Get Recruited - The Equestrian Scholarship Playbook
$97
Equestrian is one of the most expensive youth sports in North America — and one of the least understood when it comes to NCAA recruiting. Most families don't realize that college programs provide the horses, or that hunt seat and western disciplines recruit completely differently. This playbook gives you the exact roadmap to navigate the NCAA equestrian recruiting process, get in front of the right coaches, and compete for scholarship money at programs that are the right fit athletically and academically.
Equestrian families routinely spend $20,000–$60,000 a year on boarding, training, show entries, and competition travel — often without a clear strategy for translating that investment into a college scholarship. This playbook costs less than a single weekend at a recognized show — and gives you the recruiting roadmap that gets coaches to take notice.
