20-for-20 Mini-Pitch Initiative

To celebrate MLS’ 20th season, we helped create 20 new mini-pitches in each MLS club’s city.

Initiative Impact

Through this partnership, more MLS supporters have a safe place to play with their friends and families.

Count me in!

Through this partnership, SNHU also provided scholarships to community champions. Learn more about a different kind of mini-pitch success story.

“We are most proud of the solid roots that we are leaving in communities where our teams play, where our players live, and where our events take place.”
Don Garber
MLS commissioner
“Creating mini-pitches like these right next to schools makes the sport accessible and hopefully is going to help kids stay healthy and learn skills—teamwork and all the good things—and hopefully will develop some future soccer stars as well.”
Jon Patricof
former president, NYCFC
"SNHU awarded full college scholarships to deserving members of the community. These are people who have been really dedicated and who haven’t had a chance or an opportunity to go on to college at a time when it’s more important than ever."
Paul LeBlanc
president, SNHU
