“We wanted a trusted advisor for our daughter as she navigated the college recruiting process and we found it in spades with Katie! She came highly recommended by my daughter’s swing coach as well as other golf coaches and industry professionals, and she did not disappoint. From our first interaction, Katie was professional, friendly and showed a genuine interest in my daughter’s success which carried on through the entire recruitment process. We always felt like we were her only client despite the fact that she represents dozens and dozens of clients from around the globe! The guidance and support that Katie provided to my daughter was invaluable not only to my daughter, but for me as a parent as well. I always felt confident that my daughter was in good hands and getting the best advice. I credit Katie with helping to make my daughters dream of playing D1 golf come true and would highly recommend her for other aspiring athletes!”
“Katie Brophy Miles was extremely instrumental in helping our son realize his dream of playing D1 college golf. She advised him wisely on his tournament choices, his outreach to coaches and his college selection process. She also guided us, his parents, through the complex and strategic tournament registration process, the college coaching network and the college team rankings. She was very available and hands on for our family. As a former college player and coach, she is well known across the country. Her reputation, her attention to detail, her character and her warm personality combined to make Katie one of our strongest allies and resources as we pursued the D1 college golf goal. Thank you Katie and Golf Globally!”
“I have known Katie for a very long time back to when she was a collegiate coach and have admired her passion for guiding student-athletes. Now as a recruiter, Katie has a strong knowledge of the process from junior golf to college golf. She knows what will get the attention of coaches and she has a strong sense of the right fit for both the student athlete and the team/school. I have been impressed with the communication I have received from some of the athletes that she works with. It is obvious they are being guided with the proper information and resources to move through the difficult recruiting process with ease.”
“Katie is excellent at what she does. I do not believe it would have been possible for my son to have achieved the recruiting success that he did without relying on her experience and expertise. Identifying possible “right fits” and learning how to navigate through an overwhelming process was made much easier with her guidance. There are so many aspects of the process that we would have not taken into consideration at all were it not for her guidance. I am so glad we did not do this on our own. Most importantly, she clearly has significant credibility with college golf coaches because of her background which really helped align expectations and facilitated the process. As an international family trying to navigate through the pandemic period, her help was indispensable.”
“We were so grateful to be a part of the Golf Globally Family. Besides all the guidance you provided for my son, the support you gave to me was amazing. I never would have made it through this process without you! Thank you for listening to me every single time I called in a panic of some sort! After a long recruiting process, we are so happy that our son signed his NLI and will be playing Division I golf at his dream school.”
“The wealth of knowledge that you bring and the insight you provide equips parents and juniors with the direction they need to pursue college golf.”
“I can’t recommend Katie any more highly. She not only knows her stuff as a former player and then coach for big time programs, but she is, almost more importantly, tuned in to how teenagers think (no small feat!) and what they need to hear.I felt like I didn’t need all that much help and that my son’s play would garner the attention. I also felt like I am decently connected in the golf world, but I was in no way able to help navigate the intricacies the way Katie does. Her knowledge and experience combined with an energetic smile and personality help coax out what steps kids need to do to make the jump to play in college - and at a college that fits their style and personality. Completely worth it!”
“Our experience as Katie’s client was amazing. Katie is very optimistic yet realistic about what my daughter could achieve from the very beginning, so we had a clear goal together. She has amazing connection with a lot of college coaches, making her a good bridge for transparency between the coaches and us. She is also very strategic and informative, which really guided us in communicating in alignment with each coach’s goals and style. We are thankful to have been able to work with her!”
“Katie is the best in the business! Without her, my son’s future would be in very different hands. We were completely new to the recruiting process and didn’t know how to get our son “out there”. Katie has helped us every step of the way from the beginning and helped my son’s dreams to play college golf at a great school. There truly is a school for every golfer with the dream to pursue college golf, but discovering these schools and making the connection is difficult to do alone. Katie’s connections, knowledge, and charisma, makes the process so much less stressful and more fun, and we are forever grateful for all her help!”
“The college recruiting process in every sport is very complex, extremely time consuming and emotionally draining. In our case we found a solution to streamline and organize our time and effort - Katie Miles @ Golf Globally.Katie is very well connected to the college recruiting world and is a very process-oriented facilitator. She understood our individual challenges and needs and focused her energy on targeting schools that met our extensive criteria.I can honestly say that her knowledge and guidance saved us an enormous amount of time, energy and potential frustration. I would recommend Katie to any and all student-athletes who want to pursue collegiate golf. Katie is dedicated, motivated and goal-oriented. My son’s aspirations for college, and being able to play collegiate golf at a prestigious institution were achieved through Katie’s hard work and dedication to a streamlined and time efficient process.Don’t try to do this on your own- it’s not recommended.”
