Mobile application developer, AppTech Corp is providing a service that will link professional soccer recruiters with players in emerging markets worldwide. The company has completed the first phase for developing an app for a soccer development academy located in Parana, Brazil.

The initial rollout includes a website and app called www.silviowalenga.com, which features the premiere Brazilian goal keeper. The website and app provides player information, stats and video of players who are candidates for international soccer opportunities.

Guest +1: Street Soccer Cup 2009

Upon my return from a playing stint in Brazil last year, I came across a television program which detailed the journeys of several teams participating in the Homeless World Cup. It was an amazing testimony to the power of soccer and how these soccer programs are changing countless lives for many whom society counts out.

July 31st-August 2nd, the city of Washington, DC will serve as the host city for the Street Soccer USA Cup 2009. The teams provide homeless men, women and youth with an opportunity to score goals on the field while working to achieve their goals off the field. Players from across this weekend's tournament will be selected to represent the United States of America in the next Homeless World Cup in Milan, Italy.
