June 23rd and Jeremiah White is back to work. The Haverford School graduate and Philadelphia native has been a professional soccer player for five years now and it has been one hell of a ride. He developed his skills with the premier local club, FC Delco and took part in the renaissance of soccer at Wake Forest University, under Jay Vidovich. Through all that, White nurtured a dream to play abroad. After college, amidst all the uncertainty of establishing a career in a foreign land, White secured a contract in Serbia with OFK Beograd and the rollercoaster was off. At times seemingly without brakes. Within several years, he had hopped from Beograd to Panserraikos in Greece and then France with Ligue 2 side Gueugnon. Along the way, there were broken promises and a little bit of deception but, in the end, a whole wealth of experience. After White became disenchanted with the Gueugnon’s leadership, he was off to look for another club. In 2006, he found AGF Aarhus and for once, stability in an otherwise turbulent career for a 25-year old Philly native.
