Hello Coach _____ :
My name is <Player Name> and I am a <Position> at <High School Name and
City>. I am very interested in continuing my soccer career and higher education
at <Name of College>. I wanted to reach out with a quick update on my
upcoming schedule and recent events.
I recently completed <List recent accomplishments, successes>. My next event
will be the <Las Vegas College Showcase> this weekend. I will be playing for
<Team Name> coached by <Coach’s Name>. I have included his information
below along with my resume and schedule for the <Showcase> should you be
interested and have time to see some of our games.
I realize that I am only a sophomore and that restricts our communications.
However, I am interested in learning more about your summer camps this year or
any ID Camps you have planned. If you can forward camp information to my
coach or directly to my parent’s e-mail address - <mom’s email address> - we
would greatly appreciate it.
I hope you are able to make some of our games during your travels this
weekend. I have included our schedule below if your time allows.
Thank you!
