Sample letter to coach
Mr. Jim Smith
Head Coach Men’s Lacrosse
Keene State College
100 Main Street
Baltimore, MD 21208
Dear Coach Smith,
I am a 6’2” sophmore attackman at Anytown Regional High School in Anytown, Maryland. I am interested in attending Keene State College when I graduate in the spring of 2014. As a sophomore, I started for our league championship team and had 37 goals and 12 assists. This year, our team continues to be very successful and I continue to be a leader on the field as well as in the classroom. I presently have a 3.4/4.0 grade point average at Anytown Regional High School. To date, I have earned all A’s in my junior year courses and I plan to take the SAT in May. I will have my college entrance scores sent directly to the NCAA Eligibility Center and my high school will be sending my transcript to the Eligibility Center once grades are posted this summer.
I am very interested in attending Keene State College because of its strong physical education program, internship opportunities and outstanding lacrosse program. I am very impressed with your reputation for athletics, but just as impressed with your job placement after graduation. I believe that my athletic and academic talents make me a qualified candidate for your program. My lacrosse coach, John Doe, has offered to discuss my athletic profile and academic standings with you. I have enclosed his contact information on my athletic résumé. I am eager to learn more about your lacrosse program. Please send me any information relative to Keene State College Athletics.
I have enclosed my athletic profile for your consideration and I would be happy to send you a video upon your request. Thank you for your consideration, and I look forward to hearing from you in the near future.
Sincerely,
Johnny Lacrosse
