If you play sports at a high level in the Netherlands, you know how many costs are involved each year: from training hours to sportswear, equipment and travel expenses for competitions. In America, this is totally different. As a student-athlete<\/a> you don’t have to worry about this: the university covers all sports costs in America. This is your reward for turning out for the university’s sports team. <\/p>\n\n

Everything around your sports expenses in America is reimbursed<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n

From training sessions to league days and from shoes to sportswear, everything you need for your sport is provided by the university. Many universities have sponsorship contracts with major sports brands such as Nike, Adidas or Under Armour, allowing you to sport the latest outfits – without having to pay for them yourself. <\/p>\n\n

Travel and accommodation expenses are also included<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n

Playing an away game or participating in a tournament in another state? No worries: you travel and stay entirely at the university’s expense. Some top schools in America even have their own planes for their student-athletes. It doesn’t get more professional than that! <\/p>\n\n

Additional guidance included<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n

In addition to athletic fees, as a student-athlete you will also have access to professional counseling. Think physiotherapy, mental coaching and performance guidance. These facilities are also included, allowing you to fully focus on your studies as well as your sports career. <\/p>\n\n

\"Counseling<\/figure>\n\n

Smart exercise and study<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n

So as a student-athlete you hardly make any costs for your sport and you get excellent facilities and guidance in return. Do you want to know how other student-athletes experience this?
