Hey,
Regis:
What
do you think of this SPORTS SCHOLARSHIP GUIDE for high-school
athletes that tells them they better have a “Plan B”, a college
education to fall back on once they’re playing days are over?
"Sounds
like a good idea to me!"

This
is the
BEST DAMN SPORTS SCHOLARSHIP
GUIDE PERIOD!
Every female
or male junior-high or high-school athlete who has dreams and
goals of playing sports in college and possibly receiving a
sports scholarship should read this book so that they can learn
from the valuable advice and real-life experiences that all
these special people in the book are sharing with them for their
benefit.
This book
is very similar to our show the BEST DAMN SPORTS SHOW PERIOD

it’s about real-life storiesof people, it’s entertaining, and
it’s informative.”

"Mark
Bercik's publication is a
'must' for those athletes and students who believe a college scholarship
is in their future! It is equally important for parents with youngsters
who are participating in sports or excelling in their school work!
This guide is just that—a guide for the many, many questions
that parents have concerning college offers. And it will save
countless hours of searching for answers to those questions. If
you're a parent, you've got to read this guide!"
-John
"Cappy" Caparanis, host
of Tip of the Cap—award-winning sports talk show,
ESPN 1240 AM
"The odds of a high school athlete receiving a collegiate
scholarship are small and the odds of going on to play professional
sports is even smaller.
Let's face facts. Sports these days are about numbers and while
there's not a high school athlete who hasn't for a moment gotten
lost in the dream of the big time, whether it be the Rose Bowl,
Final Four or Super Bowl, less than one percent ever make it.
There are so few Derek Jeters, Jason Kidds and Tom Bradys in this
world and the few with that special talent don't need the help.
America's Complete Sports Scholarship Guide is for
the rest. It emphasizes that the high school student athletes
most important skill is not a jump shot or a fastball, but an
education.
Mark Bercik, who has gone through the process himself, relates
from personal experience and those of others, how to travel the
academic/athletic road from high school to college. The most important
thing he tells you is there are no shortcuts on that path. While
recruiting services promise to make dreams come true, they don't
have that power.
America's Complete Sports Scholarship Guide empowers
the student athlete with the knowledge of how to attract the attention
of the university and informs the parents of what questions to
ask that coach who comes into the living room.
The competition is steep and knowledge is power. America's
Complete Sports Scholarship Guide provides that knowledge.
It's a must if playing collegiate sports is in the future, or
in that of your son or daughter."
-John
Delcos, New
York Yankees beat reporter, Gannett Westchester (NY) Journal News
"The Sports
Scholarship Guide should be in the home of every young athlete
and on the desk of every high school coach, guidance counselor
and principal in America.
If playing sports in college is a goal or dream, then reading
and rereading this book is a must. It cuts through the fluff and
misconceptions surrounding a very simple yet misunderstood process.
There are no guarantees that come with this book but absorbing
the lessons from it will increase your chances of reaching your
goal of playing in college.
The Sports Scholarship Guide should be on the required
reading list for every young athlete and his or her parents."
-Tim
Povtak, sportswriter
and columnist, Orlando (Florida) Sentinel
"America's
Complete Sports Scholarship Guide is a diamond in the
rough. The guide hits a homerun with student/athletes as they
look to make a smooth transition from the scholastic to the collegiate
game.
Mark Bercik leaves no rock unturned in getting the information
to you from all different angles."
-Greg
Gulas, sportswriter
and columnist, Boardman (Ohio) News
"Not every high school
athlete is lucky enough to be a blue-chip prospect, bound for
a Division I
school on a full first-class scholarship ride. But those athletes
who aren't need not give up hope. Sports Scholarship Guide
is an outstanding reference and one of the most comprehensive
sources to help college-bound athletes achieve their dreams within
their means."
"When it comes to succeeding in sports, you need to know
and be well-versed in the fundamentals. That's what Mark Bercik
gives you—tips, suggestions, and coaching to help you not
only get into college as an athlete but also how to pay for it
once you get there and then to succeed both as a student and as
an athlete."
"SSG is a grand slam of a book, covering all the bases
and giving college-bound athletes the information they need to
know how to make it both as students and athletes, academically
and physically. If you're a high school athlete who wants to take
your game to the next level—to college, university, or junior
college—SSG is the book that will help you turn your
dreams into reality."
"When it comes to student athletes winning the college recruiting
and scholarship game, Sports Scholarship Guide is a grand
slam, touchdown, and slam dunk all in one!"
-Jerry Bonkowski,
former USA Today sportswriter
