Premier Membership

Twenty-three years of knowing who's who in American soccer.

TopDrawerSoccer has ranked, scouted, and covered this sport since 2003. Premier is the whole publication — and a profile that puts your player in front of the coaches reading it.

  • The rankings, with the reasoning. Top 150, regional and positional lists, plus the analysis explaining every move.
  • Commitments as they happen. Track where players at your player's level are actually going.
  • A profile coaches see. More than 2,500 college coaches visit TDS every day.
  • Coach profile views. Find out which programs opened your player's profile, and when they did it.

Elite Membership

Your player has 1,500 options. Twelve of them are real.

Knowing the landscape is one thing. Knowing what to do about it is another. Elite keeps everything in Premier and adds the tools that turn the college search into a target list, a contact list, and a plan you can actually work.

  • College Match. Set your level, academics, region, school size, and what matters off the field. Get back programs worth your time.
  • Coach Contacts and templates. Direct contact information for every program, and emails coaches open.
  • Guidance by grad year. What to do as a freshman is not what to do the summer before junior year.
  • Soccer-specific NIL and scholarship coverage. What the new roster and scholarship rules mean for your list.
See Elite plans

Every coach says they want a player who handles pressure. None of them can measure it.

Clutch Factor scores how an athlete performs when the game is on the line, on a validated 1,000-point scale, from an assessment that takes about fifteen minutes. NTerpret turns that score into a mental scouting report — what your player leans on, what breaks down, and what to work on.

It's built on decades of industrial-organizational psychology research and is already used in more than forty college programs. It has never been available inside a soccer recruiting platform.

Your player decides whether coaches see the score. It's hidden until they choose to share it, and they can change their mind at any time.

Questions worth asking

What's the difference between Premier and Elite?

Premier is everything TopDrawerSoccer publishes — rankings, analysis, commitments, the recruiting guide — plus your player's profile and coach profile views. Elite includes all of that and adds seven recruiting tools: College Match, Coach Contacts, email templates, recruiting tips by grad year, soccer NIL and scholarship guidance, Clutch Factor, and NTerpret. Nothing was removed from Premier to build Elite.

I'm already a Premier member. What happens to my time?

It carries over. Whatever months remain on your Premier membership are added to the front of your Elite term when you upgrade, so nothing is lost and you don't need to wait until your renewal date.

What is the Clutch Factor assessment?

A roughly fifteen-minute online assessment that produces a validated 1,000-point score for how your player performs under pressure, plus NTerpret, a written report on their mental approach. It's built by NTangible on peer-reviewed industrial-organizational psychology research and is used in more than forty college programs.

Can college coaches see my player's score?

Only if your player chooses to share it. Scores are hidden by default. Visibility can be turned on or off at any time, and the NTerpret development report is yours to use whether or not the score is ever published.

My player is a freshman. Is it too early for Elite?

It's the opposite. Division I soccer coaches can begin contacting recruits on June 15 after sophomore year, which means most of the work that determines your target list happens before anyone is allowed to call you. The four-year plan is built for exactly that window.

Which term should I choose?

Match it to your player's runway. Freshmen get the most from four years, sophomores from three, juniors from two, and seniors working an active list usually take one.
