PARKER POLLAY
OUTSIDE BACK
An Asheville, NC native whose athletic potential was spotted early was selected as a starter on Carolina Day School's varsity team beginning in 8th grade. He began his soccer journey as a skilled striker, leading the league in goals and assists in 2021.
In 2023, following trials and training with several Bundesliga academy teams, he converted to outside back. In the fall of 2023, Parker earned All-State honors, and his team, the Carolina Day Wildcats, finished as runners-up in the NC 3A State Finals. In the spring of 2024, he played as the starting right back for Asheville FC, helping the team reach the UPSL Conference Finals. Parker is currently spending Fall '24 and Winter '25 training at Eture Sports* in Valencia, Spain.
Parker's speed and accuracy in passing & shooting with both feet allow for flexible positioning on the field in both the right & left OB & WB positions. Parker brings an extraordinary level of athleticism to the field. His ability to merge lightning-fast speed and accuracy with impenetrable defensive skills makes him one to watch for '25 roster openings.
*The ETURE Sports has produced more than 45 NCAA Division I level players in the U.S., and more than 65 NCAA players total in the past three years. By maintaining his college eligibility while playing for ETURE, Parker ensures he can continue his academic and athletic pursuits upon his return.
