some we had contact with, some we were in the area and combined trips. We were in Maine for Bowdoin and Colby, so I called the coach at Bates to see if he could meet. We just treated the visits as part of the extended tour and a meet and greet unless my son already had talked to the coach.

Since your son is a kicker, there are camps and showcases specifically for kickers. My son was a longsnapper and they go to the kicker camps. you can google search for them in your area. He went to one as a junior on the east coast. In this one…it was a 2 day camp, with the first day and a half for instruction, the second was a showcase for the coaches who were invited. It was held at Rutgers University and there were Coaches from all division schools. Some kids were recruited from there and some of the younger kids went on the coaches to be watched list. The camp was good and I learned an incredible amount from the parents there, who came from all over the East coast.
