The college basketball recruiting process has been around for decades, but is still a mystery especially to those going through it for the first time. Arizona Preps' goal is to help educate attendees on the ins and outs of the recruiting process, which in turn will help them make an informed decision when choosing which college to further their basketball career. Whether you currently have zero interests from colleges or high interest from numerous colleges, the Arizona Prep’s Basketball Academy has information that can be beneficial to you. Learn firsthand from people who have gone through this process themselves as a player and from others who deal with the process on a yearly basis. Participants will be given steps on how to increase their college basketball recruitment, assess what level they are capable of playing at, best ways on how to communicate with college coaches and much more. The Academy will also teach valuable life skills that will allow participants to be recruited in life for a career in the future.
The Problem We Are Facing
You are 1 of 8,500 (boys) / 6,500 (Girls) high school basketball players in the state of Arizona. The majority of these players share the same goal as you: playing college basketball. Being able to separate from the masses and gain attention from colleges can be a difficult feat in its self.
The Solution
Attending Arizona Preps Basketball / Recruiting Academy will allow participants to experience a personal hands on approach to the college recruiting process. In depth break down of discussion topics will leave participants (players and parents) with no doubt on what they need to do in their own recruitment journey.
About Us
For the past 20 years Arizona Preps has covered Arizona high school basketball and has established a basketball network and developed years of experience that is second to none. These resources will be the key factors in helping participants reach their ultimate goal: an opportunity to play college basketball.
