In 2015, PlaySport-USA was set up to help athletes find the best opportunities where they can combine their sporting interests and their ambitions of chasing a high standard of educational opportunity, whether with or without scholarship.
PlaySport-USA founder, Ben Howarth, has experienced the rigours and demands of NCAA sport first hand having spent 2 years as an Assistant Field Hockey Coach at Northeastern University, where he helped the team to a CAA Post season final, and a CAA regular season title. In this role, Ben was directly involved with all aspects of recruiting for the Northeastern Huskies, including the recruitment of overseas athletes.
"During my time in the US, and subsequently having returned to European club hockey, I was motivated to start PlaySport-USA because of the overall lack of quality support and information that the majority of international players received as part of their process towards playing and studying in the USA!"
With this motivation in mind, PlaySport-USA remains as athlete centred as possible, we want to provide you with a highly personalised and supportive experience.

REMEMBER we are a talent evaluation and counseling service, not an agent.
This means we will help connect you with the right people that match your athletic and academic abilities, whilst providing you with advice on how to move forward with the process. By NCAA guidelines we are not allowed to 'negotiate' for you when it comes to scholarships, and we do not guarantee you will receive a scholarship offer. We help to enable you to get exposure to the right opportunities. And work tirelessly, to try and create the best possible outcomes for you.
