Shownotes

Filmmaker, producer, director, and lover of "the Beautiful Game," George Valencia has been making a difference for decades providing opportunities for kids that didn't previously exist. As the founder of the Sound of Gol Foundation, George has created the animated character, La Golda, that has opened up conversations in areas that were once untouched.

Now he embarks on his most ambitious project ever: sending young Latinas to England and Watford FC to further their coaching careers. For many of these young, brave women, it is their first trip to Europe, and what they bring back to their club is nothing short of life changing.
