NRU COLLEGE NIGHT

Where College Coaches watch, train & answer you


New River United has a long history of providing #NextLevel College Recruitment support walking athletes through every step, from information gathering, assisting highlight reel creation, writing your e-mails all the way through to signing with the college that is the best match for you.


We are pleased to be relaunching NRU College Night where many players have felt like this was the most important day in their college recruiting journey. This is where it all begins. This event happens only once a year, and allows you to be seen, trained by and directly have all of your questions answered by College Coaches at the D1, D2, D3 and NAIA levels. If you are even remotely interested in exploring College Soccer, this day just might change the entire trajectory of your life. Come join us for one of the most exciting nights of the year!
