Inter Toronto of the Canadian Premier League (formerly known as York United) created a U-14 pathway team for the first time this year and after heading to tryouts, 13-year-old Filippo La Verde got the good news that he was selected to be on the team.
Not only is Filippo a tremendous talent, he also finds time to train other kids at soccer youth clinics to help them with all aspects of the game. In addition, Filippo helps out in the community, participating in activities like litter pickup day.
