Swim Swam
Link: https://swimswam.com/
Why we like it: As close to real time information as you can get on all things American swimming.
Commentry on UK/European swimming more limited but all elite swimmers are on the radar.
NCAA Eligibility Center
Link: https://web3.ncaa.org/ecwr3/
Useful Because: The NCAA Eligibility Center ensures you meet academic and amateurism requirements by reviewing your transcripts and amateurism questionnaire. At some point in your journey you will need to complete your NCAA profile. There are online guides for this but it is a bit confusing and easy to get things wrong. If you need help please request a consultation around this so we can set you up for success.
College Questionnaires
A great starting point that you can do at any time is to complete the online questionnaire for the colleges you are interested in. They are time consuming and a bit boring to do but easy. Most just ask you to add your contact details and recent times.
We are currently updating our list of questionnaires.
Athlete Brand Sponsorships
You might be suprised that you don't have to be an Olympic gold medalist to get brand sponsorship deals.
We are happy to guide you through how to do this yourself. Select our one hour consulting option.
If you decide to work with an agent here are a few that have good reputations.
You will find they either charge a fee or take a royalty out of any deal you get. The amount very much depends on what you want them to do for you, how much you are prepared to do yourself and what you are looking to achieve.
