San Diego athletic recruiting
College Recruiting Help for San Diego Athletes and Families
San Diego produces a lot of good athletes, and that's exactly the problem: in a talent-rich area, it's easy for a good player to get lost in the crowd. A local advisor who knows the scene can change that, in whatever sport your son or daughter plays.
Money-back guarantee. $3,000 of it only when your athlete gets a roster spot.

Recruiting in San Diego is a blessing and a challenge
San Diego County is one of the deepest youth sports areas in the country. Year-round weather, strong high school leagues, competitive club and travel organizations and plenty of local college programs mean college coaches pay attention here. But that same depth means your athlete is competing with a lot of talented players for the same attention, at the same events, in front of the same coaches.
Being good isn't enough in San Diego. Your athlete needs to be seen by the right programs, for the right reasons, with someone credible vouching for them. That's where local knowledge and local relationships make a real difference.
A San Diego coach, not a national call center
The Athlete Market is based in San Diego. Chase Grant has coached in the San Diego area for years and is well connected at the collegiate and youth levels. He's a former Division I player and spent six years as the recruiting coordinator at Palomar College in San Marcos, so he knows North County, the San Diego Section and the Southern California community college scene from the inside. He's also a college professor, which helps when academics and admissions are part of the decision.
When you work with us, you're not handed off to a rotating advisor across the country. You work with someone who knows the local landscape and the college coaches your athlete is trying to reach.
Nine sports, one local team
We work with San Diego families in baseball, softball, football, men's and women's soccer, men's and women's lacrosse, and men's and women's basketball. Each sport has its own events, calendar and recruiting norms, and we build the plan around your athlete's.
Some San Diego athletes want to stay close to home; others want to go far. Either way, the plan starts with what's right for your athlete: the level they can play at, the academics they want, and the programs where they'd actually get on the field or court.
Find out where your athlete fits. It's a free 30-minute call with Chase.
The offer: $6,000, half deferred until your athlete signs
It's $6,000 total per family, in every sport: $3,000 upfront, and $3,000 only when your athlete signs with a school or earns a college roster spot. If your athlete doesn't get a college roster spot, you get your money back. If your athlete suffers a career-ending injury, you get your money back.
What we focus on for San Diego athletes
- Standing out in a crowded market. Clear film, a sharp story and a realistic target list so coaches know exactly who your athlete is and why they fit.
- Smart use of local events. San Diego has no shortage of tournaments, showcases, club events and camps. We help you pick the few that matter for your list.
- Every level, including local options. San Diego has four-year programs and community colleges within driving distance. We'll help you weigh staying local against opportunities across the country.
- The California community college path. Chase spent six years recruiting at Palomar College, so he can explain honestly how the California JC route works and when it's a smart move.
- The parent side of recruiting. Timelines, costs, financial aid questions and what to ask on visits, explained plainly.
Staying local versus going away
Many San Diego families wrestle with the same question: stay close to home, or chase opportunity somewhere else? Staying local can mean family in the stands, lower costs and a familiar support system. Going away can open up more programs, more playing time and a level that fits better. We help you weigh it honestly, by looking at where your athlete would play, what they'd study and what your family can afford.

What families say
“Chase single handedly helped my son get into college. He wasn't the biggest or fastest kid, but with his guidance and network it made a huge difference and opened up an opportunity that might not have been there.”
“We did not really know the landscape of how to play at the next level, and we finally found the blueprint of someone who cares and gave us that info in a genuine way.”
“This was super beneficial for my son as he really developed over the course of his high school career and received a d2 scholarship. I do not know where he would be without the guidance and expertise of a real college coach and former pro player.”
