Community

WE BELIEVE that engaging with the global game improves academic outcomes, inspires healthy, active lifestyles and helps youth develop overall vital life and leadership skills. WE ARE COMMITED to growing youth soccer and inspiring future generations of our Crew community through creating accessibility and engagement opportunities for all.

Student success starts with attendance and engaged learning. Students who are absent from school miss important learning opportunities, which can be difficult, or even impossible, to make up. The mission of the Stay in the Game! Network managed by Battelle in collaboration with the Cleveland Browns Foundation, Proving Ground, Ohio Department of Education and the Columbus Crew Foundation is to prioritize attendance by connecting its users to resources aimed at tackling chronic absenteeism.
