To Whom It May Concern,

I would like to begin by thanking you for taking the time to read this letter. My name is Manleo Miranda and I am the coach for LVSA Silver 03 U14 team, a father to four children and husband to a wonderful supportive wife. More about me later.

We are aggressively raising funds for this wonderful group of kids. With your help, they will be able to acquire the uniforms needed to look professional on and off the field, increase their confidence knowing that their community supports them, allow them to continue being a top team in Nevada and the nation and compete in the most prestigious of tournaments.

LVSA Silver 03 are amazing young boys not only as players but as individuals. They have won some of the most important tournaments here in Nevada among these are Mayors Cup 2014, Nevada State Champions 2015, NSYSL 2015 league first place, Las Vegas Labor Day Classic Finalist 2015, Arsenal Challenge Arizona 2015 Champions, Las Vegas Cup 2015 Champions, Las Vegas Valley Youth Soccer League 2015 Champions, Las Vegas Mayor Cup 2016 quarter finalist, Southern California National Premiere League 2016 Champions, Las Vegas Premiere Invitational Finalist 2016, Cerritos Memorial Challenge Semi-Finalist 2016.  The team trains 7 days a week and you might ask yourself do they complain?  No, not once have they said I am too tired. I do not want to do it.  I see their eagerness to learn and their willingness to push beyond what they believe they are capable of and all this to become a better player.  The level of their commitment is so solid that it is rare to see that at this age. 

In order to grow as soccer players, these young boys need to participate in more tournaments here in the State of Nevada and in other competitive tournaments throughout the country. We have traveled to participate in competitive tournaments, but with great hardship because of the cost of the tournaments and the expenses of lodging and food for all 18 young boys.

The team won the championship in Southern California National Premiere League 2016 and will be traveling on July 14 to compete for the National Premiere League Title 2016 in Aurora, Colorado.  Our boys are known as the little giants because of their size. We are probably the shortest in stature yet they play up one or two years making their height stand out amongst other teams.  If this impresses you, wait until you see them play against players that are 40 to 60 pounds  above them with double their height and yet win the ball at the game, whether its heading or a one on one run.  I could keep going about the many virtues that these boys possess and to be honest I am amazed by their mental strength and competitive attitude but most importantly by their giant heart that see no boundaries to success.  Have you ever wonder if you have impacted someone’s life?   

Well I invite you to wonder no more! You have the opportunity to donate or sponsor these young boys and touch 18 wonderful lives.  Your contribution  will enable these young boys to participate in competitive tournaments but most important show them that super hero’s do not always wear a cape, fly or have super strength but are people who care and want to touch a life not just any but their life, the life of my little giants.  Can you imagine how wonderful this is?

Become our partner!  Help these boys grow as players and individuals.  Any contribution will help our boys get closer to their goal.  Remember it takes a village to raise a child, be part of this village.  Your donation can be of any amount, the team will be forever grateful.  May God bless you always.  In advance thank you.  Hoping that you can become one of our partners “Our Super Hero”.

A bit about me.

I Served in the military from July 1997-July 2001 and received a rank of E-5 Sergeant, honor graduate at basic training, Iron Man and honor award of my non commission graduating class in Fort Steward. Soccer has always been my greatest passion, as a child I fell in love with the beautiful game and played at Cimarron High School during this time I was awarded 1994, 1995, 1996 MVP, All Sunset Division 1995 and 1996. What I have learned from the military and soccer is that perseverance will always be the key to success.

Sincerely,


Manleo Miranda

Head Coach of LVSA U13 Team


My name is Ricardo Mogollon, one of the team parents.  My son Ricky is on the team .I am the organizer of this campaign and will use funds to directly purchase uniforms, pay for monthly fees, tournament fees, and as much that can be covered with raised funds.  I will forward funds as needed to LVSA or directly pay to the vendors.


We have qualified for Nationals in July 2018 in Frisco, Tx.  Help us get there.
