With Copa America Centenario, The Olympic Games, Euro 2016 and more on tap during the Summer of Soccer, we put together a handy Soccer in the Streets Viewing Guide to give you a heads up on where to join the party while making a difference in the lives of Atlanta’s youth.

If you’d rather get on the field, you can find us at Woodruff Park EVERY Tuesday night for free pickup games. Player registration is also open for our first-ever ATL Nations Cup, a five-a-side charity tournament that takes place July 2 at Grady Stadium.
