Yes, Coach! Expands Through Powerful Partnerships

Coach speaks to team of youth soccer players in white t-shirts in front of goal.

In case you missed it, we launched YesCoach.com with Stand Together Foundation to achieve our goal of equipping 100,000 coach-mentors with the training and tools to support more than 3 million youth nationwide.

In addition to the new platform, we are joined by an extraordinary coalition of organizations, joining forces to supercharge the movement.

  • Miami, New York New Jersey, and Philadelphia FIFA World Cup 2026™ Host Committees—are ensuring the tournament leaves a positive and lasting impact in local communities by connecting families and coaches to Yes, Coach!
  • Comcast NBCUniversal & Telemundo—are expanding access through bilingual resources, including a Spanish-language platform and a national PSA airing ahead of the World Cup.
  • MENTOR—brings deep experience in youth mentorship and a national network to strengthen the mentoring movement and train even more coach-mentors.
  • MetLife Foundation—is advancing economic mobility by supporting Yes, Coach! in New York, New Jersey, and communities where MetLife has a presence.
  • Imagine Entertainment—is inspiring audiences through the upcoming documentary Summer of 94, showing the power of coaching and building a path to carry that same legacy forward through Yes, Coach!

We’re coming together to build on the excitement of the FIFA World Cup 2026™ and other major events to support the everyday heroes already stepping up in communities across the country.

As Jeremaine Myrie, CEO of Mentor put it, “Every young person deserves a mentor, and coaches are often perfectly positioned to fill that role.”

Together, we’re building a lasting legacy, where every child has the chance to be seen, supported, and inspired. Want to join this movement? Head to YesCoach.com.
