Will Selva was raised by two Nicaraguan parents who instilled in him the principles of their culture and their Nicaraguan principles. Will's parents were immigrants who were determined to begin a new successful life together in the United States. Growing up, Will Selva recognized his parents hardship and that they had been determined to give their family and themselves a better life.
Will's parents continued to instill in Will his Nicaraguan principles and background by ensuring that Spanish was his first language and the only language spoken in their home.
Will Selva has been both thankful and prideful for that very fact ever since. It would prove to be a valuable asset down the road in his sports broadcasting career, but being bilingual was just part of his unique background. Growing up, Will felt a binding connection to the careers of Nicaraguan sports legends such as boxer Alexis Arguello and pitcher Dennis Martinez.
Will Selva admires Hispanic athletes across sports including baseball, football and soccer. These include athletes such as Diego Maradona, Anthony Munoz or Manu Ginobili. Today, Will Selva is committed to sharing their stories and countless others as it relates to a growing Hispanic population in the US. Will Selva has done interviews in Spanish and English, moderated forums on reaching the Hispanic sports fan, created a college football segment and hosted shows in his native tongue. Will Selva hopes to introduce more members of the public to Hispanic athletes and ensure that they are educated about their backgrounds.
