Frequently Asked Questions
Learn More About What We do
What does Ecla Sports actually do?
We clear legal, visa, and compliance hurdles for global talent. Services span EB-1A/EB-2 NIW green cards, P-1/O-1 sport visas, FIFA-licensed contract negotiation, NIL/IP audits, and flat-fee institutional retainers for colleges and clubs.
How are your fees structured?
We quote transparent flat fees after a short discovery call, so you know the full cost upfront. Roster-wide or institutional engagements bundle unlimited filings into one predictable semester or annual retainer.
Are Ecla Sports services only for footballers?
No. We serve athletes across all sports—as well as coaches, esports pros, researchers, founders, and other high-achievers who meet U.S. immigration or transfer-market criteria.
What documents should I prepare before the first call?
Have your passport bio page, CV, highlight metrics (stats, rankings, publications), prior visas or denials, and any key contracts or scholarships ready. We’ll refine the list during your discovery call.
How do I get started?
Click “Book a Discovery Call” on any page to reserve a Calendly slot, or email info@eclasports.com. You’ll receive a brief intake form and a secure link to upload documents.
Who qualifies for EB-1A or EB-2 NIW?
EB-1A fits athletes, coaches, researchers, or creatives with sustained international acclaim—medals, world rankings, peer-reviewed coverage. EB-2 NIW suits advanced-degree holders or professionals whose work benefits the United States, such as national-team coaches or STEM innovators.
I’m a college compliance director—can you handle an entire roster?
Yes. Our Institutional Retainer covers every F-1, CPT/OPT, P-1, and O-1 filing, plus NIL contract audits and quarterly eligibility health checks—all under a single flat engagement.
Where are you based and do you work remotely?
Rancho Cordova, California, with advisory benches in all over the world. All consults, filings, and contract reviews are delivered securely online, so location is never a barrier.
What does your player-representation service include?
FIFA-licensed negotiation, dual-jurisdiction contract review, ScoutSync analytics dossiers to 120+ clubs, trial placement, transfer-window visa strategy, and post-signing brand/NIL management—delivered on a transparent, athlete-first agreement. We also file FIFA TMS transfers, calculate solidarity/training compensation, resolve disputes at FIFA DRC or CAS, vet third-party intermediaries, and secure sponsor partnerships—all while safeguarding eligibility and image-rights revenue.
