Review
Student-athletes receive a fine game plan on paying for college based on sports abilities and scholarships keyed to sports. Over thirty sports, from archery and wrestling to football and baseball, are covered in a title which tells how to win such a scholarship - even if you're not the star of the team. -- Midwest Book Review
About the Author
Penny Hastings and Todd Caven wrote How To Win A Sports Scholarship after they successfully developed a strategic game plan that resulted in Todd receiving multiple scholarship offers and ultimately attending Stanford University on a soccer scholarship. Based on their personal experience and extensive research, the authors wrote this book to help other student-athletes and their families wend their way through the often confusing world of college sports recruiting. Now in its 3rd edition.

Must have for ANYONE interested in sports scholarship,
By A Customer
This review is from: How to Win a Sports Scholarship (Paperback)
This was an invaluable aid in our recruitment process. It is a very easy to follow guide for letter writing, organization of schools, and user-friendly in it's entire format. While using this book as a starting place, it was necessary to find additional resources of information. But this was great to get us started.We have recommended this book to other sports parents, many have found it helpful in a very long, confusing process.

Exactly What We Needed,

This review is from: How To Win A Sports Scholarship (Paperback)
As the parent of a high school junior in the throes of preparing for College, I wish I had found this book 5 years ago. It is easily the best organized step-by-step handbook I've ever seen to prepare for scholarship applications. Many of the suggestions apply beyond sports. It especially helped me communicate with my son about what we needed to do.
I recommend it to all teens and their parents.
