For some footballers, life is a pitch. For others, a gym or a rehabilitation pool or a doctor’s office.<br>For Kofi Anshah, his pre-pro life was a bus. A small old and dusty school bus, that would drive all the primary school kids to the games of the Accra Primary School, if their parents were not around. And Kofi would always take the bus. <br>Another bus, barely took the Ghanaian left wing to the national airport, for the long trip to the United Kingdom. It was a bus, newer, more modern and clean, that got him to his uncle’s house in the suburbs of Manchester, were he could start unfolding his talent. Buses of all shapes, sizes and colors would offer Kofi the view of the rainy and cold streets of Northern England, while driving him from High-school to training, from failed trials to failed trials, from youngster football games to Sunday League ones. <br>He would take the morning buses, he would take the night ones. Drivers started to get to know Kofi, ask him about his games, his trials. Some offered to introduce him to a League Two coach, arrange a 1-2 week training in the team. <br>This is when the buses changed. They became more comfortable, bigger. Drivers were not asking to see ticket, he did not have to get up for any old man to sit. Now the buses were full of tactics, teasing between teammates, songs and laughter after a win, anger and annoyance after a loss. Kofi’s first contract offer was made on the bus, while traveling overnight to their next game. He had just turned 18, so his manager was eager to sign him, before someone else did. It was not much, not like the other kids, but it was enough. <br>People were starting to ask him what he would do with the money, most of them if he would buy a car. But Kofi liked the bus, that’s all he knew when they won promotion in League One, in the last games that bus drivers kept telling him that he was one of the best players. But he would never play there. Montreal United had already offered Kofi his big chance to join SSL. He would go to his first training session by bus...<br><br>(381 words)<br><br><br><b><span style='color:blue'>APPROVED</span></b>

Initially he started out in the attacking positions and even a few bits of midfield, but ultimately he fell in love more with playing goalkeeper. He loved every thing about playing that position from a very, very young age. He enjoyed the different jersey, getting to use his hands, and punting the ball as far as he could.<br><br>Due to his parent's moving for their work and employment Problem ended up spending the primary parts of his childhood in a small town called Acre in the northern part of Israel. There he spent many hours in the sun playing soccer amidst the ancient walls of Acre and with beautiful views of the Mediterranean Sea. It was there he began to attract significant attention as a goalkeeper and was soon playing with players well above his age bracket. Eventually the Israeli Soccer Federation began to take note and by the age of just 16 he was practicing with some of the best players in the nation. It was there that he continued to progress and where he eventually caught wind of the fledgling Simulation Soccer League and the new expansion team the Sydney City FC. He officially put his name into the draft and was pleasantly surprised to see himself selected by the Sydney City team. And, to many people's surprise he ended up starting as the team's goalkeeper from Day One. During that Season 2 Sydney nearly shocked the world by winning the title, but fell just short finishing in second place. Meanwhile, Problem proved himself as an apt and capable goalkeeper, even finishing second in the voting for best Goalkeeper award - ultimately the award went to the MVP of the league, but it was still a valiant rookie year. <br><br>From Israel to Sydney and everywhere in between, you can find Certified Problem ready to make some saves!<br><br>364 words<br><br><br><b><span style='color:blue'>APPROVED</span></b>

