Paul is our clients’ contact in the UK and a qualified FA football coach.
Paul provides something of a unique insight into the whole process, which we don’t see offered by many of our competitors – that of the parent.
Paul has supported both his sons through the process of studying by way of sports scholarships in American universities. So, whilst we realise that the athlete has the dream of playing in USA, we understand that the parents have a massive role to play. Whilst they may share the dream for their children, we know they will have many different questions and concerns.
Paul will help athlete and parents alike to get answers to all their questions and make considered academic and sporting choices.
Cameron is our golf scholarships specialist.
Cameron studied for his Business Administration degree in the US and represented two different institutions. He started by playing Division I NJCAA golf for The Lancers of Eastern Wyoming Junior College who finished as Runners Up in Region 9, which propelled them into the National NJCAA Championships in Texas.
At the conclusion of his time in Wyoming Cameron then transferred to Division II of the NCAA at Roberts Wesleyan in Rochester, New York. The Redhawks won the Atlantic & East Region and so competed in the NCAA Division II National Championships in Alabama.
During his time in the USA Cameron has been lucky enough to play golf in New York, Pennsylvania, Wyoming, Colorado, Nebraska, Kansas, South Dakota, Connecticut, North Carolina, South Carolina and Florida where he has built up an impressive list of contacts.
Ellie is our female soccer scholarship expert.
Ellie grew up in Wales and has played for the National Team at all youth ages from U16 - U19. She also played for Bristol City Academy between the ages of 15-19, as well as the Reserves and First Team in that time. She then spent four years at Auburn University in Alabama, who play in the SEC Conference and NCAA Division1. She is an attacking midfielder and was a regular starter during her 4 years at Auburn and went to the NCAA national tournament all four years, reaching the Sweet 16 twice and the Elite 8 once. After college, Ellie played Professionally in France for a year before moving back to the UK to play in the FA Women's Championship with Charlton Athletic and now Lewes FC.
She has many years of experience providing travel and accommodation not only in the USA but all around the world. Lorraine runs one of the top-performing Collective Travel franchises and her approach is to provide the best travel solutions at the best rates possible.
But more than that she is a consistent point of contact both before and during your trips. And travel to the USA can often involve long trips and layovers in airports – having that point of contact is priceless. This puts us in a great position to help with flights not only for our players but also flights and accommodation when family wants to visit.
Everything about Lorraine’s approach is based around customer service, which is why she is the perfect partner choice for FiveZero.

USL2 Defender of the year 2017
"I am pleased to be associated with FiveZero International. I came over on a scholarship from Australia in 2015. I played in the NAIA with the University of Rio Grande, made it to a National final, and was ultimately drafted to the MLS in my Senior Season by Minnesota United.
With the level of effort and desire FiveZero International put into finding you the perfect fit for your college experience, you need not look elsewhere. I have played alongside Nathan, and his level of commitment and character on and off the field, will help make your American experience live up to its potential. "
