Understand that the college that is recruiting you will always interview you high school or travel ball coach about you
Your relationships with your high school coaches are therefor super important during the recruiting process
Treating them with respect at all times, regardless of disagreements is step number 1
Always Try
One of the first questions a recruiter will ask you HS coach will be “Is he coachable?’
Basically, he wants to know if you are willing to take advice or does your ego get in the way of taking instruction?
Take pride in always trying to work with your HS coach, give him your best effort, and if you disagree talk about it like adults
If you bad mouth your HS coach behind his back and undermine his intelligence by refusing to take advice this will hurt your chances of getting recruited
Don’t Take It Personally
Are you the type of kid that sulks in the dugout after getting yelled at by a coach? Or are you the type of kid that says “Yes Sir”, makes eye contact, and works harder?
HS coaches want the best for you, be motivated by their criticism, and they will have your back during your recruiting process
