How to Make a Player Profile to Send to Coaches

A Player Profile is very important to include in your emails to college coaches. This allows them to start to put a name with a face and understand your academic and athletic achievements. By placing information in one easily accessible location, it makes it much easier for a coach to evaluate a prospective student-athlete.

What should a Player Profile include?

• Headshot picture

Preferably include a picture in your uniform. Also make sure to use a high quality image that looks as professional as possible.

• Academic information and achievements

High School, Graduation year, GPA, Honors, Awards etc…

• Athletic Information and Achievements

Team name, Position, Level of play, Jersey number, Awards, Rankings etc…

• Highlight video

If you have a highlight video include the link! Coaches are heavily depending on highlight video during this time so if you have a highlight reel you have a much better chance of being seen.

• Contact information

Your personal contact information such as email, phone number, coach’s email and phone number should be included.
