We have taken the time to critically think through how best to offer an accessible product in line with our mission and values as a nonprofit, while also developing a sustainable business and continuing to offer this opportunity summer after summer. If you would like to discuss this effort further with one of our directors, please don’t hesitate to contact us.

About Program

We offer high school soccer players a unique opportunity in Costa Rica. Join our international service trip and experience cross-cultural connection while contributing to social change. This program offers an immersive cultural experience in a community highly different from our own. It aims to teach community leader skills, inspiring you to give back to other people through community service -- coaching and running soccer clinics for children who do not have access to organized sport.

Soccer is a fundamental aspect of Costa Rica’s ‘Pura Vida’ culture; we will find a trace of the game everywhere we look - from fan-packed stadiums to makeshift goals in open areas. We will stay in Puntarenas and train as a member of Puntarenas FC - a local pro club and coach the younger players too. We will also play soccer in natural outdoor locations, such as in a rainforest or on the beach!
