Alumni in Profile

Brianna Salverda reported to Jacksonville State training camp on Wednesday August 11th after what was a long road to success since joining the National Sport Academy Junior High program in 2008. “Brianna proved day in and day out to be one of the hardest working athletes I have ever worked with” states coach Paul Schultz, “Her work ethic will make a statement to her new teammates very early”. Salverda already boasting 90 minutes in her first friendly at centre-back is ready for this new role and as she demonstrated every day with NSA, will be up to any challenge she faces in her inaugural season. Jacksonville kicks off this weekend with back to back away games against Mercer and Tennessee.

VanYzerloo signs with U-19 Magdeburg

After spending much of his grade 12 year in Germany NSA Alumnus Devon VanYzerloo’s hard work has paid off as he has secured a spot on the roster with German U-19 FC Magdeburg. “This unique opportunity isn’t afforded to just anyone, Devon’s internal drive is certainly part of what makes him such a special athlete, I would be surprised if any player in the city spent more time on personal training than Devon”, Coach Schultz.

Piraux’s impact garners whitecaps nod!

After being invited to a scouting camp with the NTC program during the school year of 2010/2011, Mitch Piraux was identified and invited by the MLS Vancouver Whitecaps for the newly established residency program for 2011/2012 school year. This opportunity is only afforded to a handful of international students annually from across the globe. Mitch’s technical ability impressed the NSA coaches very early and “his professionalism and dedication to achieving his goal is evident in everything he does on and off the soccer field and I wish him the very best with this exciting opportunity”, Coach Long.
