🚨 OFFICIAL PARTNERSHIP ANNOUNCEMENT 🚨

We are delighted to announce that College Sports America will be joining the Edinburgh International Cup 2026 as an Official Event Partner! ⚽🇺🇸🎓

For over a decade, College Sports America (CSA) has been helping talented student-athletes turn their sporting ambitions into life-changing educational opportunities in the United States. Through their extensive network of college coaches and universities, CSA supports athletes throughout the entire recruitment process, helping secure opportunities worth approximately $15 million in scholarships annually.

We're also pleased to confirm that representatives from College Sports America, including members of their experienced recruitment team, will be in attendance throughout the Edinburgh International Cup, providing players, parents and coaches with the opportunity to discuss the US college pathway, scholarship opportunities, recruitment processes and what it takes to combine football with higher education in America.

Whether you're already considering studying in the USA or simply want to learn more about the opportunities available, this will be a fantastic chance to gain valuable insight from one of the leading organisations in the industry.

The Edinburgh International Cup is committed to creating opportunities both on and off the pitch, and we're excited to partner with College Sports America to help inspire the next generation of student-athletes.
