Connecticut Junior Soccer Association (CJSA) has launched a new initiative to bring afterschool soccer programs to more communities across the state. Aimed at expanding access to the game while providing kids with a safe and healthy activity once the school day ends, the programming is being made possible through a partnership with Kwik Goal as its official equipment provider.

“We are proud to bring new afterschool soccer programs to communities across Connecticut, creating more opportunities for kids to play, learn and build friendships through the game,” said Andy Parker, CJSA Grassroots Coaching Coordinator. “Thanks to Kwik Goal, our official equipment supplier, every program will have the resources needed to support a fun and positive experience.”

Focused on breaking down barriers to participation, this afterschool initiative offers players free equipment, professional coaching and mentorship from CJSA staff and local college athletes. In addition to serving as role models for participants, coaches and mentors are instilling values of teamwork, discipline and confidence that carry into the classroom and beyond. Nearly 200 young players in Hartford, New Haven and Norwich have already taken part in the programming, with plans underway to expand even further statewide.

For CJSA, the collaboration with Kwik Goal reflects a shared vision of growing the game and strengthening communities through sport. Together, the organizations are ensuring that more kids across Connecticut have the opportunity to play, learn and thrive.

“Our partnership with CJSA reflects a shared commitment to growing the game and reaching more communities,” said Tim Tobin of Kwik Goal. “Supplying the equipment for the CJSA Kickin’ It After School Programs ensures that every child has the chance to participate, learn and enjoy soccer in a safe, supportive environment. We’re proud to contribute to the development of the next generation of players.”

Founded in 1981, Kwik Goal has established itself as an industry leading supplier of soccer goals, field equipment and training equipment. An official provider to U.S. Soccer, U.S. Soccer Foundation, ECNL and United Soccer Coaches, Kwik Goal offers a versatile line of products that can be used at every level of play.
