A small advising team. We guide families through college recruiting, one athlete at a time.
Flat fee. No long contracts. No pressure.

Before they advised families, the people on our team played and coached at
We keep our roster small on purpose, so every athlete gets real attention and every family gets straight answers.
We play a different position. Most families use us alongside a club program, showcases, or an exposure platform. We make all of it work harder.
We take a small number of families each year. The best fits share a few things.
Four steps. You always know where you stand and what comes next.
We start with a consultation call and an honest readiness review, so we know where your athlete stands.
We build your roadmap: realistic target schools, a timeline, and exactly what to work on between now and commitment.
We shape your athlete's profile and highlight film, then reach the right coaches with outreach that actually gets read.
We stay with you through evaluations, visits, and offers, to the right decision for your athlete.
Three pillars that take your athlete from unknown to recruited.
A clear, realistic plan built around your athlete.
We help your athlete get in front of the right programs.
Steady, honest support at every step.

We tell families the truth about where their athlete stands, even when it isn't what they hoped to hear. That honesty is the whole point.
A small team who know your athlete personally, backed by a network we bring in when you need it.

A former Division I baseball player at the University of San Francisco, Max leads every family's advising. He knows how college programs evaluate talent and what it takes to get noticed.

Michael runs onboarding, operations, and the day to day, so nothing falls through for your family.

Jake plays professionally for the Missoula PaddleHeads. He played at Tulane, and at Wagner College before that. Max's brother, and usually the first person your family talks to. He's living the path your athlete is starting.

Pressure preparation is recruiting preparation. Your advisor rehearses the coach call, the campus visit, and the offer conversation with your athlete, so the moment is familiar before it happens.
It is not counseling, therapy, or mental health treatment, and nobody at LaunchPoint is licensed to provide those. If your athlete needs that kind of support, we will give you the names of licensed providers in Orange County and step back. We do not provide it, bill for it, or take a referral fee.
Every program is one flat fee, agreed at enrollment based on your athlete's timeline. No long-term contract, and the fee never changes once we start.

We're small and personal. You work with one advisor who knows your athlete, backed by a specialist network when you need it. We're honest about fit and level, even when that's hard to hear.
No, and that's deliberate. Coaches want to hear from athletes, not services. Your advisor picks the coaches, shapes the message, and coaches the follow-up, so your athlete reaches out in their own voice.
No service honestly can, and we won't pretend otherwise. What we promise is an honest assessment, a smart plan, and real effort behind it.
That's common, and it's okay. Part of our job is helping families think clearly about whether, and where, playing in college is the right fit.
As involved as you want to be. We keep you in the loop throughout, and Concierge adds a parent-only channel.
