The MHRS plans to open a homeless shelter for youth and teens with problems in Puerto Vallarta, an issue that has been increasing important here (several local orphanages donnot have facilities for children over 14-years-old).
To begin the fund raising for this project, several famous ex-professional soccer players from Mexico and Hollywood United came to CasaMagna Marriott Puerto Vallarta Resort & SPA to host soccer clinics for kids and a professional exhibition game followed by a cocktail and autograph session this past weekend. A press conference was held this past Friday at Champions Sports Bar to kick off the event.On Sunday, June 17th, Father's Day, a golf tournament at the Vista Vallarta Golf Course offered the general public the unique opportunity to play golf with the Soccer Champions for $1000 pesos per person. A soccer star played in each foursome.
Some of the stars who playied were Eric Wynalda, the all-time leading scorer for the US and member of the National Soccer Hall of Fame; Frank Leboeuf, who won the 1998 FIFA World Cup; Richard Gough, who played for the Scottish National team; Yari Allnutt, a member of the US team at the 1992 Summer Olympics in Barcelona; and Chicago Fire veteran midfielder, David Vaudreuil.
The Mexican soccer stars who attended were "The Killer," Luis Hernández; Adolfo Rios, who is now sports narrator for Televisa; and Indoor National Soccer manager, René Ortiz.
