Our vision is to create a safe, accessible, and playable soccer field on every K-8 School in North Portland. Currently there are two schools we are working with two bring this into fruition; Astor and Cesar Chavez K-8 schools.
As a community, North Portland has experienced many inequities, including land-use, air quality, and infrastructure for youth activities and sports. The number of playable and accessible fields our community has to offer in comparison to other parts of Portland is lacking. Portland Trailblazers and Portland Timbers have made some key investments in our community to address these disparities, however more is necessary to meet the demand.
Our mission is to serve our diverse community through building interest in youth soccer and making it more accessible. We aim to level the playing field and provide students with access to premium playing surfaces earlier in their academic journey. This will directly foster a love for soccer, playing outdoors, and living active, healthy lifestyle among kids from our community.
