This aspect of our events is the most important and the most frequently misunderstood. There are a ton of showcase events that say they will have 100's of coaches in attendance and constantly under-deliver… or put up logos/school names without actually having a coach registered to attend!
We continue to have coaches attend our events because we have created a lasting, amazing relationship with these coaches. In order to guarantee our coaches will be in attendance, we will often fly, lodge, feed, and take care of them beyond what any other event does. For this reason, we have coaches fly from all over the country to attend our events. Events will frequently promote colleges they have "reached out to" or "been in contact with". We only put the coaches on our registered list if we have had dialogue, sent them an attendee form, received a confirmation, and they have went through our system to register themselves personally.
Our Midwest Event for 2020 (in the middle of a dead-period and pandemic) featured 81 college coaches in attendance (socially distanced) on one field!
