The Recruiting Process is a classroom-based course created for athletes who are considering playing basketball in college and for the parents helping guide them through that process.

The class covers the recruiting timeline, what athletes should focus on at different stages of their development, how and when to contact college coaches, how players can market themselves and what families should realistically expect throughout the process.

Parents are strongly encouraged to attend with their athlete.
