Behind the Dream

We all share a dream for soccer. We can express it in many ways, but it’s one dream. To grow this game that moves us. To give everyone, everywhere the opportunity to play. To win on the world stage. To nurture a new generation of leaders. To uplift communities. To transform lives. This dream is not a fantasy. It's a destination that we are all working towards. It’s an idea that we can all get behind.

In Service to Soccer.

Every act of support for U.S. Soccer fuels our nonprofit mission in service to soccer. Attending a match, buying a shirt, or making a donation. Behind The Dream: The Campaign for the Future of Soccer in America is an invitation to make a lasting impact on the game that moves us. We welcome all who share these aspirations to join us. Our time is now.

“We’re in a once-in-a-generation moment for soccer in America. This campaign is our opportunity to build something lasting and invest in the people, places, and programs that will shape the future of the game.

"This campaign is supporting the future of soccer for everyone. It will help bring to life the Arthur M. Blank U.S. Soccer National Training Center, one of the most accessible facilities in the world. As Extended National Team athletes, we have reached the pinnacle of our sport. Now, at this world-class facility, we will be able to take our game to the next level and focus on winning world championships.”

“Elite performance does not begin and end on matchday. It requires a full commitment to the facilities, coaches, and staff that support the team each day. Behind the Dream: The Campaign for the Future of Soccer in America ensures that we will have the necessary resources to succeed on the pitch—now and in the future.”

“There’s so much untapped talent in this country. This campaign is going to help us find it—whether it's a kid playing in a small town in Texas or a futsal court in New York. Expanding our scouting means giving more players the chance to be seen, and that’s how we get stronger as a national team.”

Tyler Adams, U.S. Men's National Team

"So many young girls dream of representing their country, but dreams require opportunity. Because I got those opportunities, I know how important those experiences are for a player’s growth. This campaign will enable more competitive opportunities for our Youth National Team players at a critical stage of their development. That’s so important for the future of the U.S. Women’s National Team."

Ally Sentnor, U.S. Women's National Team