AJ Williams is a 6'4 200lbs CB from London Ontario. Williams grew up playing a few sports with soccer being his main summer time sport. His parents say that since a young child, Williams was always kicking stuff around, whether that be a ball or any household object. Williams was always an energetic kid, so his parents decided to throw him in summer league soccer to burn him out.<br><br>By the age of 3 Williams joined his first Timbits soccer league. Timbits soccer is basically just young children running around chasing a ball, not really knowing what they are doing, but AJ loved it! He was always ready for his next game and eager to play. During the summer when Williams was not playing league games, himself and the neighborhood kids would be kicking soccer balls around their front yard and really getting the feel of a soccer ball.<br><br>Fast forward to middle school, Williams had still stayed true to his soccer talents and joined the school's team in grade 6. He had already sprouted to 5'8 by that time which was freakishly tall for an 11 year old Canadian white boy. His coach loved the energy Williams would bring and quickly found out that the kid had a powerful leg too. He could out kick all the 7th and 8th graders by a long shot. With this knowledge, his coach knew Williams would fit perfectly on defence. With his speed and big leg, Williams would be able to track down opponents and kick the ball out of trouble. This was genius as Williams fit right in and really enjoyed keeping his net safe. <br><br>After graduating middle school, Williams was recruited by many high schools to come play for them. There were competitive academy leagues to play in as well, but Williams was a home body and just wanted to play with his buddies in school. Most of his classmates went to one high school in their district so Williams followed. Throughout high school Williams was a 5 star recruit, he was scouted by many teams and many leagues, but when the SSL called he knew his decision. Williams would graduate high school and enter the SSL draft immediately. He is super pumped and prepared to bring success to whichever team is willing to take the chance on him.<br><br><b><span style='color:blue'>APPRVOED</span></b>

Hol LeDiver was just a young Welsh lad like anyone else from a normal town known as Llanfairpwllgwyngyllgogerychwyrndrobwllllantysiliogogogoch. Growing up in Anglesey, an island off the northwest coast of Wales, LeDiver grew up working on his father’s dairy farm idolizing football stars such as Ryan Giggs and Gary Speed for their prowess on the field, but as he grew up, he realized he wanted to be more like the hard-tackling defender, Fred Keenor. Keenor was known for his absolute tenacity and would never quit and that is something LeDiver decided he wanted to model when he was just 12 years old.<br><br>LeDiver played a fair bit of football in gym class and eventually the school coach recognized his ability to read plays and make adjustments and of course his great height as he was growing faster than anyone else in his class. His coach would eventually be instrumental in teaching him proper defense and LeDiver thrived under his instruction. LeDiver would be given player of the year awards in his last two years in school and was eventually spotted once again by national scouts who had come to see his team win the championship in his final year.<br><br>Suddenly, Hol LeDiver was off to starting a football career and began it on the U17 Wales National Football team. Unfortunately, he struggled especially during set pieces and it seemed he might be out of his depth on the national stage. To make matters worse, LeDiver took an elbow to the head during a corner and suffered a concussion which ended his season. After failing to qualify for the U17 championships, LeDiver found himself off the team and questioning whether a career in football was really for him. After taking the fall off and working small time jobs over the holidays, LeDiver joined a local club the following year on Anglesey, near his hometown. The Holyhead Town Football Club was part of the Welsh Alliance League and honestly the team was not in great shape, but he felt like he still had something to prove. This time, LeDiver would not fail and Holyhead F.C. won the Northwest Challenge Cup in large part due to having the lowest goals against. Reporters praised the team's terrific defense and especially LeDiver himself for being a crucial part to the team's success.<br><br>Hol LeDiver has now declared for the SSL rookie draft where he hopes to turn into a star player for his team and hopefully earn his place on the national team.<br><br>417 words<br><br><br><span style='color:blue'><b>APPROVED</b></span>

Jack Coleman was born in Chatham, Kent, not too far from London but far enough that it’s definitely Kent and not somewhere you want to go. Famous for its rubbish Historical Dockyard and nothing else, it is not somewhere you ever want to go which might explain why Coleman is so eager to join the SSL and escape the place.<br>Growing up as the second youngest of four siblings, Coleman has always had great examples to look up and to try and be better than. John, the oldest of his siblings, set the bar high by getting a degree from Cambridge, becoming captain of a professional sports team and starting his own thriving business. His sister is also training to become a physiotherapist at King’s, continuing the family tradition of sports-based careers. Finally, his younger brother is still in school and whilst being very into sports is still undecided as to whether he will get a normal career or become a professional sportsperson like his brothers. <br>Jack himself, after studying Sport at school, attended Loughborough University and gained his own degree in Sport and Exercise Science. His sporting experience started in school, getting on the first squad for hockey. He also played rugby and cricket for the school at a high level, but his main focus was hockey. He was even selected several times for various national teams and won the BUCS National Championship. <br>However, after his mother started making comments about how playing hockey was not a valid career choice given the limited professional opportunities, Jack decided to follow his brother’s career plan by switching sports to go pro. After being told by John that he absolutely was not allowed to play the same sport as him, Jack decided to take up football, which he at least already knew how to play.<br>Now Jack finds himself preparing to join the SSL. Having not played competitive football since he was a very young boy, he may not have as much experience as other players, but he is a proven athlete with the ability to perform at high levels and has experience at playing with a team and at playing defence.<br><br><b><span style='color:blue'>APPROVED</span></b>

