How can I join a college sports team?

March 12010

I have never been incredibly athletic, but I’ve been working out seriously for over a year, and have been taking up tennis and kickboxing and yoga as recreation.
I might seriously be wanting to join my college tennis or volleyball teams, but I have never played other than in high school gym class. I’m rather good at both, but how can I join the team when I have next to no real team experience?

try to find out when tryouts are and attend them. if you cant make the school team, you can try to find a club team or intraumural also, most schools have them for volleyball and some do for tennis

Are college sports good for your job resume?

February 272010

How beneficial is playing Division IAA (like I do as a freshman) college football to my job resume? Is it worth all of the time you put in? Will it really help me get a job?

Even though it does not add to your skills at a job (except if you work in sports) it does help build camaraderie with an interviewer, co-worker, or boss. I am a college student, and numerous people (mostly guys) have told me that during interviews they started talking about sports. Think about it — if you can connect with the interviewer about something you both like, such as sports you would leave a memorable impression and are more likely to be selected for a job than someone who has the skills but does not connect to the interviewer. Also, most jobs have sporting events (ie. softball, basketball, baseball etc). This is great way to get to know your boss or other co-workers (especially if they’re male) and could be essential to you being selected for a promotion, raise, bonus etc.

When you start to interview for jobs, you will realize that it is much more than hard skills employers look for (this is especially to true in competitive industries like finance, accounting, etc).

It is a double edged sword though, if you have low grades (below 3.0) I would say ditch the sports and work on your grades. This is especially true if you want to pursue something like law (in which to get into the best schools you need at least a 3.3 gpa). The recession is making the competition very fierce! I am a senior in college and employers are not hiring much and are very selective. Hopefully, when you’re ready to graduate the markets won’t be so tight.

I play basketball for College and I want to go to the Navy, so is it a good Idea to go to the reserves?

Yes, but you need to tell the reserve unit, you play college sports before you enlist.

They will have to tweak your drill schedule , during the season.

Is college sports better than pro sports because there not getting paid?

February 212010

I think in college there is more heart. Pro if you lose your still getting paid. I know that there are some players that’s not there for the money be what do you think.

college sports is another way for the players to make there case on how much they get paid for the next level. But overall id rather follow college teams then pro teams because there is no money involved yet. these colleges actually have to scout, mold, and fine tune the players they get to win. it is the real process of building a great team.
