Events like this play a crucial role in our continued mission to prepare our players for the highest levels of the youth game and get recruited into college."
“Having three of our teams represent the club at the ECNL South Carolina showcase was truly special.

I’d also like to extend our appreciation to the ECNL for hosting a first-class event that provided an incredible opportunity for our players to compete at a high level and perform in front of hundreds of college coaches. Experiences like this are invaluable as we continue to help our athletes grow and prepare for the next level.”
