.: Swim Recruit Workshop - Full

Indianapolis, IN , July 24th, 2007

Response to the first CollegeSwimming.com Swim Recruit workshop has been overwhelming.  After moving to a larger venue, we have filled the room and are unable to accept additional registrations.   

The Workshop allow participants to learn from the people whose business is recruiting swimmers. The Swim Recruit workshop will provide swimmers and parents an insight into the recruiting process.  

  • NCAA initial eligibility & recruiting rules;
  • Strengths of each Division;
  • What coaches look for in recruits;
  • How to market yourself to coaches;
  • Strategies for making a good decision;
  • Twelve things every recruit and parent want to know but are afraid to ask;
  • and much, much more.

This workshop will help you make sense of the process and give you the resources to make an informed decision.
