In
today’s competitive world of scholastic athletics, your
student-athlete needs an extra edge to get noticed by colleges
and universities. As a parent, you want to open as many doors
and avenues for your child that gives them the chance to receive
the best possible education. Athletics is one route that undoubtedly
will provide your child additional opportunities to receive
such an education.
Athletes Advance is a new on-line service that provides
such an edge for your high school athlete. Our
program is aimed at Division II and III athletes who rarely
get the exposure of a Division I athlete. With Athletes
Advance, your son or daughter will gain valuable exposure
to college athletic programs across the nation. Our program
allows student athletes to create, edit, and update his or
her own student athlete online portfolio, search college athletic
programs, and connect with college coaches and programs they
are interested in. In the meantime, you can be assured that
there is a large number of college coaches actively searching
our database for students that meet their needs.
Benefits and features
When your child becomes a member of Athletes Advance, their
academic and athletic profile becomes available to every college
coach member. Unlike other recruiting sites that rely on the
student taking the initiative to contact schools, we have taken
time to build relationships with educational institutions and
have collaborated closely with their staff to create a tool
that enables open lines of communication that works both ways.
Your student-athlete can seek out schools and athletic programs
while being actively scouted by college coaches.
who are we?
Our staff is made up of
former high school athletes who wanted to continue playing sports
at the collegiate level. We found it very difficult to gain
exposure and connect with college coaches to find the right
program after high school graduation. Also, attending Division
II and III high schools, we did not gain the notoriety to be
recruited effectively. It is these reasons why we decided to
form Athletes Advance, a program that solves these issues for
college bound athletes. We feel that every student-athlete deserves
the same chance to get noticed.
How we are different?
By
giving college coaches the power to search the student-athlete
database according to their own specific criteria...
Where most recruiting services rely on you or your student
to actively pursue the college, Athletes Advance has taken
the time to inform coaches of our service and have given
them free access to our site. We feel that this greatly
increases the odds that your child is being actively recruited.
We took the time to research and collaborate with many
college coaches to find out exactly what criteria and information
they wanted to see in a student profile.
Two clear and open lines of communication are a huge part
of the recruiting process and our application makes this
process simple and efficient for both student-athletes and
college coaches.
Our “Stat Tracker” feature not only makes
academic and scholastic performance of your child available
to coaches but your child will have a centralized location
in which to maintain their game-by-game results. In addition,
your child will have the ability to compare themselves to
other athletes, both on their team, within their league,
and around the nation.
The goal of Athletes Advance is to make the process of
getting noticed a simple one available to EVERYONE. The
cost of many other recruiting services often seems far more
expensive than what the service is actually worth. For that
reason we have decided to offer our services for FREE.
We
are FREE for all our members and intend
to stay that way, so PLEASE
help us spread the word bylinking
to us!
