High School Football Recruiting Takes Place Early

By Linda Maynard


There are a lot of kids out there who dream of playing football in the National Football League. For many of those kids their dream may never come true. Not because they do not want it bad enough but because they just do not have what it takes. These choices, believe it or not, start with high school football recruiting.

Many people think that an athletic career has its roots in college, and for some kids that might be true. But for the majority of people who do make it all the way, it is high school that most kids get their starts. This is an age that kids turn into men and that they learn a great deal about who they are as an individual.

That is really the story of how to make it to the big leagues. The story of how other people can help. These kids have to start taking their dreams very seriously way before high school. They need to start being serious in middle school. They start playing in about 7th grade. But they can start earlier than that with pop Warner teams.

Once they are in Middle School they will have already gained a pretty good knowledge of the game. They will learn much more in school and by the time they get to 8th grade they will start to be recruited by high school scouts. These scouts will come to watch their games as much as possible and they will know who they want right away.

By the time the players make it to their high school teams the coaches will be expecting them. They will get a good start on their career in football and on their way to the big leagues. However they will still have a long way to go until they get there. They can still miss out as well because it all depends on how well they do in academics and the field.

Some of them can also see how much talent they actually have. Some of them handle it very well and are very humble and modest about their ability. Yet still others handle it all very poorly. The scouts will look for these things out of the players and unless the person is so good that they are above and beyond everyone else, these things can ruin their chances.

When they are halfway through their schooling they will be able to start applying for colleges. All of this started when they were in middle school and it was a long road to the pros but they still have to do a lot of work to get there. When they are on the field too they need to make sure the play their best because no college will want them if they do not.

High school football recruiting is something that starts almost immediately when kids start playing football. If the do their jobs right they will be on their way to a good career and a lot of money. They will have a great life ahead of them and have everything they want for themselves. There will be nothing they cannot have.
