It is with great pleasure that I write a letter of recommendation for Tommy Biggs. Tommy exemplifies all the qualities and intangibles that any future college coach may look for in a player. Not only does he have the highest work ethic and talent but it is all the qualities combined that separate him from the masses.
I have had the distinct advantage of working with top level athletes for over 15 years at several of the best your soccer programs and colleges in the country. During this time could always easily pick out the players who display the intangibles that make for the most successful: the passion to "be the best", set goals, commitment and pursuit of excellence. These are the qualities that I see in Tommy and when you meet him you will immediately understand why he will make a tremendous asset to any college team.
It is without hesitation that I recommend Mr. Biggs to any college of his choosing. He will set the example for all future students to emulate.
Please feel free to contact me anytime if I can answer any questions regarding the qualities of Tommy Biggs as he applies to college.

Tommy was a quick learner, coachable, gets along well with his teammates and is a team player. He respects his coach, his teammate and the game; a model player in this area. He leads by example. . . . One of his key attributes as a player was that he was not easily discouraged. He asks a lot of questions (some might say too many questions). He stuck to it and made continuous and steady improvements. As the year progressed, he increasingly made critical saves for his team, increasingly earned his teammates trust as a GK and became an important and reliable asset we could count on. I have no doubt that he has it in him to continue to refine and improve his skills in the future and to become an excellent goalkeeper.

Tommy made the decision as a U11 player that he wanted to be a goalkeeper. From that point on he has dedicated himself to the position and the training to prepare himself to play at the highest level, to anchor his teams defense, and demonstrate his leadership both on and off the field. |
