fairfax station — A seminar to prepare parents and athletes for the college recruiting road ahead - complete with all its bumps - will be held on Wednesday night, May 23 at 7:30 at South County Secondary.
"Guiding the College-Bound Athlete" will provide information and topics for every student-athlete in middle and high school and their parents to educate and prepare them for opportunities and careers after graduation. Many student-athletes who aspire to play at the college level are not familiar with the ins and outs of academic requirements and eligibility as they need to be in order to pursue their goals.
"Guiding the College-Bound Athlete" is a program designed by Rick Wire, President of Dynamite Sports. The seminar will provide families with information about the availability of athletic scholarships and the realities of the college recruiting process.
Dynamite Sports Educational Recruiting System combines academic preparation and athletic training with marketing and recruiting strategies to navigate through the process. The plan provides direction to high school athletes and parents, and staff development training and resources to high school coaches and counselors to help all parties make knowledgeable choices and decisions in college athletics and recruiting.
Rick Wire or Coy Wire will present an hour-long seminar at 7:30 p.m. Interested participants are asked to come early, if possible, to receive a number of handouts and watch a pre-program video.
