Help your girls' flag football players get recruited

A practical playbook for the coaches who see the work before a college recruiter does. Build a clear record of each athlete's film, position, and stats, then let her family control what is shared.

Which coach are you?

High school and club coaches

Use the steps below to help athletes build a profile, collect film, and give college programs enough context to evaluate them. Team coaches can also use the flag football scorekeeper and share public athlete profiles with family approval.

College recruiting coaches

NCAA, NAIA, and NJCAA staff can use the dedicated recruiting tools after school and staff verification. Search athletes by position, class, and location, then request contact through the family approval flow.

Four steps to make a player easier to evaluate

  1. Step 1

    Create a recruiting home for each player

    Ask the athlete and her family to create a free FlagPlay profile with position, graduation year, location, and a current photo. Families choose whether a profile is public; respect that choice when you share a link.

    Create an athlete profile

  2. Step 2

    Film complete plays, then make a short reel

    Capture the formation, snap, action, and finish so a college coach can judge the decision as well as the result. Keep the camera steady and show the athlete clearly. FlagPlay links finished reels created in NextPlay to the athlete profile.

  3. Step 3

    Record stats with their source

    Separate coach-attested game stats, scorekeeper entries, self-reported numbers, and hardware-timed combine results. A transparent source helps a recruiter judge a number without assuming that every stat has the same level of verification.

  4. Step 4

    Share a specific player, not a roster blast

    When a player and family want recruiting exposure, send a concise profile link with position, class year, strongest film, and why she fits that program. Confirm each school’s current contact and eligibility rules before outreach.

    Review recruiting rules

For youth coaches: start with the fundamentals

A player does not need a college-style reel in elementary school. Help her learn multiple positions, keep the game fun, and save full-game footage when a family wants it. As she reaches high school, use the grade-by-grade recruiting timeline to decide what to add next.
