Helio Sanchez’s journey to playing soccer started since everyone in his family has also played the sport. Ever since Helio was little, he fell in love with the game since his dad encouraged him to play. His motivation comes from his family. When Helio is playing, he likes seeing his little sister cheer his name while his family watches the games. It brings him joy and excitement to see that, looking in the stands and seeing his parents happy. He is proud to be a big part of the team. One of Helio’s goals for this season are to hit 50 goals and to win CIF with the team. His favorite artists include Fuerza Regida or Ivan Cornejo. Outside of soccer Helio likes to explore nature and go out with his family. He would recommend putting in the work and stay motivated in school if you plan to play soccer.