Following in the foot steps of the great Oliver Kahn, is the wannabe who can't stop a single shot taken on him, as a young kid I was always forced in to the net because I was the tallest not only that but I was always picked last in gym class, but all it did was grow a passion for me to become better, endless days and nights were spent in the backyard pr6atcing in my little goal with a rebounder setup in front of me as I never stopped until I made at least 25 saves in a row, there was so much room for me to improve I had the height to become a goalie and that was the only reason but soon came the rest around me the agility and positioning was the next things I worked on, as I finally reach my last couple years in school I began to get noticed by a couple scouts, then came the next step to increase my chances to go pro was an academy as I gained interest from local teams in Germany and their academy it was my home town of Karlsruhe who was the first academy to offer me a spot to show my talents, being a smaller team in Germany that was not shown much light I knew it was going to be hard to get my name out there but I was up for the task as I took on the first session of training showing the coaches that I should be the starter for the up coming season, after many weeks of hard work and determination in the off season it was finally time to start off my academy career. Opening day came and I was the starter with everything to prove we went into the game massive underdogs but we showed as a team what are intentions in this league were as we managed to close out a narrow 1-0 win to start off the season, many months later the last game of the season we were tied for top and we then played each other to close it out winner takes all, we came out very strong managing to go up 2-0 in the first half but it was far from over, at the start of the second half we gave up a quick goal bringing them within grabbing distance of a comeback for them to take the league all they need was a draw and they sure did push for it, in the last minuets of the game out number 6 went in for a reckless challenge in the corner of the box and gave away a penalty, all the fans went silent for me to concentrate, I stared into the soul of the taker as he tired to give me the eyes I knew his plan as he tried to panenka it down the middle but I stayed with it to win us the title as the ref blew for full time as I kicked the ball down the field, I went from being picked last in school to being on everyone radar I knew it was time to take the next step, and that would be to takeover the SSL.<br><br>words - 541<br><br><b><span style='color:blue'>APPROVED</span></b>

Born in the former capital of Germany, Bonn, to Ivorian and German parents, Abdoulaye Camavinga quickly took a liking to everybody's favorite sport, football - growing up in that country, there simply is no way around it. Growing up in one of the hotbeds for German football certainly helped as well. From there on, it soon became obvious that he would achieve more than just the occasional pick-up game after school. Always a tall kid, he switched back and forth between playing defensive and striker positions up until the under 11 y/o squads. <br>It was there, playing for the youth outfit of his hometown club Bonner SC, that he settled for primarily the centre back position. Another two years forward, Bundesliga club 1. FC Köln managed to sign the youngster away for their own young squads. Gaining some exposure here, he was subsequently called upon for the U15 regional selection of the West German football federation, which is one level below the youth national team. A growth spurt allowed him to further shine as a player. While he never made the leap upwards to the youth national team, he was always somewhat on the radar for it - not making the cut though in the end.<br>Camavinga made a name for himself as a feisty, no-nonsense defender - showing a lot of promise and potential, however remaining pretty raw in his playing style.<br>It had been a great honor for him when at the age of 17, he was invited to join the <i>Effzeh</i>'s Bundesliga team for their preseason training camp. A year later, he was loaned out to Waldhof Mannheim, a team in Germany's third pro tier, to gain his first professional experience. Despite being hobbled by injuries every now and then, he still managed to rack up 21 appearances for Mannheim, starting in 14 of these. Over the course of the season, he did not manage to register a scorer. Thereafter he tried to play his way into Köln's Bundesliga side, but was loaned out again at the start of next season, this time to 2. Bundesliga side FC Hansa Rostock. In a tougher competition, Camavinga still made his mark despite primarily serving as a backup. He appeared in 15 matches and even scored his first pro goal, heading in a corner for a crucial 2-2 draw in extra time for the <i>Kogge</i> against SC Paderborn.<br>Because of Köln's summer transfers, he failed to get a footing in the Bundesliga team again and decided to part ways. He is now a free agent, eager to move forward with his career.<br><br>Words- 432<br><br><b><span style='color:blue'>APPROVED</span></b>

