Patrick Apanovicz’s soccer journey began at the age of six when he joined Canada Rush, and he is now on his way to the Rush Premier Sports Academy.


Unfortunately, Patrick’s parents weren’t present in his life, and as a result, he was raised by his grandparents. Despite the challenges he has faced, Patrick’s dedication and talent have led to an exciting opportunity that brought his grandfather to tears of joy. Patrick has expressed his desire to become a professional soccer player and is determined to work hard to achieve his dream.


Rush Changes Lives is committed to helping Patrick reach his goals.
