BWPC was proud to bring our free Elevate The Next Clinic to Portland in celebration of Pride. Hosted on the community Mini-Pitch, the clinic created a safe and welcoming space for young players to connect, play, learn, and share their stories.

It was especially meaningful to hear directly from participants about what the pitch—and having access to spaces like it—means to them and their community.

Thank you to our partners at the U.S. Soccer Foundation, Sport Oregon, PCFC Soccer, Aspen Institute Project Play, and adidas for continuing to support our efforts to expand access, build community, and elevate the next generation through soccer.
