New York City

We worked with MLS club NYCFC to tell the inside story of the New York City Soccer Initiative, building 50 soccer pitches across NYC - all through the eyes and voices of young people aged 8-23 from those communities. 

Each storyteller shared their own personal experiences of NYC street soccer culture and the impact the pitches were having in their communities.
