Deadline November 30, 2012 Midnight Eastern Standard Time

Grants- Each November the NSCAA FOUNDATION solicits grant applications and conducts a grant review process to award grants to soccer programs and soccer clubs serving targeted, underserved areas and communities. The NSCAA FOUNDATION invites charitable 501(c)3 non-profit charitable organizations to submit an application for a grant.

Grants underwrite the costs of sending NSCAA Coaching Academy staff members to a soccer organization's location to host an NSCAA Coaching Academy non-residential diploma course for its own coaches at its own location. Grant applications must demonstrate financial need and be able to show how the grant will benefit underserved groups and communities.

Please consider the opportunity to take advantage of these benefits for you and your club.

Funding for grants is made available through the unrestricted fund, the general endowment, as well as our special named endowment funds- the adidas Fund, Miller Bugliari Fund, Walter Chyzowych Fund, Michael L. Curry Fund, Anson Dorrance Fund, Gooding-Crosby Fund, and the Jerry and Marilyn Yeagley Fund.

ALL grant applications must be emailed. All applications must be received no later than November 30, 2012 by midnight Eastern Standard Time.

The NSCAA FOUNDATION'S mission is to provide soccer coaching education opportunities to underserved socioeconomic communities, geographic areas, and ethnic groups throughout the United States. The Foundation firmly believes in the broader societal benefits of soccer as a recreational activity, an avenue for health and fitness, a means of building leadership skills, and a competitive sport. We believe we can provide these benefits through soccer coaching education. The Foundation's primary program activity is direct financial support through grants and through scholarships for coaching education programs.
