[quote=Anonymous]It is possible, but it would be harder to get recruited.  Go to the college's ID camp and initiate contact. Then enroll at that school and just start showing up to pre-season training and practice.  This can work in D3.  There are numerous D3 schools with less than 28 kids on the roster.  IF you really want to be there, you can get your foot in the door that way.  Coaches love dedication and grit.  I walked on a sophomore in D3, practiced a lot, subbed on a few minutes here and there and got more play time each year.   Look for the D3 school your kid is interested now, see if the roster is full or not and initiate some contact.

Most of the crazies on their board think it's all about D1 or bust or an Elite Ivy League. I played in the centennial conference in D3 and it was a blast.  Yes, some players were obvious starters, recruited and had some benefits...and some players who wanted to be a part of the program were there and worked hard for several years.   No one from D3 played soccer after college in any meaningful capacity, but no one was really looking was really looking to do that.    [/quote]
