SKIING RECRUITING AND SCHOLARSHIP INFORMATION

Our athletic recruiting service can help you when applying for college skiing scholarships. It doesn't matter how good you are, to get recruited and be in line for a skiing scholarship you need to tell the college coaches who you are and why you deserve to be recruited. COACHES CANNOT EVALUATE YOUR POTENTIAL IF THEY DON'T KNOW WHO YOU ARE AND WHAT YOU CAN DO.

Not all athletic scholarships are full ride like football and basketball, so called "head count" sports; most are classed as "equivalency" sports, like NCAA skiing. Put simply this means that coaches can "share" their allocation between a larger number of skiers.

This is good news for skiers. If we take women's skiing as an example we see that a coach can divide the "7" scholarships between a larger number of students. That could mean 12 partial scholarships instead of 7 full ride scholarships. If you are good enough of course then a full -ride scholarship is always a possibility.

The process of finding and contacting coaches and dealing with the rules and regulations enforced by the NCAA and NAIA is quite a daunting process for both athletes and parents. The use of our professional sports scholarship recruiting service is a must for all athletes who are serious about skiing at college level.

Many fine young athletes are overlooked each year because they didn't submit their athletic scholarship resume to the "right" colleges or left out vital information. It's also a fact that many colleges simply don't allocate all of their skiing recruiting funds because "suitable" athletes didn't approach them.

The NCAA allows each division 1 skiing program 6.3 scholarships for men and 7 for women. In division 2 the ratio is 6.3 scholarships for men and 6.3 for women.

As a high school skier you should be aware that the standard of skiing at college level is very high. I would recommend that you attend a few meet's to gauge the actual intensity of skiing at this level. Remember that only the absolute top skiers will be approached with offers.

Most skiers will have to market themselves. You can try to do this yourself or use our recruiting service.

IMPORTANT: You are not in breach of any NCAA rules by using our recruiting service when you make application for a skiing scholarship.
