# Organization account types

Learn the four ProductiveRecruit organization account types (Club, High School, Recruiting Agency, and Club/High School) and how each shapes your setup.

Every organization account on ProductiveRecruit has a type. It's how the platform knows whether you're running a club, a high school program, or a recruiting agency. Your type isn't just a label: it changes what a few fields are called and how sports and teams work for your account.

## The four types

| Type | What it's for | Sport selection | Name field label |
|---|---|---|---|
| **Club** | Single-sport club programs | **Primary Sport** (one sport) | Club Name |
| **High School** | High school athletic programs | **Sport(s)** (multi-select) | High School Name |
| **Recruiting Agency** | Independent recruiting services and consultants | **Sport(s)** (multi-select) | Agency Name |
| **Club/High School** | Combined multi-sport club + HS organizations | — | — |

**Club**, **High School**, and **Recruiting Agency** are the three options you pick from during signup. **Club/High School** is a combined type used for a small number of existing accounts that run both a club and a high school program together. It's set up by the ProductiveRecruit team, not something you select yourself when creating an account.

## Choosing your type

You pick your organization type twice, once loosely at signup and again explicitly during onboarding, where a dropdown asks you to confirm **Club**, **High School**, or **Recruiting Agency**. That choice sets your account's type and the type of your first [space](/docs/organizations/spaces-and-teams) together. Most organizations only ever have one space, so this is effectively your organization's type going forward.

If you run a Club, sport selection is locked to a single **Primary Sport**, since clubs in ProductiveRecruit are single-sport by design. High Schools and Recruiting Agencies instead get a multi-select **Sport(s)** field, since one high school or agency commonly works across several sports at once.

## What's different for Recruiting Agencies

Agencies work a little differently than Clubs and High Schools because they don't organize athletes into teams — a recruiting agency has clients, not rosters. Because of that, agency accounts skip the "Create your first team" step in onboarding and in the [admin dashboard](/docs/organizations/admin-dashboard)'s getting-started checklist entirely.

## Getting your account

New organization accounts are set up through a **[demo call](/demo)**. Book a time, tell us roughly how many athletes you'll bring on, and we'll walk you through the product and get your account on the plan that fits. Pricing scales with your athlete count; see [Choosing a plan](/docs/getting-started/choosing-a-plan) for what's included. Bringing on 200+ athletes or need a custom rollout? Same call — large rosters just get custom pricing.
