The first step in this movement is the Soccer at Schools Starter Kit, a free and practical toolkit built for teachers, schools, clubs, and community partners who want to bring soccer to life.

Making soccer possible in every school in the United States.
Soccer at Schools is a national effort led by Soccer Forward in partnership with Bank of America to ensure every child can access the joy and benefits of soccer, not just on a team, but where they already are: in school.
Right now, the opportunity to play soccer at school is not available across the country. The result? Missed chances for play, movement, connection, and confidence building, at a time when young people are facing record levels of physical inactivity and mental health challenges.
We believe soccer can help make a difference.
A future where every student in the United States can experience soccer in a high-quality, safe, inclusive and accessible way.
And where the game is used as a force for good, supporting social-emotional learning, belonging, and healthier school communities.
