As a member of the Recruit team, franchisees scout local athletic talent at the high-school level and act as a "personal recruiting advisor." They provide up-to-date information to your athletes and act as a matchmaker with college coaches--and, therefore, potential scholarship opportunities. Young athletes who sign on with the program are included in a national database and college coaches are given regular updates on their scholarly and athletic achievements.
