NCAA D1 Recruiting Process in Hockey - How It All Works

[@mehmd1913]

Great video! This video answered a ton of questions about the process! Thank you! So the next question I have is where do the coaches like to see players come from? Triple A, prep school, northern regions, southern regions?

Should you begin emailing D1 coaches as soon as you’re 15?

Would it be a good idea to not just reach out to D1 coaches but also D2 and even D3?

[@ahadvising8]

Depends on where you’d like to play. If your goal is D1, then working to get on the radar would entail emailing them. More often then not, they will come to you if they like what they see. But sometimes emailing can open new doors!

So if you are born in March 2008, you turned 15 this year 2023. So can NCAA coaches start talking to you Jan 1, 2023 or Jan 1, 2024?

According to the web, the rules for speaking to players are based on your grade at the current time. So the rules would apply in your grade 10 or sophomore year of high school.
