APPLICATION: Once you submit your application to a representative from Global Sports Experiences will reach out to discuss the program in more detail. We will also speak with your coach and check out any video links you send. We select players based on their on field and off field abilities and want to ensure this is the right fit for you and your development as much as what you can offer the team.

REGISTRATION: If successful you will be invited to register follow the step by step guide to register and secure your place. We have limited spaces for players and their supporters and once rosters are complete we close registration. You will be required to make a deposit payment per person you expect to attend to hold your place. GSE will continue to send out communications and information via the registration page.

COMMUNICATION: Unfortunately, because the players are being selected from different states and even countries it is not possible to have a training session or face to face meeting before departure. However, as we get closer to your departure date we will set up a ZOOM meeting with the group to go over final preparations and to meet the coach. This last meeting will include details on what to pack, hotel confirmations, confirmed games, sightseeing events and much more. We will also provide details about the GSE staff who will be managing the day to day events and will meet you on your arrival.

Once you have registered for the event we will provide you with a roster number. You will then need to purchase your FC United player's uniform package from our apparel provider.

Players will require the following FC United items which need to be purchased at an additional cost:

• Home Jersey.
• Away Jersey.
• Training Jersey.
• Socks x2.
• Shorts x2.
• Full Tracksuit.

Our apparel provider may recommend other items such as bags, rain jackets and coats but these are not compulsory to purchase.

For some events players and their parents may be able to room together. During the registration process we may collect preferences for room mates amongst the players.
