Congressional Soccer Caucus
 |
As part of the Foundation's ongoing efforts in Washington, DC, we have joined a bipartisan group of Members of Congress in an ambitious effort to establish a Congressional Soccer Caucus. |
What is the Congressional Soccer Caucus?
Its mission is to encourage legislation, activities and events that promote soccer and issues affecting the greater soccer community with our elected officials. These issues include: the increasing demand for playing fields, health and fitness and providing at-risk youth with structured after-school activities through increased access to the sport. The Foundation serves as the government relations arm for the game and provides information and support for the Caucus' efforts.
