Help these boys succeed. A number of them cannot afford organized soccer and there are plenty of additional expenses with tournaments, equipment, etc. In addition, 13 of the boys are running in the Ottawa Race Weekend in May, either the half-marathon, 10K, or 5K races. They love fitness. This is the perfect device to promote fitness for kids and adults.
