National Letter of Intent Signing Ceremonies

National Letter of Intent (NLI) Signing Information

Student athletes who are afforded the honor of signing a National Letter of Intent (NLI) for scholarship to play sports at the collegiate level are highly encouraged to do so in a Signing Ceremony here at Caprock Academy.

If you're interested in having a Signing Ceremony for your student-athlete, please fill out the form linked below and our Athletic Department will reach out to you. From there, you will collaborate to plan and organize the ceremony.

For all official signings the school will contact the local media and invite them to participate,  provide the room, the tables and chairs.  It is suggested that the parents/guardians, friends, and/or family of the signee provide anything else that they feel is appropriate for the occasion. 

Ceremonies usually consist of a short introduction by a coach, for example. The student may speak if they wish but it is not required. The signing then takes place. Any media present will usually ask and questions at that point and take a few pictures or get some footage. The entire ceremony is approximately 10 minutes.

Athletic Commitments

If your student athlete is committing to play sports at an institution that does not offer athletic scholarships (i.e. NCAA or NJCAA Division 3), we would still be proud to hold a Commitment Ceremony for your student athlete, which will be similar to the Signing Ceremony described above. Please fill out the form below to schedule a Commitment Ceremony with our Athletic Director.

When possible the school would like to work with students and families and group signings together with multiple athletes if possible. For example, if more than one football player would be signing, we would encourage all members of the football team who are eligible to sign, to sign together on one signing day.
