Liam was born to play soccer. He was dribbling the ball before he was 1 and is an incredible athlete, friend and a team player!
Thank you for generously supporting Liam in this year’s competition. Your support helps empower the V Foundation for Cancer Research and the Why Not You Foundation in their respective missions to save lives and empower today's youth to become tomorrow's leaders.
Liam loves making new friends, travelling to new places and discovering the world through soccer. He loves the challenge, the competition, the creativity it fosters and camaraderie the sport promotes.
Luka Modric inspires him because he is a wonderful player and every time he has the ball he is able to do magical things. His longevity and commitment to his team has taught Liam dedication and drive. Watching others play also inspires him too, as he loves to improve his own game by learning from the joy and excellence of others he is able watch.
The moment in Liam's athletic journey that makes me the proudest happened just a couple weekends ago. It was his very first tournament on his new team, playing a year up as well as 9 a side for the first time. I saw him transform from a great individual player to a player leading his team, trusting in his teams ability, both creating opportunities and scoring while helping lead his team to their 1st final.
