Help Our Team To Compete!

My name is Danilo Secchiaroli and I have had the pleasure of coaching New Haven Public Schools Middle School soccer team here in New Haven, Connecticut.

Our team brings together 6th–8th graders from across the district and across the globe. For these students, New Haven is their home, and a shared love of soccer is their universal language.

During our first year together, we tied three games and lost the rest. Even though we had a great time—as kids always do—we were determined to improve. Our official school season runs from September to November but the players and I decided to keep training year-round, through the winter, spring, and summer.

That hard work paid off. After two years of practice, we finished this season with 7 wins, 3 ties, and only 2 losses! To keep this momentum going, the team wants to compete in a special holiday tournament on December 26th. The entry fee is $450, and we need your help to get there. Any contribution you can make would mean the world to these athletes.

Thank you so much for your support!
