Biography
I am 11. I am a goalkeeper. I am going to Juventus (with your help).
I want to play for Australia - watch out Mat Ryan, I want your job.
I love being a keeper. I train with the Patafta academy in Canberra in their elite goalkeeper academy and play with Canberra Olympic in the Division 1 competition U/13.
I've played soccer since I could run, both in Australia and in Papua New Guinea. I started on the field but found my home in goal and take inspiration from the greats of the game including Mat Ryan, David De Gea, Marc-Andre Ter Stegen, Keylor Navas and Manuel Neuer.
I was born in Cambodia and now live in Australia. I love to watch Cambodia play and to stay connected to my birth country through football. There are so many people with so little. I have spoken with the fab company Park Social Soccer Co about getting some of their great products there for kids to play!
When I was young I used to watch the Canberra women's team play and have grown up watching players that now represent Australia in the Matildas. How great to see them succeed - will be cheering on the Matildas through the World Cup! #neversaydie
It's great to have the support of so many people in the soccer community as I put this campaign together - fancy having legends like Tim Cahill want to support me and players like Ellie Carpenter - who on hearing she was heading to the World Cup still found time to write and offer her support. I am thrilled to have Canberra local Ben van Meurs offers his support - future legend! Watch this space as their generous offerings will be up for grabs on the site in the weeks to come.
What a great sporting community to be a part of. Also thrilled to have the support of my academy, my team, my training buddies and my mates.
SO with your help I am Juventus bound. The first step to taking my love of the game to the world.
