Challenger Season Finale & Showcase
Overview
To provide an event to connect college coaches and prospective players, Challenger Sports hosts the Season Finale & Showcase event at the Overland Park Soccer Complex. This event offers the High School aged player a chance of showcasing their talents in front of college coaches from all over the Midwest, as well as giving the younger players an end of year tournament to display the skills learned throughout the season.
Early December is the perfect time of year for soccer players to showcase in front of collegiate coaches. All High School programs will be completed by this date, and the majority of college programs will be looking to scout future players for their programs at this time.
With 140+ teams and 100+ college coaches in attendance from Divisions I, II, III, NAIA and NJCAA, the Showcase proves to be a great opportunity for players of all skill levels to put their talents on display in front of the college coaches looking to recruit them. Don’t miss out on this year’s event!
