For Alvaro Mora Arellano, soccer has always been his first love. As a young boy, he dreamt of being on a real soccer field dribbling the ball as part of a team. He was introduced to goalball as a teenager in Mexico and liked it because of its similarities to soccer. Mora Arellano attended his first blind soccer clinic in 2019 after seeing an invitation in the USABA monthly newsletter. As a member of the first USA Blind Soccer Men’s National Team named in 2022, he made history by scoring the first goal in the team’s history during an international friendly with Canada.
