Soccer Team Fundraising Ideas

Soccer is the world’s most popular sport. There are soccer teams in every city, in every state and province, in just about every country you could name. Soccer teams often have fundraising events to purchase new equipment, uniforms, or to make improvements to the playing field. Some soccer teams do a fundraiser for local charities or to help someone in need.

One of the biggest decisions is often deciding what type of fundraiser to do. In Quincy, MA, Mass General and New England Revolution have teamed up to help AliveAndKickn as a fundraiser for colon cancer and genetic cancer research by playing twenty-four hours of soccer. At a different stadium, this one in New Britain, CT, the New York Cosmos made their debut in a doubleheader and fundraiser called Soccer Revolution for cancer research. Fundraisers by other Soccer teams include student-alumni games, golf tournaments, clinics, dinners, car washes, restaurant nights, raffles, thons, and product sales.

Tickets are sold throughout the week prior to a game. Before a volleyball, basketball, or football game announce the winner. The winner gets to sit on the sofa with two of his or her friends. Read more…
