In addition to winning on the field, the California Storm puts on free soccer clinics for girls from at risk communities and kids with disabilities in the northern California region.  Each year, we serve over 1000 kids.  At these clinics, the Storm players and staff create a fun environment teaching the kids soccer skills but more importantly building confidence, social skills, leadership skills, tools for healthy eating and exercise, and goal setting.  Each child is provided with a soccer ball, soccer bag, water bottle, snacks and tips for healthy eating.

We are building opportunities for girls and women to gain valuable on the job experience, give them resources, female mentors and training to have a career in the sports industry.  It is extremely hard for women to develop a career in sports because it is an extremely male dominated industry.  With our Women In Sports Careers Program we are changing the game for women.  These are paid opportunities for girls and women to be trained and gain valuable experience working within a Championship organization.
