It's virtually the exact same for athletes getting letters of recommendation from their club and high school coaches. <br /><br />As with the "popular" teacher who gets a rec request from everyone, club and high school coaches know each fall that they can expect to write a slew of recommendations. <br /><br />Athletes can make it easier by (1) giving their coaches a heads up well in advance; (2) providing a list of teams they want to play for, college coaches' names and addresses; and (3) a short list of points the club/high school coach might want to address in his letter. Here are a couple quick minuets we've posted on the subject: http://www.captainu.com/buzz/tag/club%20coaches<br /><br />Great insights! - AviAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
