The Albany Alleycats Soccer Club is committed to developing every player to the maximum of their ability —
fostering sportsmanship, excellence, and fellowship across Eastern New York.
Albany Alleycats provides you with a college recruiting system that makes sense and makes the job of a college coach a whole lot easier too. We've partnered with Total Global Sports (TGS) to give you access to a complete and fully integrated platform to assist you in managing all of your recruiting efforts. Update and share your upcoming game schedule, research schools, connect with college coaches, share the game film, and follow a guided timeline to ensure you are on track to accomplish your collegiate goals. If you have additional questions, TGS provides an around-the-clock help desk to cater to your every need.
TGS Player Profiles are automatically linked with a player's teams, clubs, leagues, and events. No need to add individual league games or team information, as it is already included in the profile and updated live in real time. This makes it much easier for college coaches to find players and view their games. Knowing that players are always on the go, TGS has developed a mobile app that gives players full access to their profiles from anywhere. Update your profile, favorite a new college, and send your game schedule to college coaches — all from the palm of your hand. Download it here.
The Player Profile is already connected with thousands of college coaches from across the country. College coaches have full access to your profile at any time through their own TGS recruiting app, which directly links them to your profile and schedule. TGS has made communicating with colleges simple and efficient. With custom email templates, players do not need to worry about attaching personal information or profile links manually. The platform offers one-touch emails that allow players to quickly invite college coaches to upcoming matches. Using a custom algorithm, TGS also matches players with potential colleges based on preferences such as location, school size, division, and other important factors. Players can access detailed college information, including staff contacts, admission requirements, costs, and more. Through the search functions, players can explore colleges that match their goals and learn more about each program. From freshman year through senior year, the TGS Player Profile account provides a comprehensive checklist to help players stay organized and on track throughout the recruiting process.
TGS offers lots of support to players and their families:
Webinars are designed for individual players and their families, and we encourage parents to attend alongside the player. Each webinar is customized for a specific age group and may include guest speakers. The sessions cover a wide range of topics, with new webinars continually being added. Be sure to register early, as space is limited. See the upcoming webinars.
Whether you are just starting the recruiting process, already in the middle of it, or trying to finalize the right fit, our staff can help guide you through every step of the journey. We provide expert, personalized advice to help you make the best decisions for your future. Each year, there are over 12,000 athletic and academic college scholarships available, along with financial aid packages and grants for qualified students. Through the TGS College Advisor Program (CAP), we educate players and families about the resources and opportunities available to them. Our goal is to provide the expert guidance and individualized support needed for a successful recruiting experience.
