TOPSoccer is an official U.S. Youth Soccer program enriching the lives of young athletes with disabilities through the game of soccer.

"Participating in the TOPSoccer event is always fun and equally rewarding," said junior goalkeeper Laura Boyer. "You can really see the kids enjoying the day. It's a great opportunity to give back to the game and the community. "
