As noted earlier this week, the young women of the Cleveland Ambassadors soccer team, journeyed to Mexico on a mission trip to help those in serious need. These young women sacrificed time away from their family, friends and teammates to help countless amounts of young boys and girls in poverty struck area’s of Mexico.
These young women should be commended for their courage, time, dedication and willingness to go above and beyond the field of play, to make a real difference in lives that sorely needed it. Every once and awhile, life goes far and beyond sports, this was one of those times.
Here are just a few examples (provided in the videos below) of the courage and difference that the Cleveland Ambassadors made on their trip.
