Queen City Mutiny (Charlotte, NC)
This is a huge incentive for our club and is going to help us transport underprivileged families to and from training, but also to away games that had been difficult previously. We are so grateful to receive this, and we look forward to investing it in a passenger van that will allow all of our players to continue their development in MLS NEXT.
– Executive / Academy Director, Rani Ghaziri.
Tormenta FC (Statesboro, GA)
We at Tormenta live and breathe soccer and this program is so important for us. Our families are going to benefit incredibly from it, but more than that, this will create a significant trickle-down effect for future generations of players at Tormenta. We cannot thank DoorDash and MLS NEXT enough for selecting us as a Delivering Access recipient.
– Director of Coaching, Stefan King.
Chula Vista FC (Chula Vista, CA)
The MLS NEXT Delivering Access presented by DoorDash funds will allow our club to continue delivering a professional training environment in a community with many needs. This award will allow us to keep up with costs to maintain top fields, coaches, and equipment to compete at the highest level in MLS NEXT. Thank you to DoorDash and MLS NEXT for creating this program, which will help our club immensely.
– Academy Director, J Hector Diaz.
