SCHOLARSHIPS

When attending a college in the US, you will be either a WALK-ON or a SCHOLARSHIP athlete.

WALK-ON athletes pay their way for any expense involved with attending the university. Walk-ons have the chance to gain a scholarship once they are at college but this depends on performance and opportunity. 

What does a US football SCHOLARSHIP look like?  Being offered a scholarship at any level; D1A, 1AA, 2, NAIA, or Junior College, is an achievement and scholarships can come in many forms:

A full ride, which includes tuition, books, accommodation and food, can have a value upwards of $250,000 (D1A scholarships are all full rides).

A partial scholarship may include tuition and books but athletes may need to pay for food and housing. This will vary depending on the college.

Prokick Australia has had FULL RIDE scholarships offered for 97% of its athletes.

Prokick Australia has so far saved Australian families tens of millions of dollars in academic fees by placing students into US colleges on FULL SCHOLARSHIPS. Our elite training program will develop most students into college-ready punters.

So far our program has successfully placed over 250 punters into US Colleges, with 95% of those  being on full scholarship. These scholarships are a fantastic way for Australians to enter the USA while staying in school, furthering their education and giving them an experience that may lead to the NFL, CFL, or other professional ranks.

Prokick Australia aims to develop student athletes; this makes your high school grades vitally important and parents and students need to plan for this early.

Having the ability to play college football is one thing but having the academic eligibility to be enrolled into college is another. Talk to us today about how we can find the pathway that suits your personal situation.

We can place guys into college who have completed yr 12; we can place guys into college who have left school but NOT completed yr 12; we can place guys into college that are currently at university here in Australia. We can NOT place guys into a US College who have done more than 4 yrs of university here in Australia (if you were a full time student).

Please be prepared to get your academic transcripts for us to see, including yr 9-12 reports and any university transcripts you may have. Once we have your academics and you have had a kicking or punting assessment, we can then discuss a pathway moving forward.

Joining Prokick Australia is via INVITATION ONLY. If you are invited to join you will be representing Prokick and Australia when it comes to your character and performance in the classroom and on the field.

Character is everything.

To be college eligible you will need to be currently completing yr 12 or have finished yr 12. Your grades from yr 9-12 will be of importance therefore you will need to keep on top of your academic work as it can impact on the type of college you can go to.

If you have started university, we can work with you in transferring your education through scholarship if you have the punting talent colleges are seeking.

If you have NOT completed yr 12 and have left school to start a trade then there is still hope! We will guide you through the process to gain entry into a number of US colleges.

We will work with all students to ensure all paperwork is completed to be college eligible by year’s end.

Make your way to a brighter academic/ sporting future by joining Prokick Australia, where you will need to train hard and study hard in order to prepare yourself for a college career. Our results speak for themselves.

You should expect to be tested mentally and physically and pushed to your limits within this program.

We will break down the mechanics and technique required and assist you in developing your body to handle the physical demands of college football. We will also work with you to ensure you are mentally prepared for the stresses within the program and on moving to the US.

Our program covers all the areas needed for you to get a shot at the big time. Each skill has different aspects to master.  Punting  Kicking  Holding

We expect that you will train 3 days a week on kicking / punting and 6 days a week in the gym. Our gym program is designed by our strength coach, David Tuinavai, at Conquest Athletic Performance.

You will be required to maintain a high level of kicking and fitness/physical standards.

Assessments are conducted all year round and will be scheduled at our regular training sessions. 

An assessment cost is $100 and can go for 1-2 hours. The assessment is designed to look at your current level of power, skill and how well you take instruction. Please do not worry if you have never kicked an American football before; 95% of the students we have placed on scholarship in the USA had never kicked a college football before coming to Prokick.

If you have a big strong kick or if you have great skill and placement, please come and see us. All sorts of kicks are relied on in college football so don’t miss your chance by having the wrong perception.

ASSESSMENTS can be done in Adelaide, Brisbane, Geelong, Sydney, Perth and Melbourne.

For those finding it hard to get to our training or assessment locations, we can facilitate online training that allows you to send in film from your own training location for us to provide a report and feedback.

Please contact us to discuss how this may work for you.
