Away from the bright lights and manicured fields, there's another side of soccer....

Next Tuesday in New York city will be the premiere of the movie Pelada, which is all about the magic of soccer in the lives of regular people all over the world. Its a story based on the novel idea that if you have a soccer ball anywhere in the world you can make connections regardless of your background, language, prejudice or any other difference! Pretty cool!

Ethan Zohn and some of the GRS Directors will be hosting a special screening of the documentary/film in New York, with admission fees going to the great work GRS is doing around the world. If you're in the city, please do support! Details below:

Support the Cause!

Thank you for checking out my blog. I am currently fund raising for an internship experience with Grassroot Soccer starting in August 2010. My goal is to raise $5,000 for living expenses and flights (currently at $4,392). I would appreciate your contribution to the cause!
