Established in October 2013, the Soccajoeys Foundation oversees and supports the operation of the Soccajoeys Next Step and Connect programs. The Foundation, formalises the provision of tailored Soccajoeys soccer programs to children with additional needs, disadvantaged and indigenous children aged three to eight years.
The Soccajoeys Foundation seeks to ensure that all children aged three to eight years are given the opportunity to enjoy the benefits of the Soccajoeys soccer program. There is overwhelming scientific evidence on the positive effects that participation in sport has during a child’s early development. The Foundation strongly believes that every child should have access to the programs on offer.
