How To Email A College Coach About A Visit. Welcome to soccernation’s “ask the college coach” column. For example, d3 colleges do not give out athletic scholarships so there’s no point in asking about them.
Don’t forget your contact information. Email is an easy way to say hello to a coach and to learn about a team. They will want to make sure that all of the information they have given you (the athlete), through text message, mail, email, phone and personal visit, is conveyed to your family.
It is important to be direct and say this near the beginning as this is the purpose of your message.
Dear coach _____ i hope this correspondence finds you well. Don’t expect a reply if you’re a sophomore as college coaches cannot reply (per ncaa rules). These questions won’t be relevant for all sports or all colleges. If a college coach takes the time to write you a letter by hand, mentioning specifics about you or how you could enhance their program, that is a great sign.
