Sponsor & Partner

Build the next chapter of play.

Sponsor a site activation through The More Play Network and put soccer, coaches, and community in front of more Hampton Roads kids.

A small Hampton Roads nonprofit with a real, growing reach.

For the Players Foundation brings soccer to schools, parks, and community sites across Hampton Roads — not just the goals and the lines, but the coaches, programming, and community that make a space matter. In two years, we've activated two sites, reached approximately 2,500 students, and delivered more than $30,000 in support — all funded by our community.

Sponsoring us isn't logo-on-a-website philanthropy. It's a real partnership with a small nonprofit where your name shows up at the activation, in the press release, on the field where kids are playing, and in the community gathering around them.

Every sponsorship is tax-deductible. We're a registered 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization.

A Note from the Founder

Don't see what you're looking for? Let's talk.

Every sponsorship at this Foundation starts with a conversation. If you have a specific site in mind, a unique partnership idea, or a budget outside our standard tiers, I'd love to find the right fit together.

We're a small, founder-led 501(c)(3) — which means you don't have to go through committees, layers, or marketing departments to make this real. You talk to me, we figure it out, kids end up with a team, a coach, and a place to play.

Christin Golich, Ed.D. Founder & Executive Director, For the Players™ Foundation
