Kellyn Acosta’s First Mini-Pitch

Kellyn Acosta joins some kids for a scrimmage on the new mini-pitch.

A star on and off the pitch.

An impressive midfielder for LAFC and the USMNT on the pitch. A leader in ensuring the game is accessible to all off the pitch. That’s who Kellyn Acosta is.

We were thrilled to open our first of many mini-pitches with Kellyn in Artesia, California just days before he heads off to compete in the MLS Cup in Columbus.

We celebrated in style with Kellyn and Timothy Tillman, another LAFC midfielder. Community members enjoyed scrimmages on the pitches, getting autographs, and eating food all while enjoying the new mini-pitch.
