October Issue of Amplified Soccer Athlete is Here!

A lot of athletes, wants to continue to play following the end of her intercollegiate career. For most college athletes that playing opportunity does not come at the highest level of their sport. A quick look at the statistics shows that only a little more than 1% of NCAA men’s college soccer players will go on to play at the MLS level in the United States. That calculation does not include the tens of thousands of athletes also playing at the NAIA, NJCAA and similar levels. While NCAA does not have similar calculations for women’s soccer the numbers would be smaller with more women’s collegiate soccer players than men’s and fewer NWSL teams.

This means that athletes must look for additional opportunities to continue to play at various levels of competition. Fortunately for them, opportunities are plenty, but waiting to be discovered. We’ve featured a number of these opportunities in this issue and will have more on our website over the next month.

Ultimately, we simply recommend that if you want to continue playing that you search out those opportunities because they exist. Our last article is from Dr. Jay Williams, whose piece focuses on the benefits of playing soccer as an adult. The bottom line is that playing soccer is more enjoyable than traditional exercises and can be a great benefit to overall health.
