Emailing college volleyball coaches can be daunting and scary for high school volleyball players. My daughter went through the recruiting process, and emailing coaches was a huge struggle for us. One night after club practice I said to her, “You have 17 emails to get out tonight before we leave for the Spokane qualifier.” She said, “And I have to pack and do homework and…” We had not planned well, so it was a hectic and late at night!
As you can imagine, emailing coaches is time-consuming and stressful when you also have homework, club practice, weight lifting, studying ... whatever! It’s one of the hardest things about the recruiting process. If you can manage it, it’s a good sign that you can handle playing volleyball in college. Being a high school student-athlete and going through the recruiting process is like a mini-prep class for being a collegiate student-athlete.
