Overview

Mission

Spectrum soccer academy's primary exempt purpose is to allow children to participate in a group sport environment and improve their soccer skills even if they do not have the time or inclination to commit to a team. The academy is able to continue their mission of 90% of time devoted to ongoing instructional activites for organized teams, 8% for regular and seasonal instructional activities for children not limited to team participants, and 2% to clinics for youth soccer coaches. Over 100 families participated in the annual fund raiser - "wing ding". Over 3,00 was raised to pay referee fees, facility rental, purchase uniforms and credits to families participating. Approximately 50 families participate in the volunteer portion of our organization and were able to earn credits based upon events worked.

Operating model

Revenue model
Earned-program. 100% 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

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