Berocka Aloisi has a lot to live up to in the world of Soccer. His father John Aloisi is a household name to any Australian soccer fan as he lead the socceroos to the world cup back in 2006. Berocka usually to avoid this doesn’t use his last name much when talking to people. He wanted to create a legacy for himself on his own back and not just riding his fathers coattails. <br>He grew up in Parramatta a small town outside of Sydney where he started playing soccer at 4 years old. He was not a skilful young kid but he thoroughly enjoyed the sport. He stuck with it and was always in the lowest grade team for his age group. When he turned 15 in the offseason he went through a massive growth spurt and going through puberty he built up a bit of a physique. Going back to soccer that season he went from being a player that the manager had to try and hide on the field when he was a sub, to being a big target man in the box. This was the best season he ever had getting 3 hattricks and in the 20 game season scored 43 goals. With his newly found height he could rise above all the defenders and head some beautiful goals home. <br>During this time with all his new found skills in soccer his academic life suffered as he knew he could make a living as a professional soccer player. This upset his family and he ended up quitting school early and joining the training squad for the Brisbane Roar, he found a part time job and some accommodation and made it his goal to be the best soccer player he could be.<br>He moved up the ranks until he managed to make the A-league side the Brisbane Roar. He excelled here for quite some time. He soon became the leagues best player and Berocka knew he was destined for more. He decided he wanted to travel the world and see what was out there. The SSL was where he had his sights set as he could visit so many countries and also play in one of the most prestigious leagues in the world.<br><br><b><span style='color:blue'>APPROVED</span></b>

Mega Mind was born in metro city. Mega Mind is completely blue and had no experience in Soccer before coming to the <s>Sussy league</s> soccer sim league. He decided to come to the S S L after realizing that his giant forehead would make a perfect surface to deflect a 450 gram soccer ball. He also knew with the massive brain behind that forehead he would be able to calculate all of the various angles and vectors needed to score the ball from anywhere on the pitch, yes he can hit a header from his own goal off an opponent's corner kick. I would call this an incredible feat of strength that is unmatched by all others in the league, and it should prove to be of great value to any team he is on. The story of how he discovered this power comes from a battle he had with metro man in metro city. Mega mind had robbed a bank and was making his great escape with his brain bots and minion. Metro man quickly arrived on the scene and began to try to foil Mega Mind's plan by throwing soccer balls at him. Naturally mega mind sent his brain bots to defend him but eventually one got through and smacked him right in the head. As he was falling Mega Mind noticed the ball had deflected from his head perfectly into a basketball goal nearly a block a way! This inspired mega mind to do what he thought was impossible and take up basketball as a sport, to clean up his act and to become a professional athlete. After 2 years of strenuous work and practice mega mind finally decided to take his talent to the WSBL, but only after 30 minutes he realized that his idea of using his head was not made for basketball. Feeling gloomy he went to buy himself some ice cream, and upon his arrival he noticed a team of juvenile soccer players celebrating a tournament win. That's when it finally connected, he was meant for soccer and not basketball! And now here we are, beginning his career with his glorious melon ready to devestate the world of soccer.<br><br><!--c1--><table border='0' align='center' width='95%' cellpadding='3' cellspacing='1' id='CODE-WRAP'><tr><td><b>CODE</b> </td></tr><tr><td id='CODE'><!--ec1-->366<!--c2--></td></tr></table><!--ec2--><br><br><b><span style='color:blue'>APPROVED</span></b>
