If your soccer goals include opportunities for College Soccer Scholarships, then EduKick USA may be the best fit for you!
Connections
Edukick USA has strong partnerships with many soccer clubs throughout America, from grass roots to the professional level.
They also maintain an extensive network of colleges and training associations.
Sam Tajoga, the General Director of EduKick Pennsylvania, tells us these connections have allowed the academy to become a pathway program for opportunities for EduKick participants with colleges and universities.
Many times, contacts such as these remain out of reach for international students.
“We have numerous contacts with all levels of College Soccer and have a history of placing our players at various Colleges. Our current crop of players can expect a lot of great exposure to College Coaches in the Midwest area.” – Sam Tajoga
Education:
One reason colleges are open to the student-athletes of EduKick PIA is that they attend a very reputable private high school with a strong academic background.
Mercyhurst Preparatory School is the PIA affiliate High School that hosts EduKick USA participants.
One of the top high schools in America, Mercyhurst is recognized as a National Blue Ribbon School of Excellence by the United States Department of Education.
Edukick participants live in dorms on campus, and work out at the training center which includes 16 outdoor fields, two indoor fields, a turf stadium with a dome cover, and a full exercise gym.
Character:
Character training contributes to another aspect of the preparation for college scholarships as EduKick USA coaches focus on developing personal growth and self-discipline in each student-athlete.
Soccer Training:
When it comes to soccer training, the academy in Pennsylvania remains true to it’s EduKick name.
Says Sam Tajoga, “Our program is based on Technical development of the player first and foremost.
We then mix in tactical and physical development.
Finally, we incorporate our Edukick students into competitive teams and ask them to merge their character and teamwork skills.”
