Help Gabriel represent the USA
Gabriel has been playing rugby since he was 9 years old - the picture above is from the very first match he ever played in - and he has found a passion for the sport that is fuelling him towards great achievements! At 15 years old, Gabriel is over 6' tall and just shy of 250lbs, he is as you will hear in rugby circles, "A Unit"!
Gabriel was named co-captain for the #1 Florida All Star Team, The Florida Jaguares, at the recent Regional Cup Tournament in Tennessee. Whilst there he caught the eye of the USA High School All American Coach who has invited him to represent the USA in the upcoming Eagle Impact Rugby Academy tour to Canada. EIRA is a national rugby program whose mission is "to identify and develop the best young rugby players in America."
Rugby is Gabriel's unwavering passion! He has worked so hard, especially over the past 12 months, to become fitter, stronger, faster and smarter at playing the game he loves. He has aspirations to become a professional rugby player and dreams of, one day, representing his country at the Rugby World Cup.
I never ask for help, but I'm asking now. As exciting as this opportunity is, it has also come less than 3 weeks before the squad are due to leave for Canada (July 15th). Please help us put this together for Gabriel, who as well as being an excellent rugby player, is also one of the nicest kids you could hope to meet! All contributions will go towards travel, kit and tour costs.
Please be part of making this young man's dreams come true!
Thank you so much!
