I have a question I have not seen a lot of information on and was hoping to get some input; that is in regard to being recruited onto a college team without a scholarship. DD may be in the very fortunate situation where she may have college funding taken care of through a family trust (assuming she maintains her academic, civic and extra-curricular status) and some residual military benefits I have.
My question is, would/how you change your recruiting approach if a scholarship is not needed? Assuming she met the skills, needs, profile etc. for a college and team, do you think it would lend any added appeal to getting looks from schools she's interested in? If so, would you mention this on a profile / info sheet or just wait for it to come up organically?
For those of you who have players in or through college, does being a non-scholarship player have any bearing on playing time in your experience?
