The Foundation’s signature program is designed to introduce the game of soccer and provide life skills through the club’s value model, P.I.T.C.H. Initiated in the summer of 2022, the program has been delivered to 350+ kids throughout five-week or ten-week sessions. In collaboration with youth service providers, the program aims to improve physical and mental health, educational achievement, and personal confidence.
Upon successful completion of the program, participants receive a branded backpack with a ball, shirt, water bottle, and access to additional resources. These resources may include but are not limited to nutritional information, social and emotional learning, mentorship, vision and hearing testing, financial literacy, and tutoring.
Personal growth on and off the field
The P.I.T.C.H. model supports personal growth on and off the field by providing values and life skills to help maximize individual potential. Our approach goes beyond focus on athletic performance and aims to contribute positively to the overall development of youth.
Through proven processes, an evolving curriculum and aligned culture, we are committed to creating value-driven environments that encourage young athletes to strive for their dreams.
We are so thankful for the support from our community!
The On and Off the PITCH program would not be possible without the collaboration and relationships with our community partners. We want to build on the positive impact of others and support the organizations working daily to provide opportunities for youth.
We are always looking for partners! If you would like to partner with us to implement programs or provide resources to support our initiatives, let’s work together! With the wealth of organizations doing great work around us, we know possibilities are endless.
