Local lad Brodie Finnie has recently started The Transfer Playbook to help footballers understand the US college pathway. If you know anyone interested in playing or studying in America or you would simply like to learn more about how it all works give the page a follow and share! ⚽️🇺🇸
WELCOME TO THE TRANSFER PLAYBOOK ⚽️
After going through the JUCO system and transferring to a four year university, I realised how difficult it can be to find clear and honest information about the process. Eligibility, transferable credits, scholarships, roster competition and conversations with coaches can all affect a player’s future.
So last spring I decided I wanted to do my part and help people, I’ve been active over Instagram and LinkedIn and now Facebook. I have been fortunate enough to interview Professional players in Sweden. NCAA Division 1 players, Former Scottish professionals and more.
This page will share:
⚽️ Honest experiences from players and coaches
🎓 JUCO, NCAA and NAIA transfer guidance
📋 Eligibility and college-soccer updates
📲 Coach-outreach and recruitment advice
🔄 Lessons from players who have changed schools
🏴Player stories and opportunities from Buchan and across North-East Scotland
The aim is to help players understand their options, ask better questions and make informed decisions before committing to their next move.
I also want to use this platform to highlight players from the Buchan and North-East area who may not always receive the exposure their ability deserves. As more Scottish talents head across the Atlantic I can’t wait to see how it develops in my hometown.
I’m looking forward to growing the page, learning from more players and coaches, and sharing information that can genuinely help others.
Please follow and share the page with anyone involved in the U.S. college soccer pathway or football across North East Scotland.
