in the country giving you the best possible chance of getting
recruited.
