TOPSoccer is an amazing program! It opens up the game of soccer to any boy or girl, who has a mental or physical disability. It started small, as a grassroots effort by parents with a wonderful vision. Then US Youth Soccer nurtured it. Now, with the generous backing of Uniroyal Tire, it's fast becoming one of the most widely praised youth sports programs in America - while keeping true to its grassroots approach. It goes right along with US Youth Soccer's mission "to foster the physical, mental, and emotional growth and development of America's youth through the sport of soccer at all levels."
Why do we need TOPSoccer? So that every kid can know the rewards of playing on a team, of trying to score - of being in the game! It brings a sense of accomplishment and sheer joy to kids who otherwise would have to sit on the sidelines. Parents can't praise it enough, the siblings enjoy helping and cheering, the kids' laughter and enthusiasm are infectious - In this program, everyone comes away a winner. I hope you'll get involved in TOPSoccer in your community.
