About Us

The goal of the Homeschool Athlete Project is to equip parents and athletes with knowledge, information, and recommendations for intercollegiate sports. Our mission is to educate homeschool parents and athletes, prepare them for sports at the next level, and help them connect with the colleges and teams that are the right fit for them.

Background

My name is Adrian Smith. I am a former Division I athlete, a homeschool parent, an assistant coach for a homeschool track and field program, and the father of three young athletes. As they approach college age, I am learning more about the current requirements for competing in college sports. This has revealed how daunting the eligibility, recruiting, and scholarship process can appear, especially to those who have never been through it. So, I started talking to other parents of homeschool athletes and became aware of two things. One, homeschool parents and athletes are not aware of the many opportunities that exist to play sports on scholarship in college. The second thing I realized was that the process itself for becoming an intercollegiate athlete can be overwhelming.

As a result, we started the Homeschool Athlete Project. Our vision is that it will be an organization that successfully prepares homeschool athletes for intercollegiate sports. Our goal is to equip parents and athletes with knowledge, information, and recommendations. Our mission is to educate homeschoolers, prepare them for sports at the next level, and help them connect with the colleges and teams that are the right fit for them.

Our Purpose

At the Homeschool Athlete Project, we are motivated by three things: our Faith, our belief in homeschooling, and our love of sports. As Christians, we feel compelled to help others where we can, in whatever way we can. Furthermore, as believers, we think homeschooling is the best way to prepare our children for the challenges of the world. And as coaches and former athletes, we believe playing sports is an essential element of a student's educational development.
