As we approach the winter break for the 2024/25 academic year, we reflect on some of the kind words that our current postgraduate student-athletes have shared about their experience working with Play Overseas.
Kaitlyn CookUniversity of Nebraska Omaha, NCAA D1“When I first discovered Play Overseas I was shocked since I had never heard of them before. Being curious I clicked on the link, read their website, discovered it way truly free (no scam), and inputted my information straight away. It was one of the best decisions of my life, no exaggeration. They were extremely helpful, caring, interested, and by my side every step of the way. They made the entire process extremely easy and made it possible for my dream to play soccer overseas in the UK come true. They truly want what’s best for you and root for you even afterwards. I hope more people are able to discover this amazing company and utilize the free services in order to achieve their goals, the same as I was able to. From the US to UK, thank you once again Play Overseas!” |
Ibn WilliamsMorehouse College, NCAA D2“My time in the UK has truly exceeded my expectations. I’m grateful to Play Overseas for the unique opportunity to wear multiple hats here, each helping to shape my future both on and off the court. Embracing this new sense of independence in a different country has been exciting, and the warmth and hospitality I’ve received since my arrival have made the transition even smoother.” |
Elizabeth KellumElizabeth City State University, NCAA D2“So far this has been a great experience. The staff at Play Overseas really helped make sure I had all the paperwork and contact information I needed before I got here. All I had to do was travel and just enjoy playing/exploring the UK. Academically the university provides a lot of resources to help me succeed in my field. While the level of play and the overall environment is really great to be in. I’m also thankful that my coaches and teammates have made me feel like part of a family. It’s made being away from home easier.” |
Yuping GuConcordia University, NAIA“It has been a joy working with Play Overseas staff as they helped me to continue my academic and basketball career. They provide a platform like no others to help student-athletes to reach their personal goals. The staff provided me plenty of insights for each institution and were patient with me throughout this whole process. Their service is top notch and I recommend this to any small college student-athletes that look to continue their academic and athletic careers.” |
Eva DeTroiaThe College of New Jersey, NCAA D3“I’ve been working with Play Overseas since January 2024, and I can honestly say they have been wonderful throughout this entire journey. Their guidance and support have been fundamental to my success. I’m now pursuing my Master’s in England and playing lacrosse, all made possible by their insightful suggestions and step-by-step assistance. I couldn’t have done this without them, and I’m incredibly grateful for everything they’ve done. Highly recommend!” |
Tre ThomasUniversity of The Southwest, NAIA“Marking almost a month since I’ve arrived in the UK it’s been a cool opportunity. From a scholar and basketball perspective, getting the chance to play BUCS D1 and NBL D2 I can explore in many options from getting a pro career while also meeting different students while gaining a masters. It’s a win win! Also working with Play Overseas, it’s always a pleasure. They help in so many ways, they are very understandable and dependable, and always reply in a timely manner.“ |
Addison BurlisonPensacola Christian College, NCCAA“I am loving my experience in the UK. Choosing to come over here for basketball is the best decision I’ve ever made. I love the teams I play for, the way of life, and the game in general! I played university basketball in the US and still had eligibility remaining, but I knew playing WNBL D1 & for a Premier BUCS team would be an experience I wouldn’t have in the states. Since being in London, my love for basketball has only gotten stronger. The way my coaches relentlessly pour into me and my development has ignited a new level of passion for the game and the joy that it brings me. I’m so grateful for this opportunity and would recommend it to anyone who’s considering it!” |
Zyaire-Prettie GarritTalladega College, NAIA“Play Overseas are an amazing team. They made sure I had all my information and they were super kind, precise, and fast. They handle everything you need – 10/10 highly recommend working with them!” |
