For the third time in Club history, ESPN announced New York City FC (NYCFC) as a finalist for the annual Sports Humanitarian Team of the Year Award, presented by ESPN and sponsored by Bristol-Myers Squibb.
The nomination is a testament to the Club’s vision and purpose to empower better lives through soccer and to serve as the football Club of New York City at every level, in every community.
City in the Community (CITC), the charity supported by NYCFC and City Football Group, was launched in 2014 to use soccer to tackle social issues around health, education and crime prevention and has been committed to this important work since.
