Alex Peña, also known as “La Bestia” is a Venezuelan footballer born on February 25th of 2007 in Maracaibo. Being born into a poor family meant that life was not all sunshine and rainbows for him. His dad had to do job on a day-to-day basis because he was unable to find a steady job. Alex’ older brother Jose had to work at the age of 13 to help support the family of 7. Alex leaned to play football in the streets of Maracaibo at the young age of 3 years when he found an old leathery ball on the ground next to his home. From then on, he played with it every day. Even though his social status made it hard for him to play football he was able to play for a local club. His explosive pace and work rate quickly distinguished him from the other kids and so at the age of 13 he got into a more professional area by joining the youth team of Zulia FC, a club from Maracaibo known for developing the region’s youth. He stayed there and developed some much-needed skills. In 2022 however because of the fusion of Zulia FC and Deportivo Rayo Zuliano he made the decision to join Unión Atlético Maracaibo that was in the midst of a rebuild and because of that shifted their focus much more on youth development. Alex Peña since then improved his offensive play by being able to put crosses in the penalty area and finding the striker there and doing consistently overlap runs. Until now he reached his prestige peak by playing in the CONMEBOL Sub-20 Championship 2025. This continental showcase is what made him known globally as a promising prospect. The kid from Venezuela is now just on the edge of playing in the most prestigious stadiums in the world.

The Early Story of Star Scream

Star Scream Born May, 29th Year Unknown Cybertronian . Grew up in a small little Town in Canada called Dauphin, Manitoba- Canada. As a fellow Canadian we usually only play one sport and that it is which is Hockey. Star Scream didn't pick that route he wanted to make a very difficult route and playing Soccer ( football ) . Dauphin is a mid west town in province of Manitoba. Where alot of farming is in the area quite a bit, Dauphin is very mix town with huge populations of Ukrainians the came to this area of 1890's. Anyways with that strong culture in place gave me worth ethic on working on these farms made me strong, but for my development i had to move. Canada isn't a huge nation in the football scene it was very hard to proper Football training i had to move to biggest city. Manitoba wasn't an ideal place to play football had to go either west or east and i choose west and Moving to Vancouver. Vancouver has a Professional team called Vancouver White Caps, Star Scream was trying to make a name for himself trying to get into the Vancouver Whitecaps Development program. When getting to the Development program i found my style my position which was CM i always wanted to control the ball and feed the attackers. Trying out for the white caps i made the academy team development program, they listed me as a prospect. I was a very proud Canadian even tho it was just at bottom of the barrell i had something i can fight for. With playing a couple years on the White Caps Program, i had to make a change where the North American football style wasn't progressing as it should. A new opportunity came for Star Scream this very new academy league. This academy league has scouts everywhere and is very well connected, this is a world wide league which Star Scream deep down was looking for. Port Royal sent me an offer to Join the Academy Team the potential is very high as it gives me an opportunity to impress all the scouts on big level. Being Canadian is very hard to get into the football scene unless you live in massive city even then. Star Scream Journey is just starting but the future looks Bright hoping to have a very successful season with Port Royal.

Approved. I look forward to seeing Star Scream develop!

As a young bear Bodhi did the normal bear things. Frolic through the wood with his sister and mother. Play by the river while waiting for his mother to catch fish for them while also trying to show them how to fish for themselves. And run away from the angry moose that didn't like that they had wandered to close to him in the flower field. But one day while he was out playing, Bodhi found an odd structure in the middle of the woods. And while later he would learn that it was called a cabin. As a young cub he couldn't help his curiosity as decided to explore the odd wooden structure. After some testing of the walls he happed to find something that opened and let him inside of it. A whole new world opened before his eyes. Bodhi found so many new things. Things he would later fidn out were called tables and chairs. Shirts and jackets. But the most interesting thing was thier weird rock called a television. After sniffing and poking at it. The Television, or TV as they call it, Turned on! And on that Tv he saw human men kicking this weird black and white egg around. The young grizzly was enraptured. Sitting and watching these humans for hours. Playing a game they called "soccer". As he watched he became more and more enraptured. Wondering how he could also find the weird black and white egg and learn to play himself. Credit to his luck and the kindness of the universe. It was only a matter of days before he found one of the eggs, that he found out was called a "ball", floating down the river. And that was it. He spent day after day learning how to stand on his hind legs and play the game. Slowly getting himself used to kicking the ball and keeping the ball between his paws. And before he knew it he was able to run and keep the ball moving. It was then he decided he had to leave his mother and sister and make his way to the human world and figure out how to get better. He went back to the cabin and spent months learning how to speak and wear human clothes. And when Bodhi decided he was ready. He took his ball and headed out. Not once looking back. His sights set on his goal of joining a soccer team. To make his name as the first bear to be a soccer great.

