Description
Our curriculum connects soccer skills to life skills, giving players the tools they need to unlock the promise in themselves. By hosting community-based tournaments and showing up each day for practices and games, we create the space for players to cultivate trusting relationships, connect to local social services, and build the skills and confidence to succeed. And because every community is unique, we tailor our approach to fit their own vision of success-whether it’s building a safe, healthy place for community members to call their own, or supporting local organizations so more kids have the chance to play the beautiful game. From after-school programs, to adult training sessions, we provide more opportunities for all players to have fun, work hard, and lift each other up-on and off the field.
