Injury

Study and Play USA

Since 2004, families have placed their trust in Study & Play USA to guide them through this rewarding pathway. Highly regarded by coaches right across the USA, our expert team consists of former college student-athletes, educators, and coaches who understand the importance of finding the right fit for each student-athlete.

The catalyst for the establishment of Study & Play USA was the life-changing experience that founder Chris Bates enjoyed during his four-year US University journey as an NCAA D1 tennis player at Oklahoma State University. The positive outcomes from his experience ignited a passion for educating others about their own unique American opportunities in the hope that more student-athletes can set themselves up for their best lives.

Upon his return to Australia, Chris and his wife Alexia have set about building a team of former student-athletes, teachers, coaches, and mentors to develop their industry-leading program designed to provide focus, education, and support along the pathway to the US College System. With the necessary care, the team customizes the entire process for each individual family’s needs, which for some is a six year collaboration.

The success of this customized approach is evident in the fact that Study & Play USA facilitates millions of dollars annually in scholarship opportunities for young international athletes to attend a broad selection of Universities, from some of the world’s most reputable Universities like Cal Berkeley, Princeton, UCLA and Dartmouth, to smaller, two-year junior colleges.

For Study & Play USA, it’s not just the opportunity that we are passionate about. It’s about providing pastoral care support for the whole journey, during high school, finding the athlete’s right fit college, support while in college, University graduation, and through to post-college working life for our student-athletes. It’s about long term outcomes!

We feel incredibly lucky to have assisted so many wonderful student-athletes over the years and look forward to continuing for years to come!
