Send them videotapes, newspaper clippings and letters from your coaches, so that they are aware of your talents. It's important that you do this well before your final season, so that the coach at your preferred college can come and observe you in a game situation. There also are a number of athletic scholarships that are not associated with any particular college. Apply for the scholarships in which you've demonstrated an athletic proficiency. If you are Asian, African-American, Hispanic or American Indian, you may be eligible for a scholarship.
Numerous programs offer college money for members of federally recognized minority groups.
There are scholarships available for people of a wide variety of ethnic backgrounds from Armenian to Swedish. You don't have to be a member of a federally recognized minority group to win a scholarship based on your ethnicity. If you're unsure of heritage, check with your parents, grandparents or other relatives. Many scholarships are offered through local, state and national church groups. Also check directly with your church, synagogue or mosque administrator.
