Question
Well i'm 16 sophmore about 5'11 maybe 6 180 and I play linebacker, well I know I have what it takes to play at the college level, I mean like a legitimate D1 school, but my only problem is that I currently live in Canada ( used to live in texas) and the school i go to is very small maybe 600 students we have a football team and we're good i mean we would be maybe a 3A school in the states. But i want to know how do i get my name out? I mean living in canada compared to texas my changes of getting a scholarship or even noticed go way way down.  

Answer
Cameron, hello!

You need to contact the colleges where you would seek your degree and can play.  They will give you the specific advice.  I've attached a large number of websites for you to explore.  Do your homework and someone will give you the chance!



Take care,
