The EventBeacon App provides student-athletes with notifications when college coaches view their information. Our product’s features and functionality have been thoughtfully designed to provide a more transparent experience for student-athletes and their families to help them make informed decisions throughout their recruiting journey.
Below are the actions that college coaches may take in the EventBeacon App leading to a student-athlete receiving a view notification. For information about what actions on the SportsRecruits platform trigger a view, click here.
What actions trigger View Notifications to student-athletes?
A Profile View can be triggered by the following actions in the EventBeacon App:
- Viewing a student-athlete's complete profile
- Viewing an athlete's video, transcript, or file
- Favoriting an athlete
- Making a 5-star evaluation
- Taking a note
*Note: student-athletes will never be able to see the evaluations or notes college coaches take on them; nor will student-athletes know that a college coach has Favorited them or that they are on their Watchlist.
What actions do NOT trigger a View notification to student-athletes?
A profile View will not be triggered when you take the following actions in the EventBeacon App:
- Skipping an athlete
- Viewing a team's roster
- Adding a student-athlete to your Watchlist
- Assigning a student-athlete's game to your schedule
What information do View notifications include?
View notifications simply tell a student-athlete and their family which college program viewed their profile. Each view notification is the same and states, generally, that "This University just viewed your SportsRecruits profile!"
We will never tell the student-athlete exactly which coach viewed their information, only that a coach from your program has viewed it. Additionally, we never tell the student-athlete which action a coach took that triggered the view.
When are View notifications sent?
Any Views that student-athletes receive from college coaches via EventBeacon will be delivered in a batched digest format following each day of the event. The digest will detail which colleges or universities viewed their profile during the previous day, as well as how many times their profile was viewed by each school.
EventBeacon Statement
Our mission is to empower student-athletes to pursue their dreams. As a company composed of former collegiate athletes, we understand first-hand the stress and anxiety felt throughout the college recruiting process.
With the tracking system, we want to allow as much transparency to student-athletes and their families as possible. We believe that transparency is one of the most crucial aspects of the recruiting process. We understand that a view does not always guarantee your interest in a particular athlete and may lead to a difficult conversation or email exchange. For this reason, we do our best to educate student-athletes on what view notifications mean and how they should proceed:
