Below you will write a paragraph, in the third person, about your style of play and your skills. An example of a third person is:
John Doe is a great athlete.
NO: I am a great athlete.
This paragraph should only be three to four sentences long. It’s always good to somehow link something about your character and your greatest achievement. An example of a good paragraph is:
Coming second in the nation at 3pt% (NCAA1) last season, John Doe has shown his infinite reach and has proven himself to be one of the best shooters in the country. Although he is a prolific shooter, it is his general ability to score the ball and defend the opponent’s best player that is so impressive. John is one of the most professional and hard-working prospects on the market. As a captain over the past two seasons at UCLA, he has shown that he has all the leadership qualities you would want in a point guard or shooting guard.
Then write your statistics by year and school. For instance:
Career:
2000-2004: Paso Robles High School (Led team to 23-3 record as captain)
2005-2006: UCLA-6th man from the bench
2007-2008: UCLA- (NCAA) -Team Captain: 11ppg, 2.1rpg, 3pt 44%, FG33%
2008-2009: UCLA- (NCAA) -Team Captain: 15ppg, 3.7rpg, 3pt 48%, FG49%
2009-2010: UCLA- (NCAA) -Team Captain: 15.3ppg, 3.5rpg, 3pt50%, FG45%
Next, you want to combine a list of all your awards and achievements and place them at the bottom. Go ahead and be honest here, but fill it up with as many as you can imagine. That means if you don’t have any in college, use the ones from high school. If you have some in college, by all means add them. Highlight your greatest. If you have any records, put them here too.
On this page there should be an action photo of you and a headshot.
OK, WELL, THE FIRST PAGE OF YOUR SHORT SUMMARY IS NOW FINISHED ON THE SECOND PAGE …
