How to Maximize the MaxPreps Platform
Roster Listings:
Make sure an athlete's profile lists every year they participated in a sport. A complete record gives college scouts the full picture of an athlete's career.
Having a photo, height, weight, positions, and class year are also important figures that college coaches use to help make decisions during the recruitment process.
Statistics:
Stats are a key part of an athlete's profile that college scouts can review. Entering stats also makes an athlete eligible for MaxPreps awards.

Videos:
Having highlight videos and game film is also a great way to gain exposure for athletes. These videos give a chance for scouts to learn an athlete's playstyle to see if they are compatible with the program.
Videos can be submitted on the Videos tab on an athlete's profile.
Measurements:
Add measurements such as height, weight, wingspan as well as personal records for weight lifting and agility. Adding these measurements give college scouts a clearer vision of a prospective athlete to see if they are compatible with the program.
