TRACK AND FIELD RECRUITING & SCHOLARSHIP INFORMATION

Our athletic scholarship recruiting service can help you when applying for track scholarships. It doesn't matter how good you are, to get recruited and be in line for track and field scholarships you need to tell the college coaches who you are and why you deserve to be recruited. COACHES CANNOT EVALUATE YOUR POTENTIAL FOR TRACK AND FIELD SCHOLARSHIPS IF THEY DON'T KNOW YOU'RE OUT THERE.

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

There are 271 division 1 and 148 division 2 colleges that offer track and field scholarships for men. A total of 5,303.7 scholarships in the NCAA alone. For women the total number in the NCAA is 8,510.

There are 252 division 1 and 101 division 2 colleges that offer Indoor track and field scholarships for men. For women there are 290 division 1 and 108 division 2 colleges that offer Indoor track and field scholarships.

The discrepancy between men and women is because of the application of Title IX. Cross country and Track are considered one sport by many colleges so coaches tend to give out more distance scholarships than field and sprints. They get more for their money - 3 sports. A typical mix might be 8 distance and 4 field & sprints.

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

The NCAA allows each division 1college track program 12.69 scholarships for men and 18 for women. In division 2 the ratio is 12.6 for men and 12.6 for women.

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

The college track recruiting process can be very competitive, most athletes have to market themselves. You can try to do this yourself or use our athletic recruiting service.

IMPORTANT: You are not breaching any NCAA or NAIA rules by using our track recruiting service When you apply for track and field scholarships.
