Senior Valdir Nelson DeSouza took a trip to Bolivia this past summer, where he had an unique experience with his dad’s old soccer team.
What is something that you are proud of?
This recent summer I went to Bolivia and I had the opportunity to play professional soccer on my dad’s old team. But the high school rules here didn’t allow me to play in an official game though. But that’s one of the proud things in my life because it gave me the opportunity to taste a little of the professional soccer player life. So I’ll be a little prepared for next summer when I go to Brazil.
Did you go to Bolivia with your whole family?
I didn’t travel (to Bolivia) with my whole family, just with my brother and mom.
Why did you go to Bolivia?
The reason we went to Bolivia was so that my mom could see our grandma.
What gave you the chance to almost play on your dad’s old team?
Because it was my dad’s old team, they thought I was good (as him).
