For the past six years, through international tournaments and city leagues Street Soccer Canada has been working on including those, who may otherwise be excluded, through physical activity and sport. Their yearly national soccer tournament aims to develop soccer skills while at the same time looking to more broadly develop inclusive strategies to empower and instill hope as well as to improve team, communication and health.
The 2014 Canadian Street Soccer Games are coming to North Vancouver May 29th – 31st and Street Soccer Canada is in need of event sponsors! This includes sponsorship of breakfast, lunch and dinner for the 11 homeless teams (approximately 150 players) who will be visiting from across the country.
We invite you to join community members, sponsors and the awareness group at an upcoming information session where you can learn more about the tournament and the benefits of this fantastic program:
Date & Time: February 20th at 7 pm
Location: Alliance Church at 23rd & Lonsdale Avenue, North Vancouver
Please direct inquiries regarding the tournament and sponsorship opportunities to Charles at 604-679-1506 or c57mac@yahoo.com.
We encourage you to forward these details to any local businesses or individuals who may be interested in supporting the Canadian Street Soccer Games.
