Building character through soccer training with a positive and productive age appropriate coaching philosophy.
Recognizing the need for social and sports development in Charlotte, Creative Player Sports Foundation, was founded not only to promote soccer but to bring together children from different socio-economic backgrounds and diverse cultural heritage and be able to provide an alternative to nourish this vision of enhancing the lives of at risk youth in the Charlotte community through structured athletics and educational activities. Our aim is to provide social inclusion, eliminate social barriers and increase participation and use soccer as a means to an end. Whereas the traditional sports development approach might be regarded as a product led and sports centered, our project will be more “needs based”, using sports to address broader aspects of social inclusion as a means to promote aspects of personal, social and community development. CPSF aims to use soccer as a means of empowering children individuals through providing access to specific physical skills, but the growth and development that comes from the involvement in a team, a sense of belonging and a gained self-esteem, sportsmanship, and participation. Participation in team sports have many learning opportunities besides the skillsets obtained from sports training itself, but also learn to be team players, learn to compete and become disciplined and healthy, productive, well-rounded leaders and citizens. We believe that the many benefits of soccer should be available to all children throughout Charlotte regardless of their ability to pay or not. These objectives will be achieved by supporting children and utilizing after school soccer programs as a tool to encourage, foster and nurture youth living in Charlotte's underserved urban inner city by allowing them to have access to high quality sports training provided by Creative Player Inc.’s acclaimed and proven system.

Last week we had our yearly holiday celebration with our after school kids and staff and some of our volunteers. Our amazing Tilly cooked a delicious meal for everyone, Miss Sydney poured her love and care into gifts for everyone, and we were even treated to a piano concert by one of our volunteers! Coach Daniel kept the party going with his DJ skills and a wonderful time was had by all. What a beautiful gift the kids gave Coach Daniel - a massive memory board for his office! Special thanks to all of our sponsors, donors, and volunteers for a blessed 2025!

Thank you so much to .garage and friends for making this possible! The kids absolutely loved the cars, and we are so grateful for your generosity in giving them such special gifts. Getting to sit in the cars and have a hands-on experience was incredibly cool and something they’ll never forget. This was truly an awesome memory for the kids, and thank you all for helping make their Christmas so special! 🎄✨🎁
