Values & Community are at our core
Now more than ever we see an opportunity to celebrate the diverse communities that make up Albuquerque and New Mexico. We are excited to announce a sports league like no other, using the beautiful game to champion people, and learn more about each other on and off the court.
In a world of pay to play athletics, where many communities are left out, we have developed a model that gives kids the opportunity to play competitive futsal in a positive environment that promotes giving back to the community. We have partnered with local community organizations to have our athletes provide an hour of service each week giving back to the community and learning from each other, while developing relationships that may have never been cultivated before.
We have eliminated the financial component and have developed a positive sense of community that has never been done before.
Creating Change
Our unique futsal league combines one hour of community service from each player every week, free meals, and a great environment to play. This is the impact we have had to date.
More than any sport, futsal can bring the world together
The youth and coaches in our league represent 10+ countries and ethnic communities from around the world, who now call New Mexico home. These countries include:
Burma, Thailand, Somalia, Ethiopia, Nigeria, Kenya, Mexico, Colombia, Brazil, and the United States
Albuquerque & Metro Schools
Locally, the athletes and coaches are from many geographical locations across Albuquerque. They attend elementary, middle, and high schools in the metro area. These include:
Building stronger communities through sport and service
Promoting healthy lifestyles through physical activity, nutrition education, and mental wellness programs designed to support the holistic development of young people.
Beyond futsal, we offer basketball, volleyball, and other sports that teach teamwork, leadership, and sportsmanship while keeping kids active and engaged.
Bridging the gap between youth and community leaders, including law enforcement, educators, and local organizations to build trust and understanding.
Empowering youth through workshops, mentorship programs, and college readiness training that prepare them for success on and off the field.
We're back and better than ever for our 2025 season! 🎉 For the 4th straight year, we're bringing the energy to local schools across Albuquerque. Join us for league play throughout the summer months!
This is an invitation-only event, celebrating some of the best talent and community spirit around.
Developing Leaders for Generations to Come
Our unique approach has put kids and the community first. We recognize that to make a positive impact we need to provide positive experiences for our youth, while giving back to the communities they are from. Our service model eliminates the financial barrier in youth sports while emphasizing the importance of developing a strong positive community for all.

Placing an Emphasis on Physical & Mental Health
Studies have shown the negative affects of kids not getting enough physical activity in their lives. The rate of childhood obesity in marginalized communities is on the rise. Our goal is to help bring those numbers down by providing healthy environments where kids can be physically active and enjoy the beautiful game.
Reducing teen/youth violence involves fostering self-confidence, mentorship, inclusion, education, and career readiness. To achieve this, we can encourage activities that challenge young people, provide positive role models and mentors, create inclusive environments, offer access and resources to support quality education, and build career readiness skills. By combining these elements, we can help young people build a positive sense of self and a brighter future.
