A joint event
Two organisations.
One weekend.
JNM Football and Select Generation are joining forces in Budapest to give players access to two completely different pathways — European trials and US college soccer scholarships — in one place, over one weekend.
European Trials
JNM Football specialise in securing trial opportunities at clubs across Europe. At the showcase, they'll be talking about how to break into European football, what clubs look for, and how to navigate the outreach process.
Global Soccer Agency
Select Generation are a global soccer agency helping players unlock opportunities across North America, Europe, the Middle East, and beyond — from university scholarships in the US to professional pathways in Dubai and worldwide. At the showcase, they'll be sharing how their global network can open doors for players at every level.

Accommodation is not included in the event. We recommend booking early as Budapest has a wide range of options to suit every budget. We'll share recommended areas and hotels closer to the date.
JNM Football and Select Generation will each host their own live talk with a Q&A session — covering European trials and global opportunities respectively. After the talks, the floor opens for players to network directly with both teams, ask personal questions, and get individual advice on their situation and next steps.
Any serious footballer looking to take their career to the next level — whether that's securing a trial at a European club, exploring a US college scholarship, or finding global opportunities through Select Generation's worldwide network.
