The USA collegiate system offers athletes and students a unique opportunity to use their talents to gain a university degree. With over 4.5k colleges and universities across the USA, competition is fierce to attract talent. NCAA schools alone awarded $2.9 billion in athletic scholarships annually.
At BRUSA Sports we have helped over 200 athletes secure placement at American universities and/or colleges, covering almost $20million in scholarships over their 4 years.
With the variety of universities and athletic divisions in the USA, we assist students across a range of abilities, budgets, academics, and backgrounds.
We are a small agency and keep the personal touch by working directly with students and their families. No student is just a number or profile, but a real person with career and sporting aspirations. Our experiences in the USA and UK changed our lives and our #01 priority is to help students reach their goals and grow as young adults in the USA, UK and Europe.
At BRUSA Sports, we believe in the power of synergy. Our small but mighty team is a dynamic blend of diverse talents, each contributing their unique skills to achieve a common goal: helping students take their sports and academics further!
What sets us apart is our far ranging expertise. Across the team we’ve – attended university in the USA on a full soccer scholarship, coached at university level in the USA and had a child attend university in the USA, so we truly understand the process inside and out!
A passion for helping students athletes, and a very real sense of duty is at the heart of everything we do. We pride ourselves on the passion, commitment and trust we give to every student.
Get to know the faces behind the team – the dreamers, the problem solvers, and the go-getters who work tirelessly to help students take their talents to the next level!

For international students, the US university application process, particularly with regard to athlete recruitment, is complex and intimidating .
BRUSA provided us with structure and guidance, and supported us throughout the process ensuring each step was in place and no balls were dropped.
Their calm and professional manner was a great support that helped us through some breathless moments. I would highly recommend this great team.
Hi, my name is Mohale Sekhwela — I am with Brusa Sports.
My experience with Brusa Sports has been an exceptional and stress-free journey through the help of Mr Warren Blommestein — my agent, and Mr Michael Michailidis — the Brusa Sports Director.
They were in support of my dreams to study abroad and made sure to provide me with the best university options that would optimally contribute to my growth as a scholar and athlete.
Warren and Michael have effectively maintained constant communication with my family and I to provide information on what was needed and achieved.
I am also grateful that they were available throughout the day and night to assist in any area that I struggled to understand through the course of the journey. They have been of great support in ensuring that this journey is peaceful, allowing for my family and myself to navigate this journey as efficiently as possible.
To conclude, I am grateful for everything Brusa Sports and the staff have done for me — the hours and support to provide me with the best opportunity to thrive abroad.
Hi, my name is Connor Jones and I am with Brusa Sports.
When I first met Michael in 2019, I instantly knew he would have my best interest at heart. From the get go, Michael would be there 24/7 to help with any questions or problems I had.
Michael helped me through all the difficult times of getting my visa, finding me a suitable school and preparing me for life in America.
Unfortunately, my first year did not go how I would have hoped, so Michael and I went back to the drawing board and he insured a transfer to another school and I am pretty positive we have now found a school that I can thrive in.
Without the help of Michael and Gavin, I would not have the opportunities that await.
My journey with BRUSA Sports has honestly been incredible thanks to my agent, Warren van Blommestein, with help from Michael Michailidis, BRUSA Sports Director.
They have acknowledged all my criteria that I had for a University to provide for optimal support, results and growth.
Both Warren and Michael have always been in constant communication with myself and my family to provide information on what is needed and what has been achieved. I am also grateful for their availability throughout the day, whether it be early in the morning or late at night, they have also been available to help and support.
To conclude, I am grateful and thankful for everything BRUSA Sports and the staff have done for me. The hours, support and consulting to provide me with the best opportunity of an American scholarship.
I would like to thank Michael and BRUSA Sports for all that they have done for our son, Nicholas, and the impact they have had on our family.
BRUSA Sports uniquely harnessed all of Nicholas’ talents and abilities to help him further his career and academic future. We had received numerous offers, with these offers came advise and assistance. For any young men looking to become a professional athlete while getting their degree and academic education, our family is a testament that BRUSA is the perfect choice.
Again, thank you to Michael for all he has done and continues to do for our son.
From my first meeting it was clear that Michael was professional, trustworthy and had the best interests of the student at the forefront of his service. BRUSA was relentless in trying to find the right University for me. Michael was in constant contact, trying to filter and approach the right universities for me. He listened to feedback when a proposed option didn’t feel quite right and began continuously searching for other universities immediately. There were certain criteria which I told Michael the universities had to meet, and he worked relentlessly to find ones which ticked all the boxes. I would not have been able to achieve my dream of getting a football scholarship to the states without Michael and BRUSA’s help. Ultimately, BRUSA was able to provide all the support necessary for me to win a great US scholarship
Michael and BRUSA Sports are the best agency around to help you on your scholarship dream. Not only did Michael find me the perfect school and scholarship but he was there every step of the way. He spoke to my parents continually and made sure that the move was faultless and that everything worked and was perfect throughout. Could not have achieved this dream step in my golf and academics without Michael and BRUSA Sports
I would like to start by thanking you for your assistance with Wade. You were always there to guide and help whenever we needed you and made this process at the end a really seamless one for us. The fact that you would always be available for us and willing to answer many questions is greatly appreciated.
