My DD had an unofficial visit this past Friday with a D1 Group of 5 school. It was an unofficial visit but did the whole tour, talked with admissions, tried on a uniform, etc. During one of the walk arounds, I was talking with an assistant coach and he mentioned that he had every single one of my DD's thank you cards pinned to his cork board. He said that there was not a single other recruit that has sent a thank you card after a camp. I was blown away. I always wondered if there was any impact whatsoever to the emails, flyers, etc. This helped to confirm it for me. It's inexpensive and takes only a few minutes. My DD will generally thank them for their time and will make a mention of something specific to that coach or camp. It could be a particular piece of advice. Or a team motto that was brought up. Something that shows that she was paying attention and not just some generic thank you. For those 2026's and younger, I would highly recommend doing this. Combine this with a Save the Date postcard and you are sure to be memorable.
