SAN JOSE, Calif. – This past July, Chevron U.S.A. Inc., Open Goal Project and the San Jose Earthquakes co-hosted the Chevron Soccer Academy on the campus of Cal State Monterey Bay. The three-day event was designed to bring high-level soccer training and STEM (science, technology, engineering and math) learning to local youth in Monterey County.
At a time where family income can often affect a child’s ability to play the sport they love, the Chevron Soccer Academy was created with acceptance and inclusion in mind. Approximately 400 boys and girls aged 9-18 attended the academy, which ran from July 12-14.
