Social Media

Social Media

During this day and time recruiters are monitoring Twitter, Facebook, and even Instagram pages.  Our social accounts can give recruiters a glimpse into who we are by the content we share and post.  You see it everyday in the media where someone, somewhere is apologizing for their content, however the cost for athletes is much greater.  Athletes are losing their scholarships, careers, and endorsements because of social media posts.  

We encourage you to take a look at your social media account to remove questionable content and stay away from posting it.  Your future depends on it.

ITS MORE THAN WHAT YOU DO ON THE FIELD

Recruiters are looking for players that know how to take instruction and criticism.  They want athletes who are coachable.  Here are some things to be aware of.

  • Body Language - How do you respond after a bad play?
  • Sportsmanship -- How do you respond after a teammate makes a BIG play or a bad one?
  • Criticism --  How do you respond to your coaches criticism and praise?
  • Posture --  When you enter and exit the field, what does your body language say?
  • Professionalism -- How you do treat and speak to trainers, fans, and others?

Each person we come in contact with leaves with an impression of who you are.  Make sure they leave with the right one.
