Reply to "The role of the high school coach"

Son's talent was the most important factor, so he attended a couple showcases...and he played on a select team that participated in high profile national tournaments.
Letters & questionaires followed.
It may take some persistance to get the coach to fill out his part of questionaires & drop them in the mail.You and your son are the ones to count on. HS coach may have some input, and a network, but how extensive?

In all probability, he is only directly familiar with district talent, maybe area talent. So, too, with some colleges (usually D3 Jucos, lower D-1 4 yr. college )...Very few HS coaches have been around & have developed relationships , rarely you'll find one that's really interested in helping players & plays an active role, most are football coaches that haven't got a clue...
