Decision boundary

The athlete or family approves every outreach message before sending. The VA does not contact coaches independently or promise responses, roster spots, or offers.

Who this is for

Built for families carrying a specific part of the recruiting workload.

  • Families starting outreach and unsure how to organize a target list
  • Athletes with a long school list and no consistent follow-up rhythm
  • Parents who want drafts prepared but retain sending authority

What we need from you

Inputs the assistant works from

  • Athlete position, graduation year, film, stats, and academic profile
  • Family criteria for division, geography, major, cost, and program style
  • The email address and signature the athlete or family will send from

Inside the role

What your assistant keeps moving.

A focused queue of repeatable work, maintained against the sources and approval rules your family provides.

  1. College list research matched to your athlete by division, position, and academic fit

  2. Personalized outreach emails written in the athlete or parent voice

  3. Follow-up sequences on a coach-appropriate cadence

  4. Reply organization: flag coach messages for family attention

  5. Response logging and status dashboard updated weekly

  6. Re-engagement emails for coaches who have gone quiet

Working rhythm

Clear inputs. Visible progress. Family review.

Build your target list

We research programs that match your athlete academically and athletically, then segment by priority.

Draft outreach and follow-ups

Every email is prepared for athlete or family approval. No mass-blast templates.

Track and report weekly

You receive a weekly digest of who responded, who needs a follow-up, and which coaches have asked for more information.

What you receive

Deliverables and quality controls.

The role produces reviewable work, not vague activity. Every output is tied to a source, an owner, and a next action.

Quality controls

How accuracy and family control are protected.

  • No message is sent without explicit family approval on that specific message
  • Each draft uses verified school and coach information rather than a generic template
  • Every logged response is tied to a date, source, and next action

A realistic starting scenario

An athlete has 40 schools on a spreadsheet but has only emailed six coaches. The assistant segments the list by division and academic fit, prepares a first-wave draft set, and builds a follow-up calendar. The family reviews and sends each message, and the weekly digest keeps the quiet programs visible.

Common questions

What families ask before starting.

Does the assistant email coaches for us?

Not independently. The assistant prepares drafts and tracks replies, and your family or athlete reviews and sends every message.

Can you guarantee a coach will respond?

No. Response rates depend on the program, timing, and the athlete. The assistant keeps outreach consistent and documented so nothing is lost.

How do you avoid generic mass emails?

Every draft references the specific program, coach, and the athlete information that is relevant to that school.
