What Is an Athlete Recruitment Plan? (See a Real Sample)

Why the plan works

• Built around you — Every plan starts with a one-on-one advising session, so your goals, your marks, your budget, and your list drive the whole thing. The plan mirrors that conversation back to you and turns it into a step-by-step play.
• Four buckets, weighed together — Athletic fit, academic fit, financial fit, and geographic fit all get scored, so no single piece quietly holds you back.
• Your true cost after aid — We estimate what you would pay after athletic and academic aid stack, school by school, so you compare your real out-of-pocket cost instead of the number on the brochure.
• A verified target list — Every school is scored on the same four buckets and linked to its Streamline Athletes program page, sorted by who has reached out and who to contact next.
• Your performance data is contextualized meaningfully — Your verified personal bests are presented to you within our tier system, so you know your level today and the exact PR that unlocks the next one. Streamline Athletes’ proprietary recruit tiering system is used primarily for collegiate coaches to evaluate prospective student-athletes across event groups and was built based on historical NCAA, NAIA, and U SPORTS conference scoring data, World Athletes scoring tables, and recruiting trends. Knowing where your best result in your best event lines up compared to all track and field recruits, including transfers, from around the world provides understanding that a basic standards lookup cannot.
• Every level across the United States and Canada — Your plan covers the full landscape: NCAA, NAIA, and NJCAA in the United States, U SPORTS and the CCAA in Canada. We match you to the levels where you fit best and lay out the eligibility rules and the differences that matter for each, so you see every path worth chasing.
• You always know the next step — Coach-communication guidance, a season timeline, and a clear action list mean you are never guessing about what to do next.

What’s inside every Athlete Recruitment Plan

Every Streamline Athletes ARP runs on the same structure. Here is what you get:

• Athletic — Your objective in your event, your verified personal bests, the tier you sit at today, and the exact mark that moves you up.
• Academic — Your target degree, the admission bar at each program, the prerequisite courses your major expects, and where your eligibility file needs to be.
• Financial — A school-by-school estimate of what you would pay after athletic and academic aid, in the right currency, so you compare net cost instead of sticker.
• Geographic — Where you want to train and live, sorted from close to home out to the bigger moves worth the travel.

On top of the four buckets, every plan includes:

• Your target list — A ranked set of schools, each linked to its Streamline Athletes program page, split into the ones that reached out, the ones to contact through Plus, and your reach and backup.
• Coach communication — How to handle coaches, what to ask about money, and how to keep every conversation moving.
• A season timeline — What to do this summer, through your final fall, and into the winter and spring when you commit.
• An action list — The specific next steps, in order, so you leave with a plan you can run.
