Overview

Mission

Support youth sports and development to allow players to achieve their goals and build their skillset.

What it reported doing in 2025

Players are developing physical and emotional skillsets, while building comradery with teammates that will last a lifetime. The organization creates a fun and competitive environment that pushes each person to do their very best. The players will play with and against each other for years to come. Having the foundational skills will allow these players the opportunities to play at the next level and broaden their network.

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 100% 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

SUPPORTED - The filed numbers largely add up and a large share of available resources goes toward mission work. A relatively small share of voting board members are independent and some filing-based governance responses are negative or unanswered.
