We are overjoyed by the installation of this mini-pitch at Colonel Charles Young Playground in Harlem. The BWPC aims to share Black experiences with the general public while also making the sport of soccer increasingly accessible to BIPOC communities. This pitch, its location, and it's coming together in time for Juneteenth marks an unprecedented celebration of blackness in the soccer community we are proud to be a part of. Thank you to the tireless work of the U.S. Soccer Foundation, (ussoccerfoundation) NYCFC, (nycfc) the Mayor’s Fund (nycmayorsfund) to Advance New York City, Etihad Airways, (etihad) and adidas to recognize the vision we and BPC (bpcmls) had for this pitch and bringing it to life for all to enjoy. imdorsey - Executive Board Black Women’s Player Collective
