You can get noticed by college coaches by performing well in high school games and tournaments, attending college camps and showcases, and reaching out to college coaches through email, phone, or direct mail. It's also important to have good grades and test scores to show that you are a well-rounded student-athlete.

The best time to start the recruiting process varies depending on the sport, but most athletes start to receive interest from college coaches during their junior year in high school. It's never too early to start making a highlight tape, attending college events, and reaching out to college coaches to express your interest.

Highlight tapes and recruiting websites are important tools in the recruiting process as they allow college coaches to see your athletic abilities and potential. Having a well-made highlight tape and a professional-looking recruiting profile can help you stand out and get noticed by college coaches.
