College Soccer Showcases & Recruiting

European American Soccer Academy provides an extensive number of college soccer services for high school soccer players who hope to continue at the intercollegiate level. Dean Moraitis and Lee Rogers conduct educational seminars for both parents and students on exactly how the college selection process works. EASA realizes that receiving the right college soccer information, and to be personally guided through all of the various rules and regulations the NCAA has developed for student-athletes, is imperative to give your child the best opportunity for athletic and scholastic achievement.

EASA provides the soccer guidance needed to allow high school juniors and seniors to find the perfect schools to meet both their academic and athletic goals. EASA also takes into account the prospect's interests, abilities and financial needs to select the quintessential environment to make their college experience the right balance of academic life and soccer achievement. For nearly 20 years, we have navigated the turbulant waters of this arduous process for our soccer players by interacting directly with our large base of college soccer coaches, college soccer recruiters and college soccer scouts to place the right athlete with the right school.

College Soccer Showcases

European American Soccer Academy believes that as teams reach a higher level of play, and reach an appropriate age level, it is imperative to present our athletes at various college soccer showcases around the country.

Lee Rogers and Dean Moraitis have developed an extensive list of college contacts around the country, and continuously network, to provide conduits for EASA players the opportunity to play at a collegiate level. Once a decision has been made to attend a college soccer showcase, our staff begins the process of putting together information that will be provided to all of the collegiate soccer coaches attending the showcase.

Our staff members then contact the coach of the players preferred college choice to let them know that our team will be playing at that certain tournament. Once at the field, EASA makes sure to spend quality time with the coach, and/or scout, and follow up with any additional information needed to give the prospective athlete the best chance for success. This formula has worked well and had allowed numerous players to achieve their goal of playing at the school of their choice, while accomplishing the main goal which is to make sure that they get an excellent education.
