CSUSA & Future Elite Sports Women’s Soccer Showcase!
CSUSA & Future Elite Sports are collaborating to host the Winter Women’s Soccer Showcase from Friday, December 9th – Saturday, December 10th.
College Scholarships USA & Future Elite Sports will host Europe’s largest soccer showcase for Women! This is a 2-day event that will be held in top-class facilities at Lilleshall National Sports & Conferencing Centre, Shropshire (ca. 45 minutes outside of Birmingham and 1hr 30 mins outside of Manchester). Check out the video above to see what our Showcase is all about.
The event is an excellent opportunity to showcase your talent and skills in front of soccer coaches from American universities who want to recruit players to their teams. We invite girls from all over the U.K. Ireland, Scandinavia, and the rest of Europe.
In addition to playing games against players from all over, it is also a great opportunity to learn more about how it is to study and play soccer in the US, about scholarships, and the life of a student-athlete.
We expect a good number (30+) of college coaches to attend the event which will also be watched by coaches who want to watch online.
The showcase is for CSUSA & Future Elite Sports Clients and Trialists who want to learn more. The interest in the event is very big among players and there are limited spots, so we recommend registering well in advance. Parents are welcome as supporters and encouraged to attend the college workshops that we will host.

Lilleshall National Sport Centre
The English FA historically have used Lilleshall Hall in Shropshire as their England team training facility, a place steeped in history as the 1966 World Cup-winning England team trained there. It became a formal FA School of Excellence from 1984-1999 and was used by the English National Team until the move to St George’s park in 2012.
Currently used as pre-season and mid-season bases for Wolverhampton Wanderers and West Bromwich Albion, the facility is top-class.
