See the recruiting timelineFill out Fairmont State University’s recruiting questionnaire
Almost every college program has a “recruiting questionnaire” (or “prospect form”) on its athletics website. Filling it out is how you get into a coach’s recruiting database — it’s usually the expected first move before you email. Look for it under the team’s “Recruits” or “Prospective Student-Athlete” menu.
Use your real graduation year and a parent-monitored email. If the form is broken, only open to older grads, or you simply can’t find it, don’t stall — send a short intro email instead (below) and note that you couldn’t complete the questionnaire.

Find the right coach
For a first email, the head coach (Alex Zaroyan) or recruiting coordinator is usually right — both are on the Fairmont State University women's soccer coaches page, with publicly listed emails and the source they came from.
Keep the intro short and honest
Grad year, position, club/high school, GPA, and one or two key metrics. Say why this school specifically — coaches can tell a copy-paste blast from a real message. The coach email guide has a copy-and-paste template and the mistakes that get an email deleted on sight.
Lead with film
A short highlight video (with a full-match link) does more than any paragraph. Put the link near the top so a busy coach can watch in seconds.
Send it from the athlete
Coaches want to hear from the player, not a third party. Email from the athlete’s own account and reply promptly when they respond.
