Three roads to U.S. college basketball.
Not every player reaches U.S. college basketball the same way. Depending on age, academic standing and level, we work toward three main pathways.
NCAA
The top tier of U.S. college athletics. NCAA programs offer the highest level of competition, visibility and scholarship opportunities for players ready to compete at that level right away. Division I, II and III each come with their own level of competition and scholarship structure, and we help match a player's profile to the right one.
Junior College
A two-year route that lets a player build their academic and athletic profile before transferring into a four-year NCAA program. Often the right step for a player who needs more time to develop, on the court or in the classroom. Many NCAA players took this route first, using it to raise their level before making the jump.
Prep School
A U.S. high-school-level pathway for younger players still finishing their academic and athletic development before the jump to college. Our own prep program trains daily in real gyms in the United States, the same environment a player will need to compete in before college.
