What you actually get.
Four ways to work with us, from a free twenty-minute call to a plan that runs from sophomore year through signing. Every one of them is advice you act on yourself — we are not an agency, and we do not contact coaches for you.
How to pick one.
Most families should start with the free intro call, and a good number of them should stop there. If your athlete is a freshman and your only question is whether to pay for a national showcase, that is a twenty-minute answer, not a $795 one.
The paid work is worth it when there is a real decision with money attached: which level is honestly in range, which thirty programs to aim at, and which events on next year's calendar to book and which to skip. That is what the tiers below buy.
What none of it includes: contacting coaches on your athlete's behalf, submitting them to recruiting databases, or any promise about where they end up. Coaches want to hear from the athlete, and nobody who is honest with you will sell an outcome they do not control.
The tiers
Four levels of help.
Intro call
Free
Twenty minutes on the phone. We work out whether we can help you and whether you need us at all, and you get a straight answer to whatever is worrying you most right now.
What happens
- You tell us the grade year, the sport, and the decision in front of you.
- We tell you what we would look at first, and what we would not spend money on.
- If a paid tier makes sense, we say which one and why. If none does, we say that.
Recruiting Reality Check
$149
A 75-minute call plus a written two-page assessment you keep. This is the honest level read — the thing almost no one in the recruiting economy has a financial reason to give you.
What you get
- An outside read on where your athlete currently sits, athletically and academically, against the levels they are considering.
- What is missing from the current picture — film, testing, academic record, or simply the fact that no coach has been contacted yet.
- A written next-90-days plan: what to do, in what order, and roughly what it should cost.
- The two pages in writing, so the other parent, the club coach, and the athlete are all reading the same thing.
Best for 9th and 10th grade, or for any family that suspects the level they are aiming at may not be the level they are actually at.
The Blueprint
$795
The full plan. This is the tier most families should be looking at, and it is built to answer the expensive questions before the money goes out the door.
What you get
- Profile and video audit. Your athlete's film and recruiting profile reviewed the way a coach reviews them — on mute, at speed, for thirty seconds — with specific notes on what to recut.
- A tiered target list of 30–40 programs, sorted into reach, realistic and likely, each with the athletic and academic reasoning written out so you understand why it is on the list.
- A 12-month event calendar with specific recommendations — and specific avoids. The avoids are the part that pays for the tier.
- Coach-email templates, written for your athlete's actual situation, that they send themselves from their own address.
What it costs you in time
About two hours of calls and a couple of evenings gathering film and transcripts. The list and calendar come back within two weeks.
Recruiting Partner
$2,400 / year
The Blueprint, plus someone to check the work all year. Recruiting is not one decision — it is a hundred small ones, and most of them arrive with a deadline.
Everything in The Blueprint, plus
- Monthly calls through the year, scheduled around your season.
- Ongoing review of coach correspondence — what your athlete sent, what came back, and what it actually meant.
- List revisions as interest develops, or fails to.
- Text access through the event season, for the questions that cannot wait for the monthly call.
Best for 11th grade, where the calendar is dense and a missed window is expensive.
Multi-Year
$5,500
Sophomore year through signing. The same work as Partner, run across the whole arc, with the plan rebuilt each year as the athlete and the picture change.
What you get
- Everything in Recruiting Partner, for the duration.
- The target list rebuilt annually rather than patched.
- Offer comparison at the end, run as four-year net cost.
- Payable in installments.
Priced below three consecutive years of Partner because the work compounds — by junior year we are not starting from scratch.

Add-ons
One specific thing, on its own.
These can be bought alongside any tier, or on their own if that is genuinely all you need.
- Video review Your existing film watched the way a coach watches it, with a recut order. $175
- Academic and financial-aid fit analysis What each target program is likely to cost your family in real dollars. $250
- Mock coach call A rehearsal call with the athlete, then honest feedback on how it went. $150
Clubs and organizations
Working with a whole program.
Parent workshops — $79 per family. A session for the parents in your club or team: the timeline, how coaches evaluate, and where the money usually goes to waste. Run in person or remotely.
Club and travel-organization retainers — from $3,500 per year. Ongoing advisory support for your families, so your staff is not answering the same recruiting questions in the parking lot. Contact for a quote.
Our independence applies here too. We do not take referral fees from organizations, and we do not tell a club's families that the club's own events are the ones worth attending unless they are.
Start here
Twenty minutes, free, and we will tell you if you don't need us.
Bring your athlete's grade year, sport, and the one thing you are most unsure about. That is enough for a useful first conversation.
