What Are Coaches Saying

  • "There isn't anyone better in the college advisory role than AP. I've been working with him since 2019 and the depth of his knowledge of not only the student-athletes he works with but the different divisions in both genders is second to none. The thing that sets AP apart from others in the industry is how he truly is trying to find the best comprehensive fit fit for the people he works with and he actually has a good idea of what that looks like, because he gets to know them on such a personal level and connects authentically. His relationships with college coaches are also exceptional and he's built a strong reputation for college placement- whenever I come across a player from Colorado, he's my first call- he knows high level soccer but he also knows high level character and that's why his word and reputation is so strong!"

    Travis Wall

    Kenyon College Men’s Soccer

  • "When I speak with AP about potential recruits, it is clear that he has taken the time to know each individual both as a player and a person. He is honest and straight forward, with an exceptional understanding of the college landscape."

    Mitch Williams

    UNC-Greensboro Women’s Soccer

  • "AP is one of the best recruitment advisors in the game! He has a genuine care for all of the players, and a genuine care for finding them the right fit, not just placing them. He was instrumental in us getting players that would help us win a National Championship."

    Justin Oliver

    St. Olaf Men’s Soccer

  • "I've known Anthony for 3 years now and he has been nothing but incredible in helping me find players! The thing that separates AP from others is that he doesn't just send players to coaches- he does his research to help prospects truly find the right fit! I've worked on both the Men's and Women's side of college soccer and Anthony is a person i can always count on to help find not only an impact player but a player that fits our culture!"

    Matt Tennyson

    Drake University Women’s Soccer

  • "AP stands out as the most genuine, charismatic, and helpful coordinator I've been able to work with. He truly represents what this industry should be about, getting kids placed and setting them up with the ideal fit. Very much looking forward to working alongside him for years to come!"

    Antonio Garcia

    UN-Kearney Womens Soccer

  • "Anthony continues to be a fantastic advocate for student-athletes in the recruiting process. He has an innate ability to connect with coaches and players alike, and utlizes those relationships to help find a great fit for both parties. He has an excellent understanding of the college and club landscape, and has proven to be and honest, trustworthy and reliable resource."

    Kelly Farrell

    Arkansas Little Rock Women’s Soccer

  • "I've had the privilege of working with Coach AP for many years now and hands down he is one of the best youth college placement advisors I have ever come across. His attention to details and needs of his player are paramount to finding the best fit possible for their student-athlete experience. Coach AP truly embodies the importance of creating a personal relationship with every individual he works with , which sets him apart from everyone else in the industry. AP is an individual who has a vast knowledge and background in the college soccer game, which allows him to find the perfect fit for his clients. He truly is, in my opinion, the best out there!"

    Tyler Ammerman

    Air Force Academy Men’s Soccer

  • "I've known and worked with Coach AP for more than 10 years. It is paramount for me as a recruiter to find a coach I trust, a trainer with personal insight into my program and a colleague who knows the type of specific athlete who will advance my program. The most valuable aspect in working with AP is his knowledge of each individual student-athlete and how they will fit each college program academically, culturally, mentally, emotionally."

Background

My upbringing in rural Colorado created significant challenges in college recruiting process, but also required that I develop a work ethic and strategies to earn any potential college soccer opportunities. During my recruiting process, my time as a college soccer player, and my early years as a youth soccer coach I strived to set an example for other players who wanted to pursue college soccer.

As a college coach I was constantly frustrated with how poorly prospective recruits were supported and educated on the recruiting process. Through my work as a club coach I was able to help build education guidance and implement recruiting advisory programs to help serve various memberships. In 2018 I stepped away from college coaching and was given the opportunity to pursue my passion of helping youth soccer players find success in the recruiting process, and the right opportunities in college soccer. Over the last 6 years I was able to build one of the most robust, largest serving and well respected college advisory programs in the country. The position has afforded me the opportunity to work with and build thousands of relationships across the country.

The Players Advocate has provided me with an opportunity to take everything I have learned, and all of the connections I have built and use them to provide college recruiting assistance to individuals, teams, and clubs who are looking to transform their recruiting!
