FRANCHISE OWNERSHIP
The interest in athletic scouting at the high
school level for college sports is becoming
increasingly popular. In fact, for someone
looking for a good business opportunity,
franchise, or business investment, an
established scouting service or recruiting
service may be a smart investment. Recruiting
for college sports is big business whether
you’re talking about football, basketball,
baseball, or some of the minor sports like
softball, soccer, volleyball, and golf. For the
high school athlete who wants to play college
sports and have an opportunity for a college
scholarship, he or she is now often turning to
an expert for help. College scholarships are not
easy to get and high school athletes who are
considered college prospects are finding that a
sports marketing professional is more help than
the high school coach or the college coach.
We are registered with the NCAA to hold sanction
events and assist student athletes in achieving
their goals in furthering their education and
athletics at the colligate level. We attempt to
instill the idea that their talents must be used
as merely a tool to guide them from their
adolescence to adulthood through the completion
of a college degree.

advisors to aid a student in the search for

protected web-based application containing and
covering all aspects of the student athlete’s
academic and athletic information. Each site is
individually designed for any given student
athlete to be evaluated by all colligate
coaches.
5. Finally, our staff is equipped to help one
evaluate their academic and athletic
achievements and match them with colleges that
best fit their profile. It is our goal to aid

Student athlete
recruiting at the high school level is not only
exciting but it is also big business. The
success of college athletic programs, in all
sports and at all levels, is directly related to
the kinds of prospects each college recruits.
Recruiting is the key element in college
athletics. Finding and getting complete scouting
information on all the best prospects for their
individual programs could be the most important
part of a college coach's job. However, all
coaches are severely restricted in their
recruiting efforts because of NCAA rules,
limited recruiting budgets, manpower and time
constraints. This is where our company, The
Highlight Reel, Inc., comes into the picture. We
are a professional scouting organization that
locates and gathers information on potential
college athletic student athletes. We provide
this information, free of charge, to all the
colleges in the country that offer athletic
programs for every sport, both male and female.
This is an invaluable service to college coaches
and an important part of college recruiting.
However, our main mission is to help all
student-athletes to get recognized and evaluated
by all the nation's colleges. Whether it is
division 1, 2, 3, the NAIA or the NJCAA; we
provide extensive scouting services to these
athletes and we promote their abilities and
qualifications to the college coaches. This
ensures that they will not be overlooked but it
also gives these kids a distinct advantage over
the other prospects who are competing for the
same potential scholarship offers. The
individual families who enroll in our college
athletic promotional program pay us a fee. This
is where our income comes from. Our organization
is divided up into territories depending on the
size of the state so that we can cover regions
throughout the country when providing our
services to the colleges and to the prospects
who want to participate in college athletics. We
license these exclusive territories to
individuals who then become the owners of our
business in their licensed area. Our network of
licensee/owners work together with our home
office to provide high school kids the
opportunity to play college sports and to get
potential scholarship money to complete their
college education. It's a wonderful business
with no downsides.

"We would highly recommend using The Highlight Reel for your athletes recruiting web-site. Dominick and his company created a very professional web-site for our daughter and when it went live he sent emails to school all over the United States. The feedback we received from college coaches was amazing and we heard from coaches all over the country. Not only did The Highlight Reel create a professional web-site for us, he helped our daughter prep for interviews with coaches, was available during the daytime and evening for any questions we had, and for a very reasonable fee will prepare your FAFSA paperwork if you decide to apply. Dominick was instrumental in our daughter receiving offers from colleges that would never have known about her – we high recommend him! Dominick can add our daughter to his list of kids who are living their dream of playing a college sport. Our daughter will be playing Division II basketball on a sports and academic scholarship………thank you!!!"

"Dominick Ferraro and the staff at The Highlight Reel do a great job at giving a personal relationship with each and every client as well as a college coach. The systems they have put in place for a student athlete is unique and very convenient for us, the college coach as well as the family involved in the recruiting process. I have had Dom down to my events at APD and our parents had nothing but great reviews on his company. The thing I liked most about his company is that no matter what. He keeps his mission statement as his priority which is helping student/athletes and their families."
-Division 1 Assistant Baseball Coach
Working for The Highlight Reel has been a privilege and an experience for for me. Firstly, it has come to my attention that there are people in this world who love what they do. Dominick Ferraro, CEO, has made it clear to me what it means to be passionate about what one does for a living. The environment constantly consists of groups of people wanting to help the next generation better themselves not only athletically, but more importantly, in continuing their education. Whether it be with other THR employees, or with coaches and parents at games, practices, showcases, and tournaments, I am constantly surrounded by genuine individuals offering their time for these young student athletes. At the end of the day, whether I leave work with a new client or had just helped a student or parent with some helpful advise, there is always a sense of fulfillment.
