Karai and Ki Soccer Journey

My name is Dakarai and I'm 8 and this is my little brother Kijani, he's 5. You can call us Ki and Karai. We're trying to raise $5,000 so that we can compete in the 2017 Mundialito Soccer Tournament in Costa Dorada-Taragona, Spain. The trip is $2,500 for each of us to go.  We play for  Central Brooklyn Soccer Club and we have been invited to compete with the club. We've been playing soccer for 3 years, Ki was only 2 when he started!!

I play for the U10 team and Ki plays U7 and U8. I play Right and Left Back and Ki plays Forward. Sometimes when we're playing one on one Ki can salad me and score!! But then sometimes when I tackle him I can get the ball away and I score. We love playing together because it helps us get better at our positions on our teams.

My brother is my best friend and we both LOVE soccer. We play all year round and when we can't play we always have Fifa for PS4! It would be really cool for us to travel to this tournament together. We have been playing soccer together FOREVER but we've never played outside of New York City. If we can raise enough money we would get a chance to travel to another country and see teams from all over the world. Can you picture it? Ki and Karai take on Spain!! It's gonna be EPIC.

We are asking our friends, family and anyone who wants to help us reach our goal to donate whatever they can.  The trip is in April but we need to pay way before that time so we are trying to raise the money before then. Playing soccer together is something we have always done and will always do and if you can help us do that internationally we would be very grateful.

Thanks from Ki and Karai!
