⚽ Elle’s Journey to Spain
Because of your support… everything changed.
A few months ago, our community came together to help send Elle to California to compete at the Surf Select National ID event.
That experience changed her life.
Out of more than 100 girls who competed, Elle has officially been selected for the Surf Select National Team.
We are so proud. And so grateful.
The Next Chapter: Spain
This November2026, Elle has the opportunity to travel to Spain to compete internationally with the national team.
For a 12-year-old who has poured so much into this game, this is more than a trip. It’s a chance to:
- compete at the highest level
- represent her region and community
- continue growing as both a player and a young person
What This Will Cost
This next step comes with a significant cost.
Between flights, accommodations, training, and travel expenses, the total is expected to be approximately:
$15,000
This includes:
- International flights
- Team travel package
- Insurance
- Lodging and meals
- Uniforms
- Training and preparation
- Transportation and additional expenses
Why We’re Asking
We didn’t get here alone.
This community showed up in a big way to help Elle get to California. Because of that support, she was able to step onto that field prepared, confident, and ready.
And now, because of that moment, this door has opened.
This is not something we take lightly.
This is about more than soccer. It’s about:
- discipline
- opportunity
- belief
- showing her what’s possible when hard work meets support

SUPPORT ELLE'S JOURNEY TO CALIFORNIA
After months of hard work, training, and commitment, Elle has been selected to compete with the Surf Select team and travel to California this February 14, 2026. This opportunity means so much to her. It reflects the time she’s put in, the lessons she’s learned, and the love she has for the game.
While in California, Elle will compete at a high level alongside talented players from across the country. She will also be scouted for the Surf Select National Team, making this tournament a meaningful step forward in her development as a player.
Traveling for youth sports comes with real costs. This fundraiser is specifically to help cover expenses related to the California tournament, including flights, lodging, food, tournament fees, and transportation.
We are incredibly grateful for the village that has supported Elle along the way. If you feel led to support her journey in this season, we would be so thankful. No amount is too small, and every bit of encouragement truly matters.
Thank you for being part of this moment with us and for cheering Elle on as she continues to chase her goals.
With gratitude,
Jenell & Family
