Why Athletes & Parents Are Raving About Us

  • Marcus Yandall Marcus Yandall Committed to Elmhurst College
    I would recommend SportsForce to any athlete looking to play a college sport because of all of the help their service provides. SportsForce really makes sure you end up at the best-fitting school and provides you the tools and resources you need to easily make contact with the coaches of your choosing.
  • Jack Pharies Jack Pharies Committed to Centre College
    The best way to put it is that Sportsforce allowed me to control the recruiting process rather than the recruiting process controlling me. Sportsforce helps to not only level the playing field with their knowledge and guidance, but they help put the player in control of that process by giving the player the tools to target schools, get noticed by the coaches, and to get ahead of the recruiting cycle. –Kathy Pharies Mother of Jack Pharies
  • Ryan Friedman Ryan Friedman Committed to Hamilton College
    Chad regularly gave me advice on how to approach any aspect of the process, from skill specific workouts, to how to show myself at tournaments, to how to speak to college coaches on visits. SportsForce also helped me maintain relationships with all the coaches I was interested in. If I had not been recruited I would likely not have known about this school, which is going to be giving us a large amount of financial aid, which I may not have received at a different institution, likely several thousand dollars per year.
  • Jack Bodine Jack Bodine Committed to Haverford College
    The educational information SportsForce provides is an essential foundation for any parents of athletes considering college sports. Knowing the game plan before you start makes the recruiting process much easier to understand and navigate. Thanks for your professionalism, your comprehensive services, and your personalized attention. – Laurie Bodine (Mother of Jack Bodine)
