Hi, my name is Alon, and I’m a former player with Albany Berkeley Soccer Club (ABSC). I’m reaching out to ask for your support during a really difficult time for our team.

In the middle of our season, our coach—who means so much to us—was fired and forced to leave immediately. Since then, our team has been playing independently and have been doing everything we can to stay together, practicing wherever we can find space, often without a proper field or even goals.

Despite everything, we are determined to keep going. Soccer is more than just a game to us—it’s our community, our passion, and a place where we’ve all grown together.

A big part of this fundraiser is to create scholarships for our teammates. Some players are struggling to afford the costs of staying on the team, traveling to tournaments, and continuing to play the sport they love. These scholarships will make sure that everyone has the opportunity to stay involved, no matter their financial situation.

Your donation will help us:

Provide scholarships for our teammates

Purchase basic equipment like cones and goals

Cover tournament travel costs and field rentals

Every contribution, no matter the size, truly makes a difference and helps keep our team together.

Thank you so much for your support.
