How far in advance of a campus clinic should she email the coach?

DD, a sophomore, hasn't emailed this coach before. The clinic is happening in two weeks. A friend told DD she should send the email less than a week before the day of the clinic. Is that preferable? If not, when is ideal?

I've been having my DD (also a 2022) send emails 2-3 days in advance. If you send too early, they may not open it or may forget about her. You want her fresh in their minds.

My dd would typically send an email about 1 week prior and our head coach would call the college coach 3-5 days before The camp.

2-3 days in Advance is probably right. I know this is not popular but we paid $20 per month for Captain U. She would send emails through this site and it would email her back the moment a college coach opened her email. It also allowed her to upload videos and would alert her if a coach viewed her video. Some good intel for $20 per month ;)
