For more than thirty years, Soccer in the Streets (SITS) has used the beautiful game as a vehicle to impact the lives of children and help develop the communities that support them. Far more than facilitating a recreational pastime, Soccer in the Streets offers a unique combination of soccer and life-skills programming to youth in communities, schools and at MARTA StationSoccer locations – creating a lasting relationship of trust and a feeling of community. Given the numerous challenges that children in low-income communities face, SITS presents an effective, readily scalable way to connect, empower and develop young people through the lessons and experiences that soccer organically provides.
