Why it fits: your grades are right in their typical range, they need players at your position, and they offer your major close to home.

Why programs share it with their athletes

A recruiting resource you can hand every athlete, not just the ones college coaches already know about.

A head start on "where should I play?"

Athletes come to you with a realistic list of programs and a plan for each, instead of a blank page.

Help beyond your top recruits

Most athletes aren’t recruited by default, including JUCO players ready to move up to a four-year program. Matching covers D1, D2, D3, NAIA, and JUCO across 16 sports.

Special pricing for your program

An access code gives your athletes special pricing on Pro, it costs your school nothing, and the free plan is always available.

Athletes stay in control

We never email coaches on an athlete’s behalf, and we never sell athlete data or share it with schools.

What your athletes get

Each athlete gets matches, a plan, and coach emails built from their own profile.

  1. 1

    Build your profile

    Add your sport, position, stats, grades, and what you want in a school: region, size, and division.

  2. 2

    Get matched

    SmartMatch finds programs across D1, D2, D3, NAIA, and JUCO where you would realistically fit, with a fit score for each.

  3. 3

    Follow your plan and reach out

    Every saved school gets a recruiting checklist, and the AI drafts coach emails that you edit and send yourself.

Athletic steps

  • Fill out the program’s recruiting questionnaire, a quick form that tells the staff you’re interested.
  • Send the head coach an introduction email using the AI email generator.
  • Attend an ID camp, where college coaches evaluate players in person.
  • Once the coach replies, plan an unofficial visit: a campus trip you arrange yourself.

Academic steps

  • Register with the NCAA Eligibility Center to get your NCAA ID.
  • Have your counselor confirm your NCAA core courses are on track.
  • Share your transcript so the coach can request an early admissions read.
  • Start the FAFSA with your parent and compare scholarship options.
  • Once you’re accepted, sign your National Letter of Intent to lock in your spot.

Every school you save gets its own plan, and you check off steps as you go.

Hello Coach,

I'm a junior center midfielder, and last season I had 9 goals and 14 assists in 18 games and was named first team all conference.1

I have a 3.8 GPA and plan to study Exercise Science, and your Exercise Science program is a big reason I'm interested.2

Could you share your recruiting timeline for the 2028 class, and any camps where you could see me play?
