Immerse yourself in a truly elite soccer environment by training with professional clubs in football-driven nations like Costa Rica and beyond. At GSX, you’re not just a visitor — you become part of the fabric of the club. You integrate into daily training sessions, compete in real matches, and develop alongside top local talent, gaining the experience and growth that only true immersion can offer.
The U.S. soccer development system often lacks the structure and accessibility required to consistently produce elite-level players. Outside of MLS academies, opportunities are limited—and even within them, the environment may still fall short of providing the support needed for the player to reach the top of their game.
GSX strategically places committed, high-performing athletes into professional clubs abroad, where they train daily alongside local teams matched to their age and ability. This is not an academy simulation—it’s a full-on integration into the professional ecosystem, offering players firsthand exposure to the rigor, discipline, and competitive mindset that define international football. The result: accelerated growth, real-world readiness, and a pathway shaped by an authentic and customized experience tailored to the player’s development and growth.
Unlike programs that isolate U.S. players in overseas training groups, GSX embeds athletes directly into professional clubs. Players train as full team members—immersed in the daily rhythm, standards, and expectations of the club. And when a talent rises to the occasion, we facilitate the registration process for their first professional contract, turning potential into opportunity.
