Here are a few ideas that can complement athletic development:
- Personal Websites or Portfolios – A clean site showcasing training videos, achievements, and goals can help scouts and coaches see potential beyond the field.
- Social Media Presence – Platforms like Instagram and YouTube are excellent for sharing progress, training routines, and connecting with other athletes. But guidance is key — especially for teens.
- Searchability – A basic SEO-friendly profile or blog (even with help from a digital marketing agency) can make a young athlete easier to find by name, sport, or region.
- Highlight Reels & Analytics – Online videos combined with data (timing, stats, improvements) offer a dynamic way to track and present growth.
