Set up the page, one short video at a time

Each video is about a minute and shows the real screens. The steps are written out under each one, so you can read instead. Start with the first and go in order, or jump to the one you need.

Recorded on the real site with a sample family. Narrated with an AI voice.

Sign up as a parent or as the athlete, and make the page in about two minutes.

The steps
  1. Choose who is setting this up: a parent or the athlete. Under 13 needs a parent account.
  2. Type your name, email and a password of at least eight characters.
  3. Type the athlete's first and last name, and pick the state and graduation year.
  4. Start typing the school and pick it from the list, so the page connects to the school's team.

03 Steps 2 and 3: Sport and first season

  2. Pick the grade, the year and the team name for the season.
  3. Choose the position (or the events, strokes or weight class for other sports).

  2. Add up to five. Mix a reach, a good fit and a safe pick.
  3. They show on the public page, in order.
  4. If a coach at one of them saves your athlete to their board, it is a match and you get an email.

07 Email a college coach

Pick a college and a coach, read the email we wrote, and send it from your own email.

The steps
  1. Open Write to a coach and pick a college. Your top five come first.
  2. Press Show coaches and pick a coach. The head coach or the recruiting coordinator is the best first email.
  3. Press Write to the coach. The email is written from the athlete's page. Read it and fix anything.
  4. Press Open in Gmail or Open in my email app. It opens with the address, subject and message filled in, and you press send.
  5. Come back and press I sent it. In five days you get a reminder to follow up, and the follow-up is already written.
