Vladimir - From Serbia to England
Donation protected
My name is Vladimir Milutinovic and I am a 17 year old Serbian international rugby league player.
I play my club rugby league here in Serbia for Partizan Belgrade but it is my dream to move to England to play the sport. In Serbia I can only achieve a limited level due to the fact that rugby league is a developing sport here - coaching and playing standards aren't as high as in countries such as England and Australia. By going to England if gives me a chance to progress and develop by playing rugby league regularly. I have been attempting to come to England for three years now and have never been offered an opportunity. Now I have been given a chance with the I need your help to make my dreams come true.
I am hoping to join the Global Rugby League Academy programme which is aimed at providing a rugby league and education pathway for emerging rugby league playing nations. On this programme I will spend 12 months in England, playing for a local club and for a college (where I will study a sports qualification). Global Rugby League Academy will also help me to get trials and training opportunities with professional clubs. They will also put me on coaching and refereeing qualifications.
This all costs money:
Education costs - £2,500 (BTEC Diploma in Sport)
Global Rugby League Academy costs - £600 (£50 per month)
Accommodation costs - £2,000 per year
Living costs (food, electricity, gas, water, travel etc) - £3,000+
The average salary in Serbia is around €200 Euros per month. Whilst I will be contributing myself I will require help to achieve my ambition of travelling to England to experience a new lifestyle and play the sport I love. As such, I am setting up this page to try and help raise £6000 to begin covering costs while I am in England. Please can you support my efforts?
A massive thank you in advance as you guys help me to fulfill my lifelong dream of beginning a rugby career in England!
