Answer 2

play in national events and do well

Answer 3

I'm D1 full ride tennis player.  You defnitely need to play USTA tourneys.  Play sectional tournaments and if you do well, try to get into some national tournaments.  Also make a video of yourself playing and send it out to coaches along with a bio about yourself with information about your academics.

getting a D1 scholarship isn't easy, especially since D1 tennis is being flooded more and more with international players.  

playing #1 for your high school or even winning your district or region doesn't really mean much anymore... sorry brahh, so start playing USTA tournaments.

there's also a website that rates junior players called

www.tennisrecruiting.net <---  a lot of coaches use it to monitor a players progress.

good luck

Answer 4

find a web site to put your profile on

or you can talk to the colleges in your area directly

Answer 5

Honestly... you need to drop high school tennis and start playing national tournaments.  National Opens, sectional tournaments, hopefully some Super Nationals, etc.  That is just for Division 1 though, not many D2 or NAIA schools send scouts out.  For those schools you will need to contact the coach and go for a visit.  The same goes for D1 schools, but they sometimes send scouts to big tournaments.  Good luck getting that scholarship!
