With huge interest in College tennis and the uncertainty with COVID, our 5th free webinar on College Recruitment was particularly relevant. We had a great presentation from Dave and Mark, with a very informative Q&A session.

David & Mark covered:

  • Different divisions and the benefits of each
  • Getting the academics right early
  • How to add value outside of tennis results
  • The pros and cons of UTR, WTN or national results and how it’s relevant to recruitment

This webinar is suitable for:

  • Players who dream of playing US College Tennis
  • Parents who want to know more about applying and what to look out for
  • Coaches who want to provide extra info to their players and parents
