Ongoing Pastoral Care
To date, we've placed more than 35,000 talented young sportsmen and women at colleges and universities across the US through our tailored college soccer placement service.
Every year, thousands of student-athletes and their families come face-to-face with the difficult challenge of securing a place at university. What they often discover is that navigating university options is stressful enough, and adding sports into the mix brings it to a whole new level.
Even for those who do a little recruiting homework, they are often left with more questions, very few simple answers and an uneasy feeling they are somehow falling behind.
At FirstPoint, we understand what you’re going through. Many of us have experienced first-hand what the college recruiting experience is like—as players and as coaches. And that experience, combined with our advanced online technology, expansive college coach network and proven recruiting methods, helps thousands of student-athletes and their families take control of their recruiting experience.
Whether you are a nationally recognised player or aspiring local star, FirstPoint helps take the stress of uncertainty out of your journey by putting a plan in place to help you find the best options to fit your academic and athletic needs.
FirstPoint USA will typically start working with clients between the ages of 15-22-years old. However, it is possible to secure a sports scholarship right up until the age of 24. Student athletes will not leave for the USA to begin their scholarship journey until they are at least 18 years of age, starting either in the Fall (August) or Spring (January).
The number of players we can accept for a trial is limited, so early registration is encouraged. Payment is required in full and a participant is not considered registered until payment received and all forms are completed.
Each event will normally last around 3 hours, from registration through to the debrief
After the event you will recieve feedback on your performance within 48 working hours, if you are succesful you will be invited to an interview at a local venue to discuss the process and your eligibility for a scholarship. If you are eligible you will be offered a place after the interview.
