You've Come To The Right Place.
College Sports Advisors (CSA) is the ultimate player management company focused on student-athletes’ needs and those of their families.
We oversee everything our clients do and assist their families in achieving one goal: finding the best college fit for each student-athlete. From the initial assessment of their skills to curating a target college list, every step of the CSA process is tailored to the needs of each unique student-athlete.
It all starts with a player evaluation. We look at academic profiles, athletic skills, goal colleges and more, all with the aim of setting your student up for success on the field and off.
Is Your Student-Athlete Ready for CSA?
While metrics are a starting point, other factors such as body type, movement patterns, mechanics, consistency, and in-game performance are also huge factors in recruiting. If you meet some of these metrics for your grad year, we highly encourage you to reach out to our CSA baseball staff to discuss your recruiting journey.

the csa difference
We're committed to crafting a highly personalized recruitment strategy that suits your specific needs and goals, and working with you closely through every step of our comprehensive approach.
As a parent, you want to help fulfill your child’s dream to be a college athlete; however, we were simply not familiar with the recruitment process. We needed to know that the advice provided to our son was in his best interest. That’s when we were introduced to Sam and Mark from CSA, who helped change everything.
They coached our son (and us) through the process, setting clear expectations and outlined the rules of engagement. Their level of knowledge was incredible.
The best part as parents was witnessing the open communication between our son and his advisors. They were there to answer every one of his questions, giving him a resource to understand the process without ever making him feel intimidated. They taught him how to be effectively engaged and guided him to achieve his ultimate goal.
This is a major life decision. Having their support made this whole experience enjoyable for our family and eliminated the stress of navigating through this unfamiliar process. We are grateful that they were very present without ever overshadowing his involvement.

Mark and Sam were always available and I spoke with them on a daily basis regarding every aspect of my son’s recruitment. We couldn’t be happier as a family working with CSA and I would highly recommend them to anyone who has a student athlete looking to play a sport in college.

CSA is the best! Without Sam and Mark I don't know where I would be right now in the recruiting process. Sam quickly became a part of the family and was available to talk any time. The relationship we've created is going to last far beyond college!
