WHAT IS TOPSOCCER:
TOPSoccer is a program is designed for athletes with physical and/or cognitive challenges. The success of our program is largely due to our volunteer “Buddies”. Buddies assist the players with soccer drills as well as engage in social skills and provide friendship. The most important part of being a Buddy is to just have FUN with the players! We are more than happy to offer volunteer hours to students who need them for clubs, scholarships, etc.

WHY DO WE NEED A TOPSOCCER PROGRAM?
TOPSoccer was formed to perpetuate the US Youth Soccer mission statement which is, in part, “to foster the physical, mental and emotional growth and development of America’s youth through the sport of soccer at all levels of age and competition.” There are thousands of children with disabilities who need, and can be provided with, the opportunity to play soccer through the TOPSoccer program.
