Mega Soccer Retailer Partners with Girls Soccer Network on Mentorship Program

SOCCER.COM is partnering with Girls Soccer Network to grow its mentorship program, Soccerista United.

LOS ANGELES, California, 2023-May-17 — /EPR Network/ — Online soccer super-store SOCCER.COM will sponsor Soccerista United for its summer session. The program pairs college athletes with girls in the Girls Soccer Network community to become mentors. In addition to fanning it out to their partner clubs and leagues, they will buy 20 program packages, one for each program mentor and provide t-shirts for the girls.

This sponsorship will introduce Soccerista United to various clubs around the country and connect the players with college mentors in close proximity to the colleges the mentors attend. The idea behind this is that mentees will be able to attend their mentor’s games and build a close relationship with them. The program is expanding this year by launching its first camp this summer, coached by UC Irvine’s Scott Juniper and assisted by the college mentors in the area involved in the program.

We’re excited to partner and support Girls Soccer Network in their unique and inspiring program, Soccerista United. The program exemplifies the values and mission that SOCCER.COM has at its core; to deliver quality soccer products to girls at every level of the game,” a SOCCER.COM spokesperson said.

Soccerista United allows girls to grow their game by being mentored by elite college athletes from across the country. The college mentors lead group and individual meetings about various topics. The topic for June is “Confidence on the Field,” and July’s is “How to Prepare for Club Soccer Tryouts/College ID Camps.”

There is so much in youth soccer to navigate and more and more girls want to play at the college level, so this seemed like a perfect opportunity to serve our community and grow our experiential offerings,” said Jen Gruskoff, the co-founder of the bustling media platform.
