Field hockey is an equivalency sport in all three divisions. Some players get more money than others and pouting won't change that.

So, how do you score the most possible moolah? You've got to have your butt firmly in gear by your junior year of high school. Get good grades. Go to tournaments. Go to field hockey camp instead of hanging out at the pool all summer. A lot of D-I schools hold training camps for high schoolers over the summer (source). It's a great place to show off what you've got.

However…you shouldn't think for one second that just going to your dream school's training camp is going to be enough to get you a letter of intent. Training camps aren't like every inspirational sports movie ever, where an industry insider shows up to watch the mediocre jerk who invited them, but then has their eye caught by the unbelievably talented and pure-hearted protagonist.

That is not. Gonna. Happen. You need to let the coaches know you're going to be there.

Genetically engineer the flowers to be in the school's colors.

Do some stalking (but please, don't do anything illegal). Find out what schools you'd like to go to and send their coaches a resume of all the cool hockey-related stuff you've done. Send some high-quality video of your best moves. Send some flowers if you think they'd like that.

Once they know who you are, tell them what tournaments and camps you'll be playing at and invite them to watch. This part is not optional. Coaches only show up to watch the players who have reached out and proved that they're interested (source).

Be one of those players.
