sports scholarships ::
Athletic as well as academic scholarships are much more common in the US than
in most other countries. Sports scholarships are awarded to athletes of
outstanding performance in order to enable them to finance their studies in the
US. The athlete participates fully in practice sessions with the college team
and represents the university in various tournaments and competitions. The
coaches’ job is to professionally look after the teams; in this sense, he
or she has a similar position to that of a professor and is also paid
accordingly.
For generations, American universities have had college teams in all kinds of
sports. These teams are professionally managed by specially employed coaches
and serve as an advertisement for the respective university in numerous
competitions. If a team has regional or even nationwide success, the media will
cover its development. That is why college teams are a means to market the
university in order to recruit new students. For this reason the universities
provide the coaches with a budget to recruit talented athletes from around the
world and help them finance their studies or even their entire stay abroad.

It is strongly recommended that you can get in touch with coaches on your own
and try to convince them about your strength and fitting for the team. Coaches
tend more and more to have potential recruits fly in and show what how good
they really are. Some agencies help coaches in screening potential applicants
and presenting the coaches with all necessary athletic and academic information
they need in order to evaluate the athlete.
