Developing a Soccer Program to Facilitate Institutional Equity and Diversity

CLARA Project

Session Description

Soccer is the most popular game in the world, 165,000 North Texas Soccer Association players live in the TVCC service area, and many of these players are Hispanic. 301 Texas high school men’s soccer teams and 207 women’s teams exist; however, only15 community college men’s soccer teams and 17 women’s soccer teams appear within the Texas regions of the National Junior College Athletic Association. This makes soccer in Texas a prime sport for community colleges to offer to future students. Learn how development of a soccer program can strengthen Hispanic community contacts and offer prospective students the opportunity to attend college and receive a quality education with financial support.
