Professional Soccer trial in Sweden!!

Hey everyone! My name is Nicholas Blake and playing professional soccer has been my lifelong dream. I have the opportunity to travel to Sweden to try out for a professional team. The journey here has been long and difficult.

6 years ago I dropped out of a D3 college program and was on the verge of quitting soccer entirely. 5 years later, I am proud to say that I graduated with a Bachelors of Science in psychology (cum laude) from a D1 program. Following my college career I began playing with a USL 2 team and eventually earned a 3 month trial with a 2nd tier professional team in the US (Austin Bold FC).

The past year and a half I spent traveling around the US trying to finally break into the world of professional soccer. This led to the opportunity to tryout with 3 professional teams in Sweden.

I need to raise $5,000 to help with the cost of this endeavor including agency and club fees, travel to the Stockholm Sweden, room and board for 4 weeks and other expenses.

Any and all support is appreciated! Tell your family, friends, neighbors, random strangers, etc. You never know who’s in position to give an assist! Please help me keep this dream alive.
