Are you an up-and-coming athlete who dreams of making the most of your sporting talent but you also want to get a world-class education at the same time?

Then getting a US college athletic scholarship is your dream come true!

Competing in front of thousands of fans, training at top facilities and earning a degree is amazing enough but paying signficiantly less for the incredible US college experience is surely the icing on the cake!

The only problem is that getting a sport scholarship is SUPER competitive and there's much more to it than being able to sink a 3-pointer with your eyes closed or scorching the back of the net on the soccer field.

Be at Club Ashfield on the evening of Monday, March 12 to learn everything you need to know about US athletics scholarships so you can unleash your potential!

This event will cover:

• A detailed breakdown of the US athletic scholarship application process
• The essentials for making your athletic scholarship application stand out from the crowd
• The study / sport balance you can expect as a student-athlete
• How being a student-athlete can increase your employability
• The financial benefits of an athletic scholarship
• The common mistakes that make applications fail
• Q&A with former student-athletes and now athletic consultants.

Who should be at this event:

• Year 9-12 students with strong athletic ability (regional representative or above is beneficial)
• Parents of talented athletes
• Local sports coaches
