During our summer tour of the United States, City players visited the Orlando SoFive centre and helped City in the Community (CITC) run a free football session for local young players.

And while at the centre the players took part in some of the session before fielding questions from the young fans in a Q&A.

SoFive Soccer Centers, partly owned and operated by Manchester City’s parent company, City Football Group, are expanding in the US to 22 locations after their acquisition of XL Soccer World.

SoFive is a great place to play football and is making football more affordable and accessible for as many players as possible.

Manchester City and SoFive Youth Programs bring the training principles and philosophy of the Club to children in the United States.

Throughout City’s pre-season tour, SoFive provided centres for CITC to run free events across the country.

Charles Lagayette, SoFive CEO and Co-Founder said: “Our mission is to make soccer more affordable and more accessible to every youth and adult player as possible in the US.”

Jorgina Busquets, CFG Managing Director Football Education, Recreation and Partner Clubs added: “SoFive allows us to fulfil our mission of empowering better lives through football.

“We are making sure adults and kids have a chance to play football and do the thing they love.”
