Gr 9 Up-This three-part guidebook was written to help parents, students, and high school coaches negotiate the obstacle course that the collegiate sports recruiting process can be. It discusses what questions should be asked of recruiters and how to ask them. It also covers the various aspects of recruitment, how college sports are organized, and a bird's-eye view of the process as seen by respected coaches. A proposed bill of rights for student athletes and a discussion of college athletics as big business are appended. While the prospective readership for this book is limited, it is a worthwhile addition to most libraries serving teens.-Carol Jones Collins, Hanover Park High School, East Hanover, NJ Copyright 2009 Reed Business Information.
