The team is comprised of players from various ethnic and economic backgrounds.
Several of the boys attend Menlo Atherton High School, Woodside High School and Sequoia High School. All of the boys aspire to play Division I college soccer. Many of the boys will be the first in their family to attend college. Over 250 college coaches will be in attendance at the National Cup Finals.
The cost of the trip is beyond the means for many of the players and they have less than 4 weeks to raise funds to help subsidize the cost of this trip. In the past the boys have held raffles to raise funds, but there is little time organize a raffle. The Juventus Sport Club is based out of Redwood City and is a non profit organization. The team is looking for any size sponsorship to help defray the cost of this trip to North Carollina.
