We are delighted to welcome 18 year old Ethan Nicolaas to our Fall 2024 Men’s Soccer programme.

US College Coaches seeking an out and out natural striker should definitely take a long look at 18 year old Ethan. He combines natural pace, excellent on the ball technique and strength and is without doubt one of the best strikers we have ever worked with.

Ethan is currently playing soccer at the Swindon Town FC (English League 2) Foundation Academy and for Cirencester Town u18s (good standard English youth soccer).)He is the current leading scorer at both clubs and as can be seen from his video he is a natural finisher. He possesses the pace to get away from defenders and has the upper body strength to turn an opponent. Standing over 6′ tall, Ethan also has the aerial power to convert chances. His decision making is also excellent and if he sees a team mate in a more advanced scoring position, he will always choose the assist.

Nathan began playing soccer at the age of 9. Up until the age of 10, his sport had always been swimming and he won numerous local championships at his age groups. He then discovered soccer and his love for the sport has grown ever since. Like most boys, he hopes to reach the highest playing level as possible and he sees playing US College soccer as an ideal way to combine both his academics and playing ambitions. Having played initially for Highworth Youth Soccer Club and then Fairford & Lechlade Youth Soccer Club in his native Wiltshire, he joined Cirencester Town FC in 2019, winning the club’s Manager’s Player of The Year award and finishing the season as leading goalscorer.

Academically Ethan has a good set of GCSE grades and is currently studying for an A-Level qualification in Business Studies, as well as a Sport BTEC. When he moves to a US College in Fall 2024, Ethan would like to study a sport related Major.
