Beyond the Field: FCC Joins the Quaker Player Escort Program for FIFA World Cup 26™

Local Dreams Align with the Heart of the FIFA World Cup 2026™

FCC joins the Quaker Player Escort Program for the FIFA World Cup 2026™, an initiative that directly connects local communities to the heart of the tournament. This partnership provides 1,400 youth across 11 host cities in the United States with a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to walk out onto the pitch alongside professional players. Our participants will share in this immense excitement during the highly anticipated Colombia versus Portugal match on June 24 and will also experience the intensity of the Round of 32 fixture at the Miami stadium on July 3, cementing unforgettable moments that celebrate the talent and dreams of young leaders on a global stage.

Cultivating Health, Belonging, and Community Leadership Through Play

The impact of this initiative extends far beyond the field of play through 40,000 hours of educational programming that provides essential information on nutrition, hydration, and well-being to vulnerable communities. This effort aims to foster active family participation and equip the next generation with healthy habits. At FCC, we utilize soccer as a powerful tool for community engagement and social impact, celebrating the ability of sports to unite families and promote a profound sense of local pride while building meaningful experiences that create true opportunities for youth to shine.