Approved. Bodhi gonna be a soccer legend in the human world!

Football (or Soccer in his timeline, little american) was something he grew up to love playing. From little pickup games on the field after school, or being on a little league soccer team at 4 that basicamly everyone played on at some time, he always found some time to enjoy the game. One issue, his parents believed it was a risky choice. They wanted to let him pursue it, but with so much risk in actually making it pro, they advised him to keep up with his studies as well. So he did, one thing always standing out to him had been law. That was the career choice he made for the first several years of his life, and he was not happy that way. Yes it brougjt in good money, but one thing was always on his mind. The game of Soccer. He decided to put in any time off work he could in to the game, making it on to local competitive teams, dominating the field then getting further on an even more competitive team. From a lawyer who was seen as just another player was quickly making his way up the ranks, and it caught the notice of scouts quick. Teams really believed he had the potential to make the SSL.

Geronimo Datbasted's dad used to joke that he named his son after the sound he made at the point that he conceived him.

Geronimo Datbasted's dad was a bit of a tw*t, if we're honest with ourselves.

Born in Ouagadougou, Burkina Faso to Irish parents, Geronimo - known as "Jerry" to his mates - moved back to the Emerald Isle when he was three. His dad travelled around a lot with work, so he was primarily raised by his Mam, an absolute powerhouse of a woman who would sort Geronimo out quick sharp if he ever stepped out of line. She was tough, yes, but in the way a lioness is tough. She knew her young Geronimo was destined for big things, and she fiercely nurtured his competitive instincts in sports at school.

Geronimo was never the quickest, or the most technical, or the strongest mentally, but throughout his career in grassroots football he became a bit of a jack of all trades - the sort of player a manager loved, because he'd play anywhere he was told to, and do a pretty serviceable job. Naturally left-footed and always quite big, coaches used to be undecided whether to stick him up top or at centre half to use his height - but neither ever seemed a perfect fit since he liked to get on the ball and get involved in the game, using his natural knack for gliding past markers.

Thankfully for Geronimo, in his teenage years, he caught wind of Nico O'Reilly who was making a name for himself on City's books, and it suddenly clicked - Geronimo had always played a similar game, he'd just never really seen how it could be used on the pitch until Guardiola had the brainwave of sticking O'Reilly at left back and allowing him to drift forwards and invert. Geronimo suggested it to his coach at the time and - with a few strong words of "encouragement" from Geronimo's Mam - the coach decided to mix things up a bit, and gave the new system a go with Geronimo in the O'Reilly role.

Results were instead - Geronimo started bossing games and soon enough, the scouts followed. He was snapped up by Stockholm IK's academy, and he's set to make his bow in the Class of '26.

They say you can take the boy out of South London, but you can't take South London out of the boy. Nick Kasak is that South London Boy.

"I don't remember the first time I kicked a football, but it was probably in the street. I do remember the first window we broke."

Street football progressed quickly to 5-a-sides under floodlights after school, at weekends or whenever there was time.

"The school playground had these high fences that we used to joke was to stop you escaping - but when we played it meant the ball never went out of play so you never stopped. We called it cageball and we used to run ragged." some of his friends reminisced with us.

The school team found a star in Kasak, top scorer year after year, but grades started to suffer as the obsession to be the best took over. Playing for several different teams, both casually and for organised youth teams meant burnout was on the horizon.

Kasak's father stepped in. "I told him he has to reign it in or risk losing the lot before he's got it. I told him he could play 2 matches a week, and play with mates or train the other two, but three nights a week he needed to get some work done, and get some sleep!"

Nick credits his Dad for helping steer him the right way, before coach Luke Sligo took him under his wing for Burgess Lions, a highly successful junior team playing out of Burgess Park.

"I told him its easy to be the player up top in the teams he was in before, where he was the obvious star" Sligo tells us, "but we didn't need a striker, we needed a winger."

Naturally left footed, it didn't take long for Kasak to adapt, soon enjoying his role right on the touchline, sometimes swapping flanks with his teammates, and still managing to occasionally get on the scoresheet. In time, of course, the SSL came calling and he's leaving the junior game behind.

Pacy and tall, Kasak seemed to have found his niche, and now about to embark on his Academy journey into the SSL with Adowa Accra, the 18 year old is ready to drink it all in and continue his upward trajectory.

Approved. Shoutout dad for keeping Nick on track!

