Thank you for supporting Xavi in this competition. Your participation made a huge impact for the Why Not You Foundation and their mission to empower change in the world, one individual at a time and one child at a time.

What do they love most about playing their sport(s)?

He enjoys being a part of a team that turns into a family. It’s about encouragement and believing in each other and playing for each other and not being selfish.

Who inspires them—on or off the field—and why?

His private trainer Jose inspires him to be better and confident and to work hard and diligently. His dad does the same. He looks up to Greg Maddox for how he plays the game.

What’s one moment in their athletic journey that makes you proudest?

He has grown but is still growing. He never gives up and continues to strive. I’m proud of him because he does not give up. Whether or not he’s as talented or not he continues to work hard and that’s one of the my proudest moments of him.
