VISIT WEEKEND
& OPEN HOUSE
PATHFINDER NY
College Recruitment & Open House
we're currently taking reservations for our open house weekend from October 7th to 9th. During this weekend, we'll welcome players to our campus, allowing them to immerse themselves in the life of a Pathfinder student-athlete.
Pathfinder FC extends its warm welcome to players and families for a college recruiting weekend and open house. Over the weekend, both parents and students will attend information sessions, cadet panels, and academic forums, all designed to provide a comprehensive understanding of our academic programs and the Pathfinder experience.
For players traveling by plane, we'll arrange transfers to and from the arrival airport. All meals and housing will be provided for our players. Additionally, family members are encouraged to join our informational sessions and events, and we'll offer recommendations for nearby accommodations.
Our sessions are thoughtfully designed to offer practical advice on finding the right opportunity for you, combined with a taste of life at Pathfinder. During the weekend, all three of our senior teams will have home games, including our first team's match against the Philadelphia Union. On Sunday, you'll embark on a tour of a local university, where you'll learn about what college coaches seek in athletes and the university's admissions criteria. The program will culminate on Monday with a training session featuring 4-8 universities, along with additional sessions on the Pathfinder program.
