The organization also runs programs that include clinics and time for each team to have winter practices - all of which utilize professional trainers and some of which have expenses related to rental of space. The organization runs a large soccer tournament for northern nj towns over father's day weekend. The organization pays for many of its teams to enter a fall tournament.

Operating model

Revenue model
Earned-program. 99% of the money available for current operations came from fees and other program revenue.
Distribution model
Direct operator. The filing allocates 99% of reported program-service expenses outside its grant, affiliate-payment, and member-benefit lines. This expense classification does not rule out separately announced grant awards.

The verdict

STRONG - A large share of available resources goes toward mission work and the filed numbers largely add up. Some filing-based governance responses are negative or unanswered and expenses are high relative to revenue.
