What CourtGuide Does
CourtGuide helps tennis families understand the college recruiting landscape, evaluate their fit against college programs, and build a personalized recruiting plan. Our recommendations are generated from the information you provide (UTR, GPA, age, goals, region) and from publicly available program information about U.S. college tennis (division, roster context, academic profile, location).
What CourtGuide Does Not Do
- We do not guarantee any recruiting outcome. This includes roster spots, scholarships, admissions decisions, coach responses, official or unofficial visits, or any specific level of play.
- We do not communicate with college coaches, admissions offices, or athletic departments on your behalf.
- We are not an NCAA, NAIA, ITA, USTA, or UTR affiliate, and we do not represent any school.
- We do not provide legal, eligibility, financial aid, or admissions counseling.
Decisions Are Made by Schools, Not by CourtGuide
College coaches, admissions offices, athletic departments, financial aid offices, and university administrators make independent decisions about recruiting, admission, scholarships, roster composition, and team selection. A “Strong Fit” label in CourtGuide means a program looks reasonable to consider based on your inputs — it is not a prediction that you will be recruited, admitted, or offered aid by that program.
Independent Verification Is Your Responsibility
College programs, rosters, deadlines, division status, coaching staffs, and university policies change. Before relying on any CourtGuide information for a real recruiting decision, please independently verify:
- Current roster size, depth chart, and graduating-class openings.
- Application, financial aid, and recruiting deadlines.
- NCAA, NAIA, junior-college, and conference eligibility rules (including amateurism and academic standards).
- University admissions requirements, test policies, and major availability.
- Current coaching staff and program contact information.
Authoritative sources include each school’s official athletics and admissions websites, the NCAA Eligibility Center, the NAIA Eligibility Center, and direct conversations with coaches and admissions officers.
Data Accuracy
CourtGuide’s school database includes programs marked as “Verified” or “Estimated” depending on the level of confirmation. Even verified records can become out of date as programs change. If you spot an error, please let us know — but always confirm critical details with the school directly.
Use of Guidance
CourtGuide is best used as a planning tool alongside your coach, parents, school counselor, and direct conversations with college programs. Recruiting outcomes depend on many factors that no software can fully capture — including in-person evaluations, character, fit with the team, late development, injuries, transfers, and the coach’s changing needs.
Summary
Use CourtGuide to plan smarter and target better. Use coaches, schools, and official governing bodies to confirm what’s real.
