In partnership with USL2 franchise Flatirons Rush and MyRevolution, a Cause-based nonprofit fundraising platform, Freedom2Play is excited to announce the launch of the PATHWAYS Initiative.  Promoting Athletes and Transforming How We Approach Youth Sports.  PATHWAYS will improve the ways that sponsors can make a difference in the advancement of elite youth athletes.  

Kicking things off, Flatirons Rush Academy will return to the USL Academy Cup to defend its 2022 championship!  The USL Academy Cup is held in Tampa, Florida, from March 29 to April 2, 2023.  MyRevolution will help to bring this cause to its network of donors.  

Flatirons Rush also intends to promote its new USL college education partnership, where USL players can earn college course credits, advance its brand through NFTs and Name-Image-Likeness marketing, and bring value to its sponsors and backers.  

Ultimately, PATHWAYS will change the pay-to-play model to relieve families of the financial burden of supporting their elite athlete children.       

In general, youth sports across the vast lot of developed nations (particularly Europe) do not burden families financially for kids to play sports.  Businesses support their communities and often underwrite youth sports.  They see both the corporate civics and the marketing advantages that surround the widespread enthusiasm of sporting activities.  Freedom2Play is excited to use business connections to HELP KIDS PLAY SPORTS !!!
