The Get Seen Playbook: Volleyball Edition

The Get Seen Playbook is a complete, downloadable system for leveraging AI to build, feed, and manage your college volleyball recruiting pipeline.

“Going into AAU Nationals, she had 3 interactions from 2 schools on her University Athlete profile... Post tournament she has over 200 interactions on University Athlete from 30 schools and the contact has continued! She now talks regularly with several coaches, their players and will be attending player practices post high school season to make her final decision to where she commits to play collegiate volleyball.”

— Lyndsay, parent of a 2027 DS/RS

“The playbook helped us write her story in such a way that we could not do ourselves. The emails were sent with nervousness and uncertainty, but responses started coming back... Day one of AAUs, my daughter takes the court and I see the coaches we emailed courtside watching her. It was working.”

— Lyndsay, parent of a 2027 DS/RS

Who This Is For

Volleyball families who want to run their recruiting process like a system, not a scramble.

If you are spending hours researching programs, rewriting the same emails, losing track of who you have contacted, or staring at a blank screen trying to figure out what to say next — this playbook fixes all of that.

You do not need to be a tech person. You do not need to already know how to use AI. The guide walks you through everything from scratch.

What’s included:

•    The Complete Setup Guide — start here; walks you through getting set up in Claude (you choose Cowork or the Project-Based path in the Claude app or any browser) and building your recruiting workspace.

•    The Get Seen Playbook Guide — from first contact to active pipeline management

•    The Prompt Library — 25+ prompts covering every phase of the recruiting process, from setup to schedule graphics

•    The Email Template Library — 13+ real email templates based on actual emails sent to real college coaches

•    The Pipeline Tracker — every school, every contact, every status, organized

•    The Quick Reference Guide — every template and prompt, organized by situation

•    BONUS: Working with Claude Companion Guide — the habits and mechanics that make the system run the way you would

•    BONUS: Sample Emails — the templates as they were actually sent, pulled from a live recruiting process, with names and identifying details redacted

Works for any collegiate path: D1, D2, D3, NAIA, JUCO.

Built by a volleyball parent and lawyer who learned AI from scratch, needed this system, couldn’t find it, and built it.

This is not a shortcut.

Your athlete’s voice, your judgment on fit, eyes on every email before it sends — that’s the split that makes it work. AI handles the volume and the research. You handle the call.

What’s Inside?

The Foundation

Before anything else, you set up your Claude Project — the workspace that makes everything run. The Cowork plugin or one setup prompt on the Project-Based path writes your project instructions for you. This is where Claude learns your athlete. Do this first. Everything else runs on top of it. A paid Claude plan is recommended — free Claude has usage limits that will slow the system down. If you are using Cowork, a paid plan is required. The Claude account must be created by a parent or guardian 18 or older.

The Guide

A step-by-step framework organized in five phases, from the important questions every family needs to answer before researching a single school through active pipeline management.

•    Phase 1: The questions every family needs to answer before researching a single school.

•    Phase 2: Build the document that makes AI work for your athlete specifically.

•    Phase 3: Research programs, identify gaps, and build a list that matches your athlete’s profile.

•    Phase 4: Run outreach at volume — everything before and after every tournament.

•    Phase 5: Manage every school, contact, and follow-up in one place.

The Prompt Library

25+ fully executable prompts organized by phase. You never copy and paste them: tell Claude which one to run, by its code or in plain words. They handle the setup, the research, the drafting, the follow-up routing, and everything before and after every tournament, down to a schedule graphic built from your athlete's media day photo for Instagram and coach emails. Built and tested on multiple live recruiting processes. You run the prompts. Claude does the work. You review before anything goes out.

The Email Template Library

13+ real templates pulled from real sent emails, refined through hundreds of iterations. They cover every moment in the recruiting conversation:

•    First contact with a school (cold, tournament, social media, and referral variations)

•    Re-engaging coaches you have not emailed in a while

•    Responding when a coach writes back — whatever they said

•    Tournament schedule shares and post-tournament recaps

•    Pre-camp and post-camp follow-up

•    Post-call and post-visit thank yous

•    High school season updates to coaches already watching

Every template is personalized to your athlete when you run it. Nothing goes out until you’ve read it.

The Pipeline Tracker

The actual spreadsheet running live college recruiting processes right now. Tracks outreach status, coach responses, tournament visibility, follow-up timing, and program notes — all in one place.

The Quick Reference Guide

Every template and prompt on one cheat sheet, organized by when to use them. Pull it up when you know what situation you’re in but can’t remember the code. Works alongside the full library — not a replacement for it.

BONUS: Working with Claude Companion Guide

The practical AI layer the Guide does not cover. 11 habits for working with Claude the way it actually works, including real pushback exchanges — before and after — showing exactly what to do when it gets something wrong. Plus a Cowork mechanics appendix.

BONUS: Sample Emails



The templates as they were actually sent. Real outreach from a live recruiting process — subject lines, greetings, film links, sign-offs — with names and identifying details redacted. When you are staring at a blank draft wondering whether yours sounds right, this is what right looked like in practice.

Why It Works

Most guides tell you what to do. This tells you exactly how — with the prompts, the templates, the tracker, and the workflow already built.

Every template came from a real sent email. Every prompt was tested on a live process. The tracker is actively running right now. Nothing in this system is made up.

You do not have to figure out how to leverage AI for recruiting. Someone already did that. This is the result.
