Duke University Women's Soccer Recruiting

Start with Robbie Church, the head coach. The women's staff is small, with one associate head coach and one assistant coach alongside the head coach, so the head coach almost certainly reads recruiting mail personally. Copy the assistants so the whole staff sees the same message.

As general context, NCAA Division I is the highest level of college soccer. D1 programs may offer athletic scholarships, and most D1 rosters are largely settled a year or more before a recruiting class enrolls. For a program ranked where Duke University sits, expect the staff to be evaluating early and hearing from many players, so lead with your strongest verifiable results and a short highlight link.

Duke University is a private mid sized school on an urban campus with about 6,442 undergraduates. At a mid sized school the women's soccer staff typically works with admissions but does not control it, so have your transcript ready when a coach asks. The acceptance rate is 6 percent, and the middle SAT range is 1500 to 1570, so include your grades and any test scores in the first message.
