After going through the process of helping my son market himself to coaches and scouts I can say the biggest headache were the guys who would approach me and say they've got this great website where they upload my son's "Hockey resume" and tons of scouts and coaches will come knocking at my door (at a price of course).
Having an online resume is great as it is another tool you can use to upload stats and highlight videos etc, but it's definitely not something worth paying money for!
That experience has resulted in me making a website that is FREE for you to use for your kids. www.myhockeyresume.com
You can submit your profile info and I will put together an online hockey resume for you and send you the direct link so in the event you want to market your kid to a junior team or university you can simply send them the online resume link!
Thanks and best of luck to all!
