At Soccer in the Streets, we believe that when you give kids a ball and a place to belong, there's no limit to what they can achieve.
Through free in-school and after-school programs across metro Atlanta, we create safe spaces where youth can connect with friends, find their confidence, and build the skills needed to succeed far beyond the field. Since 1989, we’ve been walking alongside young people as they grow into confident, capable adults who are ready to lead. When our youth thrive, all of Atlanta rises with them. Here’s How We Got Started
Soccer in the Streets is dedicated to using soccer as a tool for personal growth, education and opportunity for the local youth of Atlanta. We provide safe spaces, mentorship, and joy by combining sport, education, and community to help kids thrive both on and off the field. At our core, we believe soccer can do more. It can connect communities, empower the next generation and create lasting change.

Years Serving Atlanta
At our core, we know that soccer is so much more than just a sport.
Across Atlanta—and across the world—soccer brings people together. It requires teamwork, dexterity, patience, and confidence. It not only instills a healthy lifestyle, but it also brings us joy, no matter our age, background, or circumstance. Soccer empowers us to see what we’re capable of, and pass that confidence on to others. At Soccer in the Streets, we go beyond providing excellent youth programming; we also give adults a way to Play It Forward through Allside adult soccer leagues. More About Allside
Providing easy access to soccer is one of our core tenets.
Soccer in Schools is how we meet kids where they are. By partnering with schools across Atlanta, we bring intentional, high-quality soccer programming directly to students who might otherwise never get introduced to the game. Every session is designed with purpose: to spark a lifelong love of the game, build Social and Emotional skills, and create the kind of trust and community that kids carry with them long after they leave the field.
