We had the privilege of bringing Soccer for Success to the Jackie's Garden community in Philly, a partner group of our friends at Better Tomorrows. ⚽💙 We welcomed 60 participants for a day of skill development and fun!

Our staff are preparing for the upcoming season of Soccer for Success! ⚽ During a training facilitated by U.S. Soccer Foundation, our team focused on emotional health practices, modeling life skills, and program engagement.

We can't wait to put our skills into practice this season and welcome our aspiring athletes back to the fields and courts. Learn more about Soccer for Success here: https://brnw.ch/21x1O26
