Why you should pursue playing college soccer and how to do it. If you're at least 14 years old and you know that you want to keep playing soccer when you turn 18, keep watching this video. Now, I think it's great that you want to keep playing. You can't wait. You need to start preparing for your future right now. I know most players will say that their ultimate goal isn't to play in college, it's to play professionally. And if that is your goal, then you should be reaching out to some professional teams and academies and pursuing those professional opportunities before you turn 18.

If you get a decent scholarship, that can be worth more than 90% of professional players make. So how do you go about getting recruited to play college soccer? Number 1, get on a club team. Number 2, make a resume. Number 3, make a highlight video. And number 4, make sure you do all of this with the help of College Soccer Guy. If I haven't convinced you, maybe he can tell you.
