Methods Of High School Football Recruiting


by Sally Delacruz


It is a common habit for most football clubs to recruit high school students into their teams. Over the years, many talented students have been recruited by nearly all the clubs plying in the major league and even those in the small leagues. High school football recruiting is beneficial to the club, the students and the schools. Because of this, many schools have become dedicated to training their students I playing this game.

Many clubs employ varying tactics in ensuring that they recruit sportsmen into their clubs. They mostly get the best by sending their scouts to school tournaments to get the best players for them, conducting yearly trials and having friendly matches with schools that are known for producing good players.

Clubs arrange for friendly matches with high schools that are highly regarded in football with the aim of having the best opportunity to observe the players. Experts insist that this method is the best method for identifying good performers. The main reason for this is that it provides conditions that are similar to that of a real game. This, therefore, ensures that the students are tested on whether they can perform against professionals or can only play with their colleagues.

Another good method for testing ability is carrying out player trial. Trials are normally carried out in the home ground of a team. During this exercise, candidates are made to go through serious exercises and games meant to test their abilities. They do the same things done by professionals in the game. Those who do them well are recruited, and not those who cannot do them.

The last method mentioned above normally comes after scouting. Scouting entails sending out club scouts to find good individuals from high schools. They go looking for talents, physique and the capability to learn new tactics. Once they have selected good players, they arrange for their trials.

As discussed above, scouts are normally interested in talent, body strength and capability to learn new tactics. These individuals are endowed with the ability to pick out students who possess these qualities. Whenever they are watching a game, they do not look at any other things, but these.

Strength is the main requirement for playing this sport; he must be well endowed physical strength. This game uses physical strength more than any other thing, and people who lack it may not play it the way it should be. It is full of collisions between opponents and teammates.

Scouts also go for talent. Talent entails possession of skills and ability to unleash them with tact without struggle. A talented person, therefore, plays without much effort, and always uses his abilities better than almost all other players. Most often, they do not take long learning things that other players find problems trying to learn. This is due to the fact that they do not strain in learning the skill. In addition to this, the fact that they are talented motivates them to pay attention and work hard during training. Scouts are always interested in talent than any other thing.
