The NFL's Buffalo Bills and Sturm Foods: what do they have in common? They both sponsor quality high school student-athletes on the NCSA program. If you have a high school student-athlete who has good grades, desires a college education and wants to continue to compete at the college level...read on about this incredible opportunity by Sturm Foods. National Collegiate Scouting Association (NCSA) is a leader in the college recruiting industry, using state-of-the-art technology. NCSA has designed their program to help qualified student-athletes find the college that will be the 'right match' - academically, athletically, socially, and financially. At the same time, NCSA assists college coaches in identify student-athletes. Sturm Foods recognizes the tremendous collegiate opportunities that are available for today's student-athletes. Therefore, we are proud to announce Sturm's continued sponsorship, of their employee's children, on the NCSA sports program. Sturm Foods understands the value of giving high school students the opportunity to earn a college degree. In today's competitive collegiate environment, NCSA enhances that potential. With a strong emphasis on academics as well as athletics, NCSA will distribute the student-athlete's information directly to virtually every college coach in the country, for which that student is qualified. At the same time, coaches are continually looking for prospects. The more interest and contacts a student receives, the better the options. More options create leverage. More leverage creates better offers. Eventually it leads to the student making a sound, well-educated choice regarding his/her college future. 60% of all college freshmen either transfer or dropout after their first year in college (USA Today)...less than 3% of the NCSA students do either. Why? Through the exposure, information, and guidance of the NCSA program students are educated to make better overall choices. There are over 1,800 different colleges, ranging from Division I to Junior Colleges, with thousands of coaches searching for qualified student-athletes. That's a lot of opportunity...and those opportunities include over 6 billion dollars that goes unused every year.
