College Recruiting Programs.
Understanding the college soccer landscape can be overwhelming for players and parents alike.
At FC Batavia, we are committed to investing in professionals who know this process inside and out — experts with proven success in helping high school players find the right college fit to continue their athletic and academic careers.
Personalized Guidance
Players interested in playing at the next level begin by completing a short survey form. From there, we schedule a one-on-one Zoom meeting to discuss goals and create a personalized plan.
Families receive year-round access to expert advice, support, and guidance — ensuring that no player has to navigate the college soccer process alone.
We take great pride in helping our players and families navigate every step of the college recruitment journey.
