MORE THAN JUST RECRUITING
Life is a team sport — and this process is no different. At Fifth and Oak, we go beyond athletic placement to provide:
Comprehensive college admissions guidance and preparation for life after athletics
Life skills that last decades, long after the final whistle
Mentorship and relationship-building that extend beyond the playing surface
Our goal is to equip every student-athlete not only for college success, but for the challenges and opportunities of life ahead.
BECAUSE SPORT IS FOR EVERYONE.
AND EVERYONE DESERVES THE SAME ACCESS TO SPORT.
With over a decade worth of success under our belts, we know the college admissions and college recruiting process can be exhilarating for a student-athlete and their family. We also know those processes can quickly become sources of frustration and confusion.
