In January 2001, GFL was born with the mission of raising funds for women's health initiatives. Since that time, we have weathered the storm of life changes, field issues and a pandemic, and still managed to raise and donate $613,156 with your help. Over the past few years we have seen fewer teams participating as a number of us age out of playing and we have dealt with exponentially-increasing costs. This year we came to the difficult decision that it is time to close this chapter.



GFL will be having one final fundraising party on Sunday, June 1 from 4-7pm and then will end this 24-year journey. Thank you for your support all of these years. It has been our honor and privilege to work together with all of you on our shared mission.

Tickets are now available for Goals for Life Final Whistle at Tierney's Tavern, NJ on Sun 1 Jun 2025 at 4:00PM. Click the link for further information and to secure your tickets now!

We're sorry to announce that the 2023 Goals for Life Women's Soccer Tournament will not take place on June 3. Essex County Parks Dept has scheduled field improvements in Brookdale Park in early June, limiting the number of fields available to us. We plan to be back next summer in full force!
We're working on an indoor tournament this fall--keep your eyes on this page for more announcements.
We're grateful to our supporters and we can't wait to see you on the pitch soon!
