According to a chronicle written by María del Carmen Irigoyen and published by El Comercio, one of Peru's most important newspapers, Academia Deportiva Cantolao was kind of a second family for Flores. Cesar Gonzales, who trained Flores both in Academia Deportiva Cantolao and Sport Boys Association, told the author that the other kid's parents used to take care of him, for example, giving him money for him to be able to fly for the team's international tours.
