The San Francisco Elite Academy is pleased to announced a partnership agreement with College Fit Finder to help SFEA’s college-bound players with the college soccer recruiting process. College Fit Finder provides players with a competitive advantage over the typical student-athlete navigating the recruiting process. It’s a comprehensive web-based tool that allows individuals to take ownership of their college-play interest and to help them possibly find a home at the college level.

As a club, SFEA is committed to both player development and helping our players fulfill their dreams of playing collegiate athletics and accessing higher education. College Fit Finder provides a consistent launching point to our club's support of its players in the recruiting process, and it will allow our coaching staff to take a more customized, personal approach in helping our athletes navigate the process from start to finish.

Over the course of the next several weeks, SFEA will be providing the College Fit Finder tool to EVERY one of its high school-aged players FREE OF CHARGE. This week, our 2001 and 2002 Girls teams will receive an email via their TeamSnap accounts with important College Fit Finer sign up and next steps' information. In conjunction with this new partnership, SFEA will hold a College Night Meeting for these 2001 and 2002 girls players (and parents) on Wednesday, March 6th at 6pm to review the College Fit Finder tool and answer any questions they may have. Again, details will be posted via TeamSnap.  

The upcoming meeting will include both a representative from College Fit Finder as well as our new SFEA College Guidance Coach, Jeff Wilson. Having served as an academic and college counselor at the high school level for nearly 20 years, Jeff Wilson will now be leading our club as a college liaison to support our players’ interest, questions and journey toward possible college-level soccer play.  Jeff’s experience and intimate knowledge on the process from both a student prospective and a college soccer coach should prove an invaluable asset to SFEA college-bound student athletes.

On behalf of the SFEA board and coaching staff, we look forward to working with our high school aged players to help facilitate recruiting and in finding a good college match for those seeking to play at the next level.
