Trials & Professional Pathway

  • We facilitate direct trials, training trips, and competitive friendlies with professional clubs, ensuring players are evaluated in real-world settings. This allows both players and clubs to make more informed decisions about potential opportunities.

  • We go beyond trials by equipping players with the tools to succeed at the professional level. Through mentorship, specialized training, and career education, we help players develop the mental resilience, cultural adaptability, and professional awareness needed to thrive in any competitive environment.

  • We focus on elite youth and pre-professional players (male and female) from the U.S. and non-EU countries who have the talent and ambition to play professionally but may have been overlooked due to lack of resources, exposure, or connections. Our mission is to uncover and elevate forgotten talent, ensuring that deserving players—regardless of financial status—get a genuine opportunity to be seen, evaluated, and compete at the highest level.

Women’s World Squad (WWS)

  • The Women’s World Squad (WWS) is a groundbreaking initiative that provides 20 elite female soccer players with direct access to professional clubs. Through high-level training, trials, and competitive matches against first-division teams, players have the opportunity to earn pro contracts or preseason invitations based on performance—not only from the opposing clubs but also through our extensive global network of professional teams.

  • Players must first submit an application detailing their experience, including highlight videos and references. The World Squad staff and Open Goal Inc. team will evaluate all submissions and identify the most promising candidates for an in-person assessment before extending invitations to join the squad.

  • We strive to keep participation free or at minimal cost by securing sponsorships and funding. Unlike pay-to-play programs, we prioritize providing real opportunities based on talent, not financial background. However, a small deposit may be applied to encourage ownership and commitment to one’s own journey toward achieving their professional dreams.

Sponsorship & Partnerships

  • We welcome sponsors, donors, and strategic partners to help fund player development, trials, and international opportunities. Sponsors gain exposure through branding, social media promotion, and direct engagement with our players and programs.

  • We offer clubs risk-free access to top international talent by organizing trials, friendlies, and training periods, allowing teams to evaluate players in real competitive environments—not just through video or scouting reports.

    Unlike traditional agencies that operate on transactions, we focus on long-term partnerships with clubs. Our approach is collaborative, not commission-based, ensuring that clubs can identify and develop talent without financial risk while players earn opportunities based on merit.
