Meet Your Host

William Clarkson

William Clarkson has helped over 80 student-athletes secure more than $10 million in U.S. college scholarships. Born and raised in Kumeu, Auckland, he attended Rosmini College and represented New Zealand at the 2024 Lacrosse World Cup—one of four brothers to do so. William’s own college journey began with a single offer to Chestnut Hill College, where he competed in lacrosse for two years before returning home due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Now at Platform Sports, he’s focused on giving athletes a better recruitment experience and more opportunities than he had. Outside of work, you’ll likely find him fishing off the coast.

“Amrit and Platform not only has an in-depth knowledge of the College system but works hard to make sure the athlete secures the right fit right from the start. They also genuinely cares about each athlete and continues to be there for them throughout their college career, and for me that makes a huge difference.”
