Passback Program and Play It Forward Campaign

Kings Hammer U17 Red player Josh Bisbee is teaming up with the US Soccer Foundation and Kings Hammer to collect gently used soccer gear as well as monetary donations to help support those less fortunate. Josh has placed donation bins around Town & Country (inside by the large and small indoor fields) and will be collecting items through the month of March.

He has also created a fundraising page as part of the US Soccer Foundation PLAY IT FORWARD program. Here, you can donate money through their secure site, and they will distribute funds to soccer organizations who do not have the money needed to fund their own programs. Click here to visit the fundraising page and to donate.
