david beckham unicefAccording to the Canadian Press, David Beckham is in Brazil to announce his third soccer academy–the Beckham World of Sport.

“I am honoured to be associated with this incredible project, which will build world class sporting facilities in Brazil, hopefully having a major impact at a local level and internationally,” David said to DavidBeckham.com

The centre will include eight soccer fields and there will be a scholarship program for Brazilian children so that they may have the oppurtunity to attend the academy.

“I am incredibly proud of the work my Academies do both in London and Los Angeles and I am happy Brazilian children will benefit from access to the top class facilities and coaching at this resort,” David said.
