How Upgraded Facilities Can Improve Recruiting

Successful recruitment brings a diverse mixture of competitive students to your institution, building your school's rankings and reputation while generating revenue. As your administration hones its recruitment strategies, consider the value that the athletics department — particularly the athletics facilities on campus — brings to the school. Upgrading sports facilities can yield immediate and long-term benefits.

Advantages of Upgrading Your Facilities

Here are a few ways that updates to your athletic facilities can have a positive impact on recruiting:

• Improve athlete recruiting: Student-athletes and their families look at athletics facilities when choosing between schools, so upgrade your facility to show that you provide top-tier amenities for hard-working athletes. 
• Build a winning culture: Investing in athletic facilities can attract top talent in multiple consecutive recruitment classes, and the success will compound as your school becomes a go-to destination for student-athletes. 
• Attract sports fans: Updating your gyms and fields and building a winning culture will establish your institution as a school fans want to attend.
• Increase your recruiting budget: Upgrades will help your institution gain consistent advertisement and sponsorship revenue that it can allocate toward recruitment. 
• Offer educational opportunities: Offering top-tier athletics facilities will create opportunities for students who want to embrace fields like digital media, sports marketing and athletic training. 

How Can Modern Technology Improve Your Athletics Facilities?

By implementing modern technology, you can provide the space for student-athletes to reach their full potential. New tools allow coaches and athletes to track statistics, review drills and develop strategies that propel athletes toward their goals. What's more, modern technology improves the spectator experience. Tools like high-tech LED scoreboards enable instant replays, seamless score updates, real-time stat tracking and more. 

All the while, these modern tools allow your school to stand out as a unique and professional institution. Digital products expand branding possibilities through customizable features and rapid programming capabilities. By upgrading your facilities, your school will reinforce its brand with potential students while offering attractive opportunities to sponsors and advertisers.
