BUILT FOR THE WAY YOU ACTUALLY RECRUIT
You already have more names than hours. What you rarely have is a straight line from “this kid might fit” to film, verified numbers, academics and a way to make contact — without paying an agency for a list that went to forty other programs first.
Search, film, full profiles, your board and messaging are free for every coach, no card required, no paid tier to hit a ceiling on. Every athlete profile carries the same weight in search, so a late bloomer at a small school surfaces on the same filter as anyone else.
WHAT YOU GET
Search That Filters Noise
Filter by sport, position, graduation year, location and verified measurables. No sponsored placements pushing athletes up your results — the same search for every program, D1 through JUCO.
Film On Every Profile
Highlight reels sit on the profile next to the numbers, so you can evaluate in one place instead of chasing links across email threads and Hudl exports.
A Recruiting Board That Remembers
Save athletes, move them through your stages, leave private notes, and set follow-up reminders. Your staff sees the same board and the same history.
Direct, Documented Contact
Message athletes on-platform with a full audit trail. Request a profile update when film or transcripts go stale instead of writing another chase-up email.
Stats That Match the Sport
Position-specific fields for every sport — 40-times and completion percentage for football, splits and marks for track — not one generic form bent to fit ten sports.
Compliance-Aware By Design
Most of our athletes are minors, so contact runs through monitored channels with guardian consent on file and a record of every interaction.
HOW IT WORKS
Create your coach account
Free, and takes about a minute. Add your program, sport and title so athletes know who is reaching out.
Search and shortlist
Filter to the profile you need, watch film, and save anyone worth a second look to your board.
Work the board
Move athletes through your stages, add notes after every call, and set follow-ups so nobody goes cold.
Make contact
Send an intro or request updated film directly. Everything stays logged against the athlete.
Recruiting minors: what we ask of you
Most athletes on F1G are under 18. Coach accounts are verified against a real program, contact with a minor stays on-platform or includes a guardian, and every interaction is logged. We may review messages involving minor accounts, and we act on reports quickly.
Full detail is in our Terms & Conditions. You are still responsible for your own association’s contact rules and dead periods.
