    Felinos United Soccer Club offers kids from the ages of 6-13 that can’t afford to pay for local soccer clubs. The organization doesn’t ask for any type of fee but only ask the parents to contribute with what they are able to give financially. They don’t do this for the money but for the passion they have for the game of soccer. They do this because every single child should have the opportunity to learn and have this experience of club soccer regardless of their family’s financial situation.

    Having access to this teaches the children social positive behavior, good morals, and discipline. We want the children to value academics as well as their extra curricular activities. Putting sports and education together makes them improve.
