Objectives are to give the opportunity to play soccer on a high level to those in need, specifically the low income community. Unite the community in a way that provides everyone a chance to play on an even playing field. We will develop players and help them get scholarships to play. We will have player sponsorship packages for potential sponsors to help support inner city players.