Never really had the academy route growing up. I wasn’t getting picked up or brought into setups like some others were around me. For me, it was always grassroots football, week in, week out, just playing wherever we were scheduled. Some pitches were decent, others were far from it, but that never really mattered. It was about turning up and getting on with it.
I remember the early mornings, especially in winter. Cold air, stiff legs, and getting changed in the car more often than not because there wasn’t much else available. Looking back, those are probably the moments that stick with me the most. There wasn’t any pressure or spotlight, just a genuine love for playing and improving, even if I didn’t fully know where it might lead.
If I’m being honest, there were times I felt overlooked. You see others getting chances and you start to question it, but it can go one of two ways. You either let it knock you back or you use it as motivation. For me, it definitely pushed me. I kept backing myself, kept working on my game, and focused on becoming someone who could actually influence matches rather than just being another name on the team sheet.
That’s really where “Wynne’s Wonderland” comes from. It’s not about being perfect or playing within rigid systems. It’s about enjoying the game, getting on the ball, driving forward, taking players on, and trying to create something. It won’t always come off, and I’m fine with that. I’d rather play with intent and take risks than sit back and play it safe.
Now stepping into the SSL feels like a proper opportunity to test myself. It’s a different level, better players, and more eyes watching, but the mindset doesn’t change. I’m going in the same way I always have. Work hard, express myself, and see how far I can take it.

**RoyRivers**

Roy Rivers was born in a small town in the outskirts of Lisbon, Portugal, called Cacém. His father was a respected lawyer with his own practice, his mother a very successful accountant at a large multinational. Roy Rivers was always prepared by his parents to be a medical doctor, or a lawyer, or some other high stakes job like that. Those were his parents plans for him all along.

However, Roy Rivers had other plans, you see, his grandfather on his father side was somewhat of a soccer legend, named José Águas, who played alongside world legend Eusébio, and won the Champions League at Sport Lisboa Benfica.

Roy Rivers grew up listening to his grandfather’s stories, watching the pictures, watching the recordings of the games, watching these memories of his grandfather winning it all in the soccer field, and since he was three years old, he had a dream of making it big, playing for Sport Lisboa Benfica and winning it all in the Champions League.

While his parents basically had no time for him, because of their demanding jobs, Roy spent a lot of time being raised by his grandparents. His grandfather took him to games, to meet the famous soccer players at Benfica, and soon Roy was asking to join a soccer academy.

No matter how much his parents tried to give him other interests, Roy wasn’t having none of it. He had soccer in his blood, and you could tell by watching him on the field, playing with kids his age, even older kids, how good he was with his right foot, his left foot, the control of the ball, the ease and the natural fitness to play the game.

He was enrolled at Real Sport Club, and he started playing Left Back, then Center Back, then really started to enjoy the most playing at Center Midfielder, where he would control and organize the whole game for his team, with a bit of a knack to go to the front and score some goals. Attacking Midfielder was kind of where he shined the most to be honest.

Reece Munro (Born 16th Feb 1999) was born and raised in Scotland, and from the age of 4 was rarely seen without a ball, often landing himself in trouble with his parents for playing with it indoors. As he grew up, he spent countless hours upon hours playing football with his friends… or even alone, to him it didn't matter, all that mattered to him was messing around with the ball and trying out new tricks he’d seen on the early days of YouTube. Watching clips of players like Ronaldinho and immediately going outside to try the latest skill.

As he left boys' club football, he would find the skill moves fading from his game and being replaced by a far more relaxed, controlling playstyle. He would float around junior clubs (Semi-Pro football in Scotland) where he gained a reputation amongst players and fans alike as someone who just doesn’t panic, and whilst he never was the quickest player you’ve ever seen, he never needed to be, as he excelled in his positioning and being where he needed to be and when. He would soon find himself gaining a nickname amongst fans of his teams as “The Midfield Controller”, with play working its way through him, and he knew how and when to control the tempo based on the circumstances in the game.

With the ability to find the dangerous through ball in the transition forward, Munro would often find himself making a good connection with his wide players. One such player would be Bruce MacAllister, when they both played for Irvine Meadow. Munro’s ability to find the through balls to match MacAllister’s runs was almost robotic, like Robben and cutting in on his left foot… everyone knew what was coming, but they were helpless to stop it. Both players would thrive during their time there and would see themselves growing in confidence week by week until ultimately their ways would part when Reece would see himself trialling at Milngavie to make a step up and truly test himself.

This would be where he meets the 2nd player he ever truly had a telepathic-like connection with, Barry McGlynn. McGlynns ability to stretch the opposition's defence and cause chaos really complemented Munro’s ability to float around calmly as the defence would be too panicked at what McGlynns was up to that they would often forget where he even was and allowed him to drift into pockets of spaces where he could supply that killer pass.

Whilst their time together was brief, they both mentioned their desire to make it in the SSL and were determined to do whatever they could to make it. Munro then got in touch with MacAllister to inform him and encourage him to also try out. Ultimately, all 3 would back themselves and go for it, with them all doing enough to get drafted to the Academy.

Whilst on opposing teams, he wishes MacAllister nothing but the best and hopes he can play alongside him again in the major leagues!

Approved can't wait to see what you do in the majors when you get there!
