Event for Parents & High School Seniors (to be). (You must have completed your academic junior year)
California State University, East Bay, Hayward CA
Saturday, July 23th -- 1:00pm to 5:30pm
HIGH SCHOOL SENIORS and their parents are invited to attend the 3nd annual college recruiting fair at CSU East Bay in Hayward. (NCAA rules restrict attendance to those starting their senior year in the fall.) The purpose of this event is to provide Bay Area high school rowers and their parents an opportunity to meet coaches from numerous colleges across the country, and learn about a wide range of academic, rowing and financial aid programs. This is an excellent opportunity to make one-on-one contact with coaches. This is the third year and 22 colleges attended to make presentations and talk to athletes and their families. I have been running the same event in Seattle for 14 years and expect more schools in California this year.
Program
Introduction: Short presentation on NCAA issues and the recruiting process and a brief overview of college rowing
Presentation: Coaches are given 3 minutes to introduce themselves and for a short overview of their school and rowing programs.
