For Eastridge footballer Cohan Daniels, years of hard work and dedication have earned him an opportunity many young players dream of - a full football scholarship in the United States.

Daniels, a centre-back, has been accepted to Iowa Western University, where he will continue both his studies and football career.

Before he can begin this new chapter, however, he must raise funds to cover travel and visa costs.

Football has been part of Daniels' life since childhood.
