Soccer Sponsors

Sponsoring Rookies and Youth Soccer teams is a great way to advertise for your business and support a great cause like the Edwardsville YMCA at the same time. The $150 fee covers the cost of having your logo on a team in both the Fall and Spring sessions of soccer at the Edwardsville YMCA. The funds generated from this program go to help offset the costs of the program, keeping the registration fee for the kids as low as possible. This enables a greater number of kids in the Metro-East area to enjoy the sport of soccer than would otherwise be possible.

Download a registration form for more details or call Nate Tingley if you have any questions.
