TRN's Julie Knows College Recruit Videos


GET THE RIGHT RECRUIT VIDEO
TO GET INTO THE RIGHT COLLEGE

If I tell you my name is Julie and I recommend College Recruit Videos from HIGH-TECH TENNIS, you might respond with a HO-HUM. But if I tell you about another Julie (Julie Wrege) who recommends College Recruit Videos from HIGH-TECH TENNIS, I'll bet your ears perk up a little higher.

Who's JULIE WREGE? Well, she was the first full-time women's tennis coach at Georgia Tech (79-85, 92) and her two tenures earned her a spot in the school's Hall of Fame. She's also the first female to receive an undergraduate degree in physics from Georgia Tech and she later added an M.S. and a Ph.D. Clearly, this is one smart Julie...but the BIGGEST reason you should care about what she says is that she's also co-founder of Tennis Recruiting.net, a website created to facilitate the tennis recruitment process. I would say that 99% of our customers are familiar with this site! :)

We met Julie for the first time at a local tournament many years ago - probably about 2006 - and she immediately GOT it: "What you are doing is GREAT work! We'll be glad to recommend HIGH-TECH TENNIS!" We had no real idea where our journey would lead us, but we were grateful for her support because ALL support is WELCOME support, LOL, and we LOVE people who GET it!

Over the years, she has recommended us and we've kept in touch, occasionally crossing paths on the tournament trail. We're both interested in how we might join forces to really serve the junior tennis community.

UPDATE: We're attaching recruit videos to TRN profiles and, in the spirit of letting the players PLAY & letting the parents decide WHERE the players play, we're offering our popular video services at NATIONAL SHOWCASE SERIES.

During a particularly unwelcoming, unhappy experience in Cary at the NCAA Division III Tennis Championships (you'd think we'd be used to pushback - but you'd be wrong), we were surprised but incredibly pleased to receive this email from Julie:

Hi Danny and Julie –
I just reviewed and accepted a college video that you made, and it was really good. I am so glad that you are doing this for the players!
I know it takes a lot of work, but the quality certainly shows through! As a former coach, I can tell you this is exactly what the coaches want to see!
Best regards,
Julie
Sure, it seems that everybody can record video these days, but everybody cannot prepare a professional College Recruit Video! It is (and should be) short, but that doesn't mean it's unimportant! In fact, the video that gets your junior into the right college (not to mention potentially saving thousands of dollars in the process) could be one of the most important decisions they'll ever make!!!

"After all the time and money you've invested on behalf of your child,
this is the BEST money you'll ever spend to get them well-deserved exposure!! This is truly a great product and your satisfaction is guaranteed! We highly recommend HIGH-TECH TENNIS!"
Very Satisfied Parents of Junior in Duluth, GA

"I really like the way you do this video...
Having it online makes it so much easier for the coaches!"
Asst. Women's Tennis Coach at the University of Notre Dame

"The online college video from HIGH-TECH TENNIS has been a godsend!My daughter is getting emails from all over and we love having it online so we don't have to hassle with mailing stuff!"
Mother of High School Senior (and Repeat Customer Since October 2006) from Peachtree City, GA

If you ARE one of the top juniors in the country, coaches are probably already recruiting you---GOOD FOR YOU! But if you're NOT one of the top juniors in the country, you can still play college tennis...you just have to be smart about it. Just think about it for a minute. What are the chances that the coach at the college of your dreams is going to actually travel to watch you play??? Exactly - THAT is why you need a college recruit video. So why not be smart about it? Your first smart move is to contact HIGH-TECH TENNIS! :)

We use Dartfish, the world's leading video analysis software. Show the coach that you're a recruit on the CUTTING EDGE!!! And don't just send to 1 or 2 colleges...SEND YOUR VIDEO TO AS MANY AS YOU LIKE (at no extra cost) because you JUST NEVER KNOW. No matter what others might say, this is the very LAST place you want to pinch your pennies or submit something that's obviously homemade. You only get ONE chance to make a first impression - MAKE IT A GOOD ONE!!!


We CAN'T guarantee scholarships...
but we CAN guarantee your satisfaction...
and we do.

Just wanted to say that we used your College video service and not only did the coach like the video, my son is going to be playing for his #1 college beginning in August. You and Danny were so easy to work with and the quality was excellent. You also made my son look very good, considering that the video was shot just 3 weeks after his surgeon allowing him to return to play after shoulder surgery 6 months earlier. His game continues to improve and we still get comments from some of the players who are coached by the same person as my son on how good the video's are. Keep it up.
