AYSA Village making history again! 💚⚽️

What a beautiful night for our youth. African Youth Sports Academy was honored to be recognized as RAVE’s Community Kids of the Match at Lumen Field!

Seeing our kids on the field, on the big screen, and enjoying the Sounders match together is exactly why we do this work. These are the moments that build confidence, create memories, and show our young people that they belong in these spaces.

A huge thank you to RAVE Foundation and Seattle Sounders FC for continuing to open doors for our youth and for believing in the work of AYSA Village.

We don’t just play soccer, we are building tomorrow’s leaders, one child at a time.

⚽️💙 AYSA VILLAGE SUMMER SOCCER PROGRAM — WEEK 15! 💙⚽️

Another beautiful week at AYSA Village!

Week after week, our young players continue to show up, work hard, learn, build friendships, and grow together. What we’re building is bigger than soccer—we’re building confidence, discipline, leadership, and a strong Village around our children.

A huge THANK YOU to our parents. Your commitment makes this program possible. Thank you for bringing the kids, supporting them from the sidelines, and trusting AYSA Village with their development. We see your hard work and appreciate you. 💙

Special shoutout to Coach Umar, Coach Ahmed, and the entire AYSA team for continuing to pour your time and energy into our youth. Fifteen weeks takes commitment, and you continue showing up for the Village.

And a very special thank you to the RAVE Foundation for believing in AYSA Village and helping make this summer possible for our youth. Your investment continues to create opportunities, memories, and experiences that our children will carry with them.

15 weeks strong—and we’re still going! 💪🏾⚽️

This is the Village.

What an unforgettable week for AYSA Village! 💙⚽

Alhamdulillah.

This week reminded us that when a community comes together, amazing things can happen.

We had the incredible honor of being recognized by the RAVE Foundation and Seattle Reign FC as the RISE Community Partner of the Match, where our youth and families experienced a day they will never forget.

Just a few days later, the RAVE Foundation welcomed our team back to Lumen Field as their guests for the Seattle Sounders vs. Portland Timbers match. Our staff has worked tirelessly all year to serve our youth and families, and this opportunity gave us a chance to celebrate together and recharge for the work ahead.

To the RAVE Foundation, thank you for believing in AYSA Village from the very beginning. You were the first organization to invest in our vision, and your continued support has opened doors that once felt impossible. Your leadership and commitment to youth development inspire us every day.

To Seattle Reign FC and the Seattle Sounders, thank you for welcoming our Village with such kindness and hospitality. These experiences created lifelong memories for our youth, parents, and staff.

Now, our focus turns to Seattle Somali Week 2026. We are just weeks away from bringing our community together for one of the biggest celebrations of sports, culture, family, and community in Seattle.

This is only the beginning.

Today, AYSA Village made history. 💙⚽

Alhamdulillah.

Today was one of the proudest days in the history of AYSA Village.

We had the incredible honor of being recognized by the RAVE Foundation and Seattle Reign FC as the RISE Community Partner of the Match at Lumen Field.

This recognition belongs to every child who has worn an AYSA jersey, every parent who has believed in our mission, and everyone who has supported our journey.

A heartfelt thank you to the RAVE Foundation. You were the first organization to believe in AYSA Village and award us our very first grant. That investment was more than financial support—it was a vote of confidence that helped us continue building opportunities for our youth.

Thank you to Seattle Reign FC for opening your doors and celebrating the impact that community organizations can have through the beautiful game.

It was an honor to bring our youth and families to experience this unforgettable day. Seeing our Village together inside Lumen Field reminded us that dreams can become reality when a community believes in its young people.

A special thank you to my brother and co-founder, Ahmed, for standing beside me throughout this journey. This recognition belongs to all of us.

This is not the end of our story.

This is another step forward as we continue our mission to serve our community.

🌟 A Historic Moment for AYSA Village 🌟

Alhamdulillah.

Tomorrow will be a day our Village will never forget.

We are honored to announce that AYSA Village (African Youth Sports Academy) has been selected by the RAVE Foundation and Seattle Reign FC as the RISE Community Partner of the Match.

This recognition is not just for an organization—it is for every child, every parent, and every family that calls AYSA Village home.

The RAVE Foundation was the first organization to believe in our vision. They awarded AYSA Village our very first grant, opening doors that allowed us to grow and continue serving our youth. They believed in us before many others did, and for that, we will always be grateful.

Because of that relationship, tomorrow Seattle Reign FC will recognize AYSA Village on the field before kickoff, celebrating the impact our Village is making through the beautiful game.

Today also brought another special moment.

A wonderful journalist, Bella, whom I met through a RAVE Foundation event, spent nearly two hours with our Village and our parents. Before she left, she told me something I’ll never forget:

“The Village felt warm and full of love.”

Those words touched my heart because that’s exactly who we strive to be. At AYSA Village, everyone is welcomed with kindness, respect, and an open heart. Our faith teaches us to honor every guest, and I’m thankful she experienced that.

Tomorrow, my brother and co-founder, Ahmed, and I will proudly represent our Village. We carry with us the dreams of every child who has ever worn an AYSA jersey and every parent who has trusted us with their children.

To the RAVE Foundation and Seattle Reign FC—thank you for believing in AYSA Village and for recognizing the power of community, opportunity, and youth development.

This is not the finish line.

This is only the beginning.
