    Women New NCAA Recruiting Rules

    http://www.ncaa.org/about/resources/media-center/news/division-i-council-adopts-recruiting-legislation So it sounds like recruiting at camps is out and official visits can start Junior year. Do we think this is going to change anything or limit early recruiting in any way?

    Parents Recruiting question- now with the new rules...

    do you think this will really change how recruiting for college gym is done? There has been a lot of talk around lately about the rules changing and how this will (might? should?) affect early verbals, but I was wondering what the community thinks it will look like IRL. Are there loopholes...

    Women Recruiting timeline table?

    I have a table that I pulled off chalkbucket a few years ago. Does anyone know where it came from originally? I can't figure out how to post the table here, but it recommended being level 8 by 5th grade, level 9 national qualifier or level 10 by 8th grade, etc

    So, D is heading into high school next year. Over the years, I have read a lot about recruiting for college for girls, but not really for boys. I have a few questions. 1. Is there anything he should be doing now to start the process? If not now, when? 2. What kinds of things should he do...

    Men Men's NCAA Recruiting Nuts and Bolts

    I don't know if there are many people on here with personal experience, but I'm hoping to get into the specifics of the process for boys. We have a lot of general threads that say "it's hard," and "start early," but I wanted to get into the nitty gritty if possible. So here are my questions...

    Off Topic Not to beat a dead horse...early recruiting

    Just wanted to share that the early recruiting phenomena, that has been the topic of many CB threads, is creeping into other sports (or maybe it's been in other sports, but keeps expanding). Just saw a 2019 baseball prospect (an 8th grader) verbally commit to Mississippi State University. He was...

    Women Early Recruiting

    There is so much talk about college gymnastics recruiting age getting younger. Does anyone have knowledge of how this process works?

    Recruit questionnaire

    Okay so I am really confused on what these are because if you go on a college website anyone can fill them out. I have read articles though that say only if you have been recruited. Can you fill one out if you want the college to notice you? How else would you get colleges to look at you?

    Men How does college recruiting work for the guys?

    It seems pretty straightforward for the girls -- get to upper level optionals early and make it to L9/L10 nationals and then just be visible and try to build up some mutual interest between schools/gymnasts. But since the guys peak later, when do boys really need to start being visible to have a...

    Women Former Coach/Owner recruiting gymnasts

    We recently (in March) had a shake up at our gym where the head coach/co-owner left. She took about half the team gymnasts with her and most of the team coaches. After a couple months of renting time at other gyms for her team to practice in, she recently opened her own facility about 15 minutes...

    A new gym has opened up. A few of my parents have forwarded emails that they received from this gym recruiting (maybe a strong word but saying stuff like, "best coaches, best equipment, "you should come here") Now I know that this is not illegal or anything but, for crying out loud...
