Recruit Me Next claims to ensure that your child is exposed to various Universities and Colleges to warrant that they are not overlooked for scholarship offers. They also claim that "Whether your son or daughter is a Division I, II, or III player our #1 job is to expose them to all levels of play with the possibility of scholarship." With that in mind, we chose this service and paid $500 for the package that included a video.
After the fee was paid, there was no contact from any recruiter. Their online site states, "Our team of certified sports consultants will work directly with you and your family in order to guide, consult and place your child in a position to win."

This recruiting service used the monies received to finance their own daughter's college education. Most videos posted on the FB page are of his daughter and her accomplishments. DO NOT use this service or any other recruiting service as they do not help in securing any scholarships or placement in college sports programs. College coaches want to hear from your own child and do not want to receive letters or phone calls from recruiters. We were successful; on our own; in securing college placement for our daughter. This service does nothing but steal your money and use it to pay for their rent and their own daughter's college expenses. Unfortunately, we learned this the hard way and we actually financed someone else's college costs.
