The athletic portfolio is a great tool to initially capture a coaches interest. It highlights your strengths and it shows your sincere interest to a specific coach.
It must be neat, colourful and easy to find important information. Make it eye-catching. If your portfolio is on the coaches desk with many others you want the coach to notice yours.

The portfolio should include:

• title page
• cover letter
• athletic resume
• status sheet of marks - available from your high school guidance counsellor
• reference letters - 2 coaches, 1 teacher
• pictures/newspaper clippings etc.
