For girls, the January College ID camp at Silverlakes, administered by Legends FC, is an outstanding way to interact with college coaches as they put the players thru drills. Not sure how it will be impacted by the new rules, but it was very beneficial to my daughter’s recruitment.
Can I ask her age and level of play?can you be more specific with how it helped with recruitment?did she reach out prior to coaches prior to the camp?
She is entering her second year of college. She plays for NC State University in the ACC, and ended up as a starter by the end of her freshman season. They made it to the round of 16 in the NCAA tournament. She did not reach out to coaches prior to the ID camp the first year she participated (freshman year of high school). She did it strictly to get comfortable with and playing for college coaches. At the time we were unsure if she wanted to play college soccer or if she was even good enough. There is a lot of trepidation and pressure to perform in those situations, so we felt it was best for her to try it and see if she liked it. It really helped to get her used to the idea of playing in front of coaches. And she received interest and feedback from a couple of programs thru her club coach in the following weeks, including the Wolfpack initial interest.
Thanks for this. DD has done training with SWAP a few years ago. Doing the camp this week and it’s fantastic.
