Our Student Athlete College Prep Workshops are in response to a need to educate prospective NCAA STUDENT ATHLETES about what it takes to get into college and/or get a scholarship offer. Most parents and children are unaware of NCAA clearing house eligibility requirements. This workshop teaches young student athletes how to manage academics and athletics, how to market players and utilizing sports college scouting combines & resumes (what services to use and not use), sport specific clinics and workshops available, healthy living (life choices) and what it takes to make it to the pros.
