What is the Community Impact Committee?
The Community Impact initiative builds on the success of the TopSoccer, Coach Mentor program and recent club participation in other community events and aims to get players involved in volunteering to build a culture of players, coaches and teams giving back to our Needham community. This will continue to strengthen our relationship with organizations in the town while building team camaraderie and a sense of personal accomplishment.
How can coaches, teams and players get involved?
Listed below are some of the Needham organizations that Needham Soccer Club teams have worked with in the past. You may also contact anyone on the committee for ideas to get started. Or, create your own idea that sparks your interest!
Please share images from your event and tag Needham Soccer Club so we can celebrate your accomplishment on our website and social media channels.
We encourage players and teams to get involved and hope to make these events an integral part of our teams’ soccer season every year. We will begin presenting a new annual NSC Community Service award at our Coach Appreciation Night to recognize a coach, team or player who demonstrates the values identified in our Mission by participating in volunteer opportunities this season.
