How Does Florida Student Athlete Profile Services help you?

Trends in High School Athletic Participation: over the past 13 years, the number of high school athletic participants has dramatically increased. According to national surveys, the number of male participants in high school athletics has risen 22% since 1991. The number of female participants in high school athletics has also risen 37% during the same period. Additionally, the vast majority of high school athletes have plans of continuing their sports careers at a collegiate level.

Taking Action: The increase in high school athletic participation means that college coaches are being bombarded with more letters and telephone calls than ever! Unless you are being directly recruited while in your junior year of high school, do not assume that college coaches know who you are. Additionally, parents and athletes should not put all their faith in their high school’s athletic director or coach. High school athletic directors and coaches do not have the time or resources to focus on every athlete. Typically, athletic directors focus their attention on the "blue chip" athletes.

Florida Student Athlete Profile Services, Inc. is here to make sure that athletes who are not being recruited, and may not be "blue chip players," do not prematurely end their careers or dreams. We understands that it takes massive, consistent action, and a well-planned marketing strategy to help high school athletes continue their sports careers at a collegiate level. Our primary objective is to get an athlete noticed, and into college.

A. The Game Plan:

We work with each client on an individual basis. We take the time to understand what each client hopes to accomplish. After we know our clients' goals we put together a unique and specialized marketing plan.
