How to get noticed? That is the million dollar question. First, you need to contact colleges in the US. You will need to market yourself to the schools. Let them know of your skills (i.e. kicking, punting, drop kicking, passing, tackles, etc.) Contact the football office of each school you are interested in and send them video tape. If your coach is willing to write a letter of recommendation, that will help open a door.
All colleges have websites and most of their athletic departments have e-mail address you can contact. Let them know of your desire and your ability. Sell the schools on why you will be an asset to their program. Some schools may allow you to walk on to their program or try out as well.
Best of luck,
