Ajax, Atletico de Madrid, Manchester United and many more teams from around the

This is a trip of a lifetime for both
of us and we will not only participate in athletic events, but excited about
learning the history and culture of Spain first hand. We will be attending a
tour of the " Camp Nou (FC Barcelona) Stadium ", the holy grounds where the FC
Barcelona first team plays. We will also visit Ciudad Deportiva where the
academy trains and watch an academy team play. Some educational stops will be
the " Sagrada FamÃlia Church ", " Gaudi Park ", the famous " Las Ramblas -
Barcelona". The cost of the trip is $2,700 USD per athlete and included in the

uniforms and back packs.
Due to the high cost of this event our parents (Jazz & Elena) will not be attending this trip and are helping us with partial cost. We ask our Friends and Family to sponsor us with ANY donation amount possible to help us achieve our financial goal and main goal of having the most memorable experience playing the sport that we LOVE in Spain.
