The Crossroads of America College Showcase offered the Magic, their first showcase experience of 2009. After many research projects and contacting college coaches in the early spring, the Magic girls found great benefit from these steps in this process. A minimum of 25 college coaches took in each Magic game and many expressed future interest.

The Magic ended the 2009 Future in Soccer College Showcase with an impressive 2 wins and 1 draw, giving all college coaches in attendance a taste of "Magic Soccer".

The Magic College Bound program has begun! We have already had initial parent/player information sessions on "How to obtain a U.S. college athletic scholarship", college research project one is completed, player profiles have been created and U.S. college coaches have been contacted in order to create some interest in our athletes over the next few years.
The Magic had a successful weekend on and off the field at one of the United States Premier College Showcases. The trip started with a stop at Indiana Purdue Fort Wayne University for a tour, dinner and a Q&A with the IPFW Women's Soccer Staff. The next morning began with a bang at Purdue University! The girls had the opportunity to tour the campus, shop at the bookstore, meet some Purdue players and sit down for a Q&A with the PU Women's Head Coach. Off to the field, were the Magic finished with a 1-1-1 record, meet our staff expectations and created some interest from College Coaches following the Sunday performance.
Looking forward to the next step in this process!
