The Soccer for Life program needs a bus to carry kids to soccer games, tournaments and to pick up coaches. Because of new rules of the government of Honduras, donated buses must be newer than 1998.

A) Travel to games and practices
Land is very expensive in La Esperanza. There are very few soccer fields. As a result the usable soccer fields are outside of town, usually 7-12 miles away. That means walking or at best bicycling. That means that kids have to work very hard before they come to a game. Intibuca is a very large state. The team in La Esperanza wants to play against a team in Yer- Marangilla, about 20 miles away, getting all the kids to come and play is almost impossible
Soccer Parents in Intibca do not attend games or support their kids. When you make $2 per day, working 10-12 hours of stoop labor, when you come home you don't want to have to take your kids to a soccer practice. So the kids have to get there on their own. The soccer field is the one place where the young people experience caring. And we want to show them we care by getting them a bus so they can join with their fellows and play.

B. The Problems of Coaching Staff
La Esperanza is high in the mountains where it often rains at night. Most of the volunteer coaches do not have cars, but use bicycles. The coaches meet each Tuesday night in La Esperanza. Some of the coaches bicycle 20 miles up and down unlighted, dirt roads to get to these weekly meetings. At the meeting the use of the few soccer fields is allocated, referees are assigned and practice fields assigned. The meetings are held from 7 PM to 9:30. That means it is usually raining and when it rains in La Esperanza, it rains. As a result these coaches who have given their time to these youth have to bicycle in the cold rain back to their communities.
In La Esperanza, temperature can down into the high 40s. But there are no heaters in the average home. They simply say "Que frio" or "es muy helado".
So we need a bus to bring coaches to clinics, to the free training courses we are planning, to tournaments and meetings.
The government of Honduras has passed a law about what year vehicles can be imported into Honduras. As of today, no vehicle earlier than 1998 can be brought in. The Liga Menor is seeking a dispensation to bring a older school bus. Please let us know if you have a school bus that can be donated to be taken to Honduras.
