The Nedo Soccer Team, a Lexington-area nonprofit, said it is seeking community support to send its players to a national championship event in Utah.
A Lexington nonprofit soccer team is asking the public for help raising funds and securing resources so its players can compete at a national championship event in Utah, according to WKYT.
WKYT reported that the team, identified as the Nedo Soccer Team, is working to cover the costs associated with the trip and participation, and is seeking assistance through community support.
The request comes as the team looks to bring its players to a multi-team national competition, an event that typically requires travel, lodging, and event-related expenses for youth athletes and their families.
WKYT described the club’s efforts as focused on getting the players to the tournament in Utah, with the team appealing for donations or other forms of assistance to make the trip possible.
The report did not specify the dollar amount the Nedo Soccer Team is seeking, the exact dates of the Utah event, or the full list of what the team needs, beyond the general goal of enabling players to attend.
WKYT’s story indicates the team is turning to community members as a practical way to address those costs, consistent with how smaller youth sports organizations often handle travel expenses when they do not have sufficient funding for out-of-state competitions.
A copy of the WKYT report states the team’s name and location, and highlights the urgency of the fundraising window ahead of the Utah competition.
It was not immediately clear from the report whether additional fundraising events are planned or whether specific deadlines have been set for contributions.
