For NCAA Division I and II, June 15 after sophomore year — before that a coach mostly cannot reply, however good the email was. D3 and NAIA have no such date. Silence before June 15 is a rule, not a verdict.

Enough to cover the range. A list that is all long shots and a list that is all safe bets fail the same way. We sort every school against your player's own list so you can see the spread before you send anything.

No. A blanket camp invitation is marketing, not recruitment — the ones worth the drive are the ones staffed by schools already on your list. We hold 1,692 and show you which of your schools attend each.

D1 is 560 of the 2,215 programs in this country. D3 alone is 819. "D1 or nothing" removes most of the real openings at your player's position before anyone has looked at one.

We read published rosters — 65,486 spots — and every school page carries the date we last read that one. Where a program hasn't published a roster we can read, it says so instead of showing you an empty squad.

You can email anyone. What you can't do by hand is tell which programs actually sign transfers — we read 59,306 roster entries to find the 186 that fill a fifth or more of their squad from other colleges. That's a list of staffs who have done this before, not a ranking you could get anywhere.

There's a window of about 30 days after the season, and a second 15-day window in May. You tell your school, and they enter you. The NCAA publishes exact dates each year and they move — we show you the last cycle it confirmed and link the official list rather than guessing at the next one, because most sites just roll last year's dates forward.

Not on its own. Since April 2024 there's no limit on how many times you transfer, and you play immediately as long as you left academically eligible and in good standing and you meet progress-toward-degree where you land. The eligibility clock itself was rewritten in 2026, though, so confirm your own count with a compliance officer — we tell you what changed and point you at the source.

Yes for the part that matters: every four-year program we hold is scored for you the same way. What we won't do is pretend to rank your current school — we hold no NJCAA program data yet, though we're adding it about a month after launch, and for an overseas club we say we can't read your level rather than inventing one. You'll see that stated on your score, not buried.

Who graduates at your position, how many players sit ahead of you, whether freshmen get minutes, and whether the players they sign stay — read from 65,486 published roster spots. Public rosters don't show incoming commits or portal moves, and we date every roster so you know how fresh it is.

It changes who is watching, not whether your player is good enough. A stronger league puts more college staff in the stands; it does not fill in a highlight reel or a position of need. Both still have to be there.

For a college list, yes — and we won't build you one. What is not too early is knowing which clubs near you play at the next level up, who runs them, and when they hold tryouts. That is the whole Youth Track.

The Olympic Development Program — the state-association pathway, and the one route in this sport that any player can try out for without being invited. We hold all 50 states, with the real tryout window where the state has published one.

Then use it as a map rather than an exit. 1,802 teams across 1,049 clubs, with age groups and named staff, tells you where your club actually sits — which is worth knowing even when the answer is "stay".
