5 Year Anniversary!

Since our inception in 2019, Level the Playing Field has been committed to breaking down barriers and creating a more inclusive environment for youth soccer in Fresno. We believe that every child should have access to the joys and benefits of playing soccer, regardless of their background or financial circumstances. Through our various programs, including coaching clinics, equipment donations, and scholarships, we have worked tirelessly to make this vision a reality.

As Level the Playing Field Fresno celebrates its remarkable journey of five years, we reflect on the transformative power of soccer in the lives of our youth. To celebrate this special milestone, we are delighted to announce that we are offering five $1000 scholarships towards competitive soccer fees. More information about the application will be released in May 2024, before the competitive soccer tryout window.

The importance of giving away soccer balls

Today we worked to fulfill one of our initiatives to distribute youth soccer balls to aspiring athletes in our community. These soccer balls represent more than just equipment; they symbolize the dreams and aspirations of children who deserve the chance to play, learn, and grow through sports.

By giving away soccer balls, we're not just providing a tool for play; we're fostering a sense of belonging, promoting physical health, and nurturing the next generation of leaders and champions. But our work doesn't stop here; it's about leveling the playing field for all youth, regardless of their socioeconomic status or background. It's about creating a future where every child has the opportunity to thrive, both on and off the field.

As we distribute these soccer balls today, we are reminded of the impact that a simple act of kindness can have. We hope we can continue to champion equality, inclusion, and opportunity in every aspect of our work.

We had another fun-filled day at Fresno Indoor Soccer for our annual free soccer camp. We are thankful to Calviva and FUSD for sponsoring the Health Matters free snack bar and making this camp possible. We also want to express appreciation to the generosity of Fresno Indoor Soccer for allowing us to use their beautifully remodeled space.

Brand new city-sponsored fee waiver program

The City of Fresno, California and Fresno Parks & Recreation (PARCS) just announced their fee-waiver program for city-sponsored sports via #MeasureP. The program allows for a 75% price reduction for families with a household income less than 150% of the federal poverty level. So for a family of 5, this is a household income of $52,700 or less per year. We have heard great things about these program and are so happy that more families can access youth sports.

Most importantly, they offer soccer for kids age 3-6! What a great introduction to our favorite sport!
