Our coaches & players were blessed by the football gods last week. VBFC was invited to take part in a private event held by Nike & Sethmode to play with the greatest Brazilian football player in the game ... Neymar. Not only did the most expensive player come to greet the kids, he decided to jump on the pitch and show a little of what one of the greatest of all time can do.
We had a wonderful group of girls out this last week. The Santa Monica United girls were a wonderful bunch of talented, charismatic, and joyful footballers & Hamish brought his Leika.

We spoke with the legendary striker, now technical director Patrick Kluivert, and got some touches in with Angel DiMaria, Javier Pastore, Serge Aurier, Leyvn Kurazawa, and David Luiz in offseason action.

The ball is not life. The ball is a tool in life. The places it can take you, and lessons it will teach are one thing, but the people it will bring into your world are another.
