While the FIFA World Cup 2026™ might still feel like a distant goal, the energy is already hitting the pitch right here in Los Angeles!
To keep the momentum building, the Los Angeles World Cup 2026 Host Committee has just announced an awesome “Grow the Game Of Soccer” Clinic and Celebration, and you might be able to be part of it.
The Los Angeles World Cup 2026 Host Committee, in collaboration with the Play Equity Fund, is hosting the Grow the Game of Soccer Clinic and Celebration Event on Saturday, May 9 at Galaxy Park in Carson. The free festival-style event brings together youth players, grassroots coaches and referees for an afternoon of on-field programming, community and soccer celebration.
Grow the Game of Soccer Clinic and Celebration Event
Running from 3pm to 7pm, the event is designed for three groups:
- Youth Players (Ages 6–12): Fun drills to build skills and confidence.
- Grassroots Coaches: On-field sessions focused on modern, positive coaching.
- Referees: Guided learning to help officials master the game.
The event is backed by major partners including the LA Galaxy, Cal South, and the Center for Healing and Justice through Sport (CHJS) — making it one of the most significant community soccer events LA has seen ahead of the World Cup.
