Sylar Griffin
His Beginning
Sylar started playing soccer when he was three years old and has since then developed an insatiable hunger for the beautiful game. Along his way he has been met with many obstacles, many in the form of individuals telling him "He was not ready" or not selecting him for a team or to progress in programs. In the light of those remarks, he has vowed to himself (in his exact words at 7 years old) “That I will not step on a field and they not know who I am!” His passion and work ethic have led him to be a success on and off the pitch. In many of the programs he attends or teams he plays with, he is advanced to play with older or more skilled players and is recognized for his speed and teamwork. At the age of 9-years old he has recently been selected as a top player in the Soccer Youth All-American program and been invited to play in the All-American Golden Cup tournament. In the same breath, he was evaluated amongst 6,500 other participants of the FC Barcelona soccer camps around the US, as was selected to be able to attend training at the renown FC Barcelona facilities in Spain with their amazing coaches.
