"We could not have navigated the recruiting process without Commit2Hockey and  Sabrina Rhodes. From the first consultation to the final decision Sabrina facilitated and guided us through the entire experience. Without her extensive field hockey knowledge and invaluable relationships within the Field Hockey collegiate community we would not have been afforded the many opportunities experienced.  Sabrina and the Rhodes have coached my daughter from the time she was 11 years old, just beginning, to where she is now soon to begin collegiate field hockey!  Sabrina has really developed a class A program- she can get you to where you want to go!"  ~Yvonne DiPeso
 

 "Choosing to work with Sabrina and Janice Rhodes was one of the best decisions my parents and I have made regarding my future! They are absolutely invested in all their recruits and committed to their future as hockey players and as people. I don't know where I'd be with my commitment if it weren't for Sabrina and Janice! Also, Sabrina has helped me so much with developing my skills and helping me prepare for USA selections/ training sessions. She's so good about refining small technical skills: finding a players weakness and making them their strength. I feel so lucky that I've had the chance to work with Sabrina and Janice and I would recommend them for anyone trying to further their hockey career!" ~ Natalie Machiran

 "Sabrina's recruiting service was a fantastic experience.  She was a huge asset in helping my daughter organize and navigate the entire recruiting process.  We loved that she guided her on narrowing down which college clinics and camps to attend and schools to pursue.   She related extremely well to my daughter and made her feel comfortable throughout the process.    In addition, her hockey training sessions are excellent and very advanced, to help players build their skills for the next level." ~Alison Eyre

"We would highly recommend recruiting services through Commit2Hockey. They provide honest, straightforward feedback to their recruits about college coach interests and also areas to focus on regarding skill development in a compassionate manner. They have a well established network of coach contacts which helps the field hockey athlete assess her college goals in an effective way. Most importantly, they helped our daughter find the right fit for both her academic desires and athletic aspirations. It was a job well done!"  ~Allison Frank

"We could not be happier with the level of service that we received from Sabrina.  Starting with the first assessment of Sarah's skill and style of play, Sabrina was able to begin identifying schools that were a good fit.  Sabrina's extensive connections with college coaches were invaluable over the past 18 months as we were able to get feedback after tournaments and clinics.   This feedback helped Sarah refine her training to improve her game while also identifying mutual interest between Sarah and specific colleges.  This helped narrow our list of schools so that she could focus time on camps and clinics with a high likelihood of success.  Sabrina prepared Sarah for June 15th and then guided us through the process of interviewing with schools, and scheduling visits, and then ultimately helping her with that final decision.  From start to commit it was a great experience and one we would not want to do alone." ~Tim & Chris Mudd

"The college recruiting process for field hockey was very overwhelming at first for us. But Sabrina prepared our daughter for nearly every situation that she encountered starting with the first emails she sent to college coaches. Before almost every college clinic that Ella attended, she would receive a pep talk text from Sabrina with encouraging and confidence building advice. As we ended the recruiting process being invited for a visit and meeting coaches, we were all prepared for every final step ending with an offer from a dream school. Thank you Sabrina for being with us every step of the way!"  ~Donna and Hank Stack

 "The college recruiting support offered by Commit2Hockey was instrumental in getting Riley recruited to play field hockey at Slippery Rock University. We learned early on that the college recruiting process was not going to be easy but the advice and guidance provided by Sabrina throughout the process helped us navigate the recruiting process.

She provided an honest assessment of Riley's ability to play at the collegiate level and helped us narrow down universities that had her major and also had a strong field hockey program. Sabrina has strong relationships within the field hockey community and leveraged those relationships to make sure Riley was being seen and considered by the schools that aligned to her needs. We wouldn't be where we are today without Sabrina and the services she provided.  Thank you Commit2Hockey for all of your support!" ~Tracy & Ken Cloude

"The recruiting process can be very stressful and overwhelming for athletes. Especially with the pandemic, it was hard to find playing opportunities and connect with coaches. Coach Janice provided me with immense amounts of help, guidance, honesty, and support throughout my whole recruiting process. Once you establish your end goal whether that means playing D1, D2, or D3, she’ll be determined to get you there because she truly wants to see you succeed and achieve your goals. Her network of coaches and players across all three divisions is vast and reliable. She practically knows everyone in the field hockey community which provides you with lots of insight and knowledge on what to expect. She was always there for me when I had questions, concerns, doubts, and helped guide me from start to finish. During the recruiting process, I found myself calling Coach Janice constantly when I was anxious about a call or clinic  or just needed to get my thoughts off my mind and she never failed to return great advice and feedback. I truly can't thank her enough for all the support, time, dedication, and confidence she instilled in me." ~ Ellen Ford

 "Having Sabrina and Janice help guide us through the recruiting process was a huge help. The relationships they have with coaches is great and their ability to pick up the phone and call/text to get an update, or clear up any communication was really beneficial. It was great showing up to an ID clinic and the Coach saying 'I heard from (Sabrina and Janice) this week about you'; it shows that they are advocating for our daughter." ~ Tom and Laura Frasca

 "We previously invested in a costly recruiting platform service that was more or less a hub for containing information about schools, templates, and very limited human interaction. This was not as useful to us as we would have liked. However, H2O College Recruiting Support Services provided us personalized attention, a customized approach to continue the recruiting process, and advocacy based on their knowledge of Gabrielle. They will provide you with an honest and respectful assessment of your skills, promote you and your skills, and leverage their credibility within the field hockey college coaching community to get you to the best place that fits you as a person and player." ~Rhonda Green-Bruce