“Katie is worth multiple times her weight in gold!My son did not have an offer to play college golf at the beginning of his senior year in high school. He has just started his freshman year at college and is playing D1 golf.Katie’s impressive resume speaks for itself, but what it doesn’t account for is her personal skills and finesse that enable her to tailor her program and process to achieve the ultimate outcome for your child/high school golfer. Having coached college golfers, and having played college golf, Katie knows how to motivate all types of personalities. In addition, she knows how to direct your son/daughter to communicate with coaches in an efficient and effective manner. She is able to establish a realistic list of possibilities and how to strategically communicate with college coaches in order to obtain the highest possibility of gaining an offer. Katie is well respected by her colleagues and her clients. She is strategic and transparent with both with the goal of finding the best fit which is ultimately a win for everyone.I’ve spoken with many parents who believe that this “getting an offer to play college golf” process would happen naturally based on their son/daughter’s performance and scores. Or they have inserted themselves in the process, but unless they themselves coached college golf, they don’t have the expertise to identify all the opportunities that would be a good fit for their golfer, and/or budget for college. For some of my son’s friends who had great skills, they didn’t achieve their dream of playing college golf. We were fortunate to meet Katie, and I highly recommend engaging her to help with the process of finding the best opportunity for your potential college golfer, even if they have been contacted by some coaches. It’s unfortunate that some and many of the expressed opportunities can disappear. I’ve told the parents of the golfers who my son has become acquainted with over these last 6 years of junior golf that Katie will turn over every rock out there and will examine the potential for your child, so without hesitation, I strongly recommend engaging Katie in this process.”
“We first met Katie Miles in Ireland at the Kerry Cup. At the time, our son Matt, a rising junior, had already begun the arduous college golf process, and we had been working with another individual we knew locally that helped run some New England junior events and worked the college golf circuit. Fast forward six months later, and we bump into Katie again. This time at the Doral Publix Jr. Golf Tournament in Miami. After spending several hours walking the course with Katie, I called my wife and said we needed to make a change. Katie’s knowledge of the process, the lay of the land, her understanding of the player’s mindset given her history and success as an amateur golfer, not to mention her connections, just added up to the right formula. Of course, once we made the switch and knowing our son’s recruiting window was narrowing, we couldn’t have been more thrilled with the results. First; she spent the necessary time upfront getting to know our son as a person, not just an aspiring Division I golfer. Understanding what made him tick and understanding his goals and objectives was very thorough and very genuine. Overall, Katie’s preparedness, organizational skills, communication and just calming approach during an extremely stressful time for both parent and player helped tremendously. Once we had honed in on several schools and the back and forth with coaches was happening in real time, Katie was always there if we had a question about what to say, when to say it, and how should we strategically approach this situation or this coach. The guidance and advice was invaluable and always spot-on. We can’t thank Katie Miles enough and any junior golfer would be very lucky to have a mentor like Katie. And yes, mission accomplished for our son... William & Mary 2024!”
“It has been a positive experience working with Katie and Golf Globally. You are a professional who believes in and loves your job more than anything else. As a mother, I was very pleased in seeing the way you took care of my daughter, and treated her as if it was of you own, helping her to achieve her dream in coming to US to study.”
“It was such a pleasure getting to know you and seeing how you and Golf Globally are able to appropriately and professionally assist high school students navigate the complex process of college golf recruiting. Your clear, no nonsense approach, and your ability and willingness to assist with introductions to colleges golf coaches was invaluable. Your knowledge of the various college golf programs and those which might be a good fit played a pivotal role in assisting my daughter’s recruitment to a top university. Thanks very much for everything. We look forward to staying in touch.”
“We were struck once again by your joie de vivre... everything about you is lovely, gracious, and caring. In every way, you give of yourself in friendship with genuine interest, selfless spirit and JOY. From your absolute faith and unyielding encouragement, you continue to inspire not only the girls, but also our families to pursue our highest callings.”
“Working with you on and off the golf course for over four years has been the greatest blessing. Your commitment to every individual is a testament to the investment you put in each and everyone, and as a result, you become our biggest cheerleader in life. You bring passion and energy with everything you do, and inspire those around you to strive for success. The genuine motivation you have to help people achieve the next level is why you have many lifelong friendships, and I’m forever grateful I was part of it. ”
“What you did to build the women’s golf team was truly admirable. Your vision and hard work really made a difference. I especially admired your ability to understand and communicate with each team member in a way that was unique to each one of them. ”
“I have known Katie for the past several years and know her leadership, guidance and personal skills will add great value to her new company, Golf Globally. As an attorney for similar type companies and a mother of one of Katie’s former golf team players, I can unequivocally state that Katie will be an invaluable asset to any student-athlete’srecruiting process.”
“Your passion and exuberance is infectious. Your desire to educate others with the knowledge you have gained as a college coach and collegiate player are both admirable and honorable. It was a privilege to be coached by someone with such a deep understanding of what it means to truly master this game — you taught me and my fellow teammates that golf is not just a mere sport, but rather an instrument by which we can learn valuable lessons and values to carry with us throughout our lives. You are a fierce advocate of this sport, and I can think of no one better served to help others achieve their own success.”
