Hi, my name is Alex Swenson.

I help high school athletes get noticed, recruited, and offered, without wasting time, money, or years of potential.

Over the past decade, I’ve guided hundreds of families through the recruiting maze using a clear, step-by-step system that actually works. From overlooked athletes to college signees, I've helped them find the right fit—athletically, academically, and financially.

Whether your child plays baseball, softball, football, basketball, soccer, volleyball, or any other sport, the goal is the same:

To get them seen by the right programs…
To get on the radar of real decision-makers…
To move from “unknown” to “offered.”

This is the system I wish every family had from day one.

If you're looking for a proven roadmap, not more guesswork, you’re in the right place.

Let’s get to work.

Jordan Martinez, Committed to LSU Baseball

"As a parent, all you want is to see your child happy, confident, and reaching for their dreams. But the college baseball recruiting process? It felt like a maze — overwhelming, confusing, and full of uncertainty. We didn’t know where to start, what was real, or if our son was even on the right path.

Then we found Alex and Premier Athletes - and everything changed.

From day one, we felt guided. Not just by a coach, but by someone who understood the system inside and out and actually cared about our son’s journey. The clarity, the strategy, the communication tools — it gave us a roadmap. More importantly, it gave our son confidence.

Within months, he started getting real interest from schools that were a great fit both academically and athletically. The communication, the video, the way he was positioned — it all worked together. And now? He’s committed to a program he loves, with a scholarship to boot. 

Premier Athletes didn’t just help us get offers — it helped us get peace of mind. We finally felt like we weren’t doing this alone.

If you’re a parent who believes your son has what it takes but just needs the right exposure and direction — this program is the best investment you can make. It changed our family’s life."
