Welcome to Global Sports Relations (GSR) and your first step on a potential journey towards securing a soccer scholarship at a university in the United States of America.
At GSR, we have a proud and growing heritage of securing scholarships for student-athletes since 2016 and helping them fulfil their ambition of playing collegiate soccer at a range of universities across the USA.
You’ve taken the bold first step of looking us up and we are here to provide the information and support you need to take the next step on your journey towards securing an American soccer scholarship by attending one of our Soccer Assessment & Presentation Days.
Collegiate soccer has been a career launch pad for many household names in the USA; indeed, players like Carlos Bocanegra, Maurice Edu and Clint Dempsey – all of whom came through the collegiate system – have not only represented the USA at international level but have also made themselves household names overseas by enjoying successful careers at top British clubs.
Of course, we are dedicated to helping our clients pursue their dream of developing their future career by securing the right scholarship for them, but a soccer scholarship offers so much more than just the opportunity of fulfilling your on-field ambitions. In addition to developing and playing football in a highly competitive environment and representing your university in competition, you will also study to achieve academic qualifications recognised across the world.
College soccer in the USA has a rich and diverse history. Teams that participate in the college soccer leagues play a variety of conference and nonconference matches during the fall season, with the season culminating in the final tournament – the College Cup.
Following collegiate careers, top male players are often drafted into Major League Soccer (USA), United Soccer League (USA) or signed to clubs in other professional leagues across the world.
Similarly, the top female players are often drafted into the National Women’s Soccer League (USA) or signed to other international leagues including across the globe.
