Who it impacts: Rising juniors (class entering 11th grade). Why it matters: NCAA Division I &amp;amp; II coaches can: Call, text, or email you directly. Begin meaningful, personal recruiting conversations. Start inviting you to unofficial visits or discuss interest. &amp;nbsp; Key takeaway: It’s not just a date—it’s a green light for deeper recruiting contact. &amp;nbsp; 2. How Families Can Prepare (Before June 15) Here are 5 key preparation tips: Update your recruiting materials Make sure highlight tapes, transcripts, and contact info are current and professional. Practice communication Prepare how you’ll introduce yourself and speak confidently over the phone. Build a school list Identify 10–15 schools that match your academic, athletic, and personal goals. Write down good questions Be ready to ask things like: What position are you recruiting me for? What does your team’s depth chart look like? What is your recruiting timeline? Have a quiet place ready Find a calm space to take any calls, away from distractions or background noise. &amp;nbsp; 3. What to Do if a Coach Calls (During and After) During the Call: Be respectful and enthusiastic. Listen carefully and take notes. Ask thoughtful questions to learn more. Don’t commit to anything on the spot—just thank them and stay composed. After the Call: Send a short thank-you message or email. Talk with your parents, coaches, or mentors about how it went. Record the call’s details (coach’s name, school, what was said) in a tracking sheet. Use the info to guide future outreach and follow-up. 4. If No Coaches Call—It’s Okay! Don’t panic. Every athlete’s timeline is different. Focus on what you can control: Training, grades, exposure. Be proactive: Send emails, attend camps, share highlight reels, and introduce yourself to coaches. Stay encouraged: Lots of offers and opportunities come during junior and even senior year. Whether a coach calls or not, the mission is the same: stay ready, stay focused, and keep growing. &amp;nbsp; Was this episode helpful? Share this episode with a teammate or parent who needs it.
