Next Level U Statement

I’m a Canadian-Italian (dual citizenship) soccer player born in 2009, playing fullback and winger in the Vancouver Metro Soccer League VMSL for the Italian Canadian Soccer Federation ICSF Columbus U21 team.  I’m a 2027 high school graduate at Centennial Secondary with a current GPA of 3.7 (86%), on the honour roll with distinction. I earned Athlete of the Year and the Trident Award (3 sports) at my high school last year.  I was part of a team that secured consecutive Provincial Premier Cup victories in 2022 and 2023, and was recognized as a game changer in the 2022 Provincial triumph.  In 2024, my BCSPL youth team, Surrey FC won the Surf Cup Northwest Championship and silver at the PDP Nationals where I earned Man of the Match against AS Laval.  We won the U16 First Touch Football (FTF) Family Day Tournament.  I earned the title of Man of the Match in final game and again at the 2025 FTF Spring Combine.  I was the highest goal scorer on my BCSPL club team for 2024/2025 and the teams corner, free kick and penalty taking specialist. I have been recognized as one of the Top 100 players in the FTF (First Touch Football Canada) for 2027 boys grad rankings and was selected to attend the BC Soccer Provincial Program Identification weekend May 16-18th, 2025. 

I spent the summer of 2025 training overseas. I played in Scotland and trained and trailed in Italy with Frosinone International Academy, Ferentino Calcio, Frosinone Calcio and Pescara Calcio Academy.  I have plans to train and trial in Germany and Spain in winter/spring 2026.

Beyond playing, I’m a licensed BC Soccer referee and assistant referee.  By the age of 13, I had officiated 118 games, earning Referee of the Year award from Coquitlam Metro Ford Soccer Club.  I’ve since joined their Referee Mentoring team and have officiated a total of 147 games, including Provincial A Cup level matches.  My dedication to soccer is evident in my personal training endeavors and my active participation in various tournaments and showcases.  I aim to be a starter, great teammate and hard working student at a reputable university, majoring in Engineering or Pharmaceutical Sciences or make a full time move as player in Europe.
