Adopt A Team

The Adopt A Team Program is designed to provide opportunities for service for youth groups, soccer clubs, soccer associations, soccer teams and others to share with kids in Honduras who would love to play soccer but do not have the resources.

We are seeking to find soccer teams in the USA to adopt soccer teams in Intibuca.

North American soccer youth, soccer clubs and soccer teams. You are invited to create a long term relationship with a team in the Liga de Las Comunidades Intibucanas. The Liga de Las Comunidades Intibucanas is located in the cool high mountain pine forest of Intibuca. The players are in clean, high mountain villages free from gangs and filled with kids whose only passion is soccer. They play it in the streets. They play it on the fields. And they want to play it with you.

You are invited to "Adopt ATeam". What does it mean? That means you become part of a cross-country Soccer Community. It means your team will come to Intibuca and play in the annual Youth Leadership Tournament in  Intibuca.  It means your team will share its old soccer gear, nets, balls with your team in the Liga de Las Comunidades Intibucanas. That means you create long term friendships with the players on your team. It means you learn enough Spanish to communicate with your team. It means you write letters to your team members. (The Liga de Las Comunidades Intibucanas will translate the letter for you). It means you exchange photographs with your adopted team.

It means you hold a cleat drive in your community at least once a year to collected used soccer gear for your team. It means you get a t shirt with the name and logo of your team to take home. It means you stay in the home of your team members when you come to Honduras. It means you bring at least one gift for a member of your team when you come. It means you email your team members. It means you learn something about the culture of the Lenca Indians of Intibuca. It means you learn how to interact with someone of another culture.

It means you hold a fund raiser, a car wash to raise money for your team to provide water for your team during its games. It means raising money for snacks during the game. It means raising money to buy them a goal net, practice pinnies and cones.

Below are two boys team who need to be adopted so they can get the resources they need to play. Each child needs $5 per player to get the carnet from FENAFUTH so they can play as well as uniform, cleats, shin guards, socks and at least one good ball.

Presently there are thousands of children in the 400 communities in the State of Intibuca that want to play soccer.  The per capita income in Honduras is around $600 per year. There is no way the average person in Honduras can afford to buy soccer uniforms, boots, shin guards, socks. There is presently no way to provide water for games. There are no soccer moms bringing treats after each game.

The Adopt a soccer team program can be developed at two levels:

A. Level One - SHARING PROGRAM

Teams adopt the team in Intibuca by sharing last year equipment and supplies

B. Level Two - SPONSORSHIP PROGRAM

Team adopt the team in Intibuca by providing Soccer for Life the money to buy:

In this program, the uniforms will be printed with your teams name on the back saying

Donated by ______Soccer Club. To participate in this program, your club or group may need to hold a fundraiser.

In both programs, you will receive a certificate of appreciation signed by each of the members of the teams that receives your uniforms.

Adopt a player

Some of the families of the players are involved with the Liga de Las Comunidades Intibucanas come to practice and to games. But many of the boys enrolled in the program have no parent involvement. The Liga de Las Comunidades Intibucanas does not have the resources to provide shin guards, cleats, uniforms and other need. You can outfit a young players in the Liga by a donation of US$100. We will purchase used soccer cleats so the cost stays low. The player will prepare and send a letter of appreciation as well as a photo of your player wearing the gear you have sponsored.
