We're so honored to announce our recent receipt of a SIA Grant to provide durable benches for our home and guest teams on every soccer field next year!
Very special thanks to Emily Rogers who pursued this grant for us and who works tirelessly to create the best experience for our players, coaches, guests, and community.
This expense is one that falls outside the budget funded by our sponsors and player fees, and by securing outside funding, we are able to better support our players without further financial burden to our local supporters.
SIA grants provide capital funding for items that sustain organizations and provide a measurable, long-lasting impact for non-profits in Indiana. Of the 372 applicants we are grateful to be one of 20 Indiana non-profits to receive grant funding this year.
