David's Soccer Journey to Holland

David Jackson, Jr. started dribbling a soccer ball at the age of 2 and played his first organized game in the 2nd grade. When he was 16, he decided to pursue soccer year round. This week, David was presented with an opportunity to travel to Nijgemen, Netherlands to learn, train and play soccer with two teams in Nijgemen. 

The purpose of this trip is to get training, playing time and an assessment of his level of play from professional  coaches in Netherlands. David's goal is to play professional soccer overseas and this very important trip is necessary for him to reach his goal. While in Netherlands, he will  take in a couple pro soccer games and practice with Denison University, who will be visiting from
Ohio. 

David is scheduled to leave Atlanta on August 3, 2015 and arrive in Amsterdam, Netherlands on August 4, 2015. He will then travel by train from Shipohl to Nijgemen by train.  His expected return to Atlanta may change depending on his level of play.

David plays right back, is extremely athletic, very fast on the field, and aggressive when defending and handling the ball. He truly loves the game and is always practicing to hone his skills.

I pray you find it in your heart to bless David with a donation for his trip to Holland. No donation is too big or small. Thank you!
