The JRZY Foundation exists so that where a kid lives and what a family can spend never decides who gets to play. We work both grounds: free supervised pickup in South Florida and North Carolina, and the Academy campus in Waxhaw, NC, built for every sport on the plan. We fund the access, scholarship every seat we can, and build the facilities the ecosystem runs on. The game finds the talent. We keep the door open.
Hosted runs in public parks, free to every kid, supervised by vetted hosts, organized by Roll Call. No fees, no tryouts, no uniforms required. This is where the love of the game starts, so it's where the Foundation starts.
Academy training with an education-first culture. Scholarship athletes are students first: attendance and grades stay in frame alongside development, because the next level, whatever it is, asks for both.
The facility fund builds and maintains the grounds: fields first, then the full campus build with a half-Olympic pool, racquet sports, boxing, basketball, and baseball. Land secured. Fields running.
The Foundation runs free, supervised football (soccer) pickup in both regions, in conjunction with JRZY FC. In South Florida we're soliciting the cities of Miami and Fort Lauderdale for park space; in North Carolina pickup grows around the campus. The cities bring the parks. JRZY FC brings vetted hosts, coaching presence, and the Roll Call system that tells every family in the pool where the game is and when. The Foundation covers the cost so the answer to "how much" is always nothing.
The Foundation is opening the first JRZY Academy campus just outside Charlotte in Waxhaw, North Carolina, minutes from Ballantyne and the Union County corridor. Both footballs, football (soccer) and flag, plus athletic training from age 5 carry the Fall 2026 launch, with the football (soccer) work built on international principles, the Brazilian, French, English, and Spanish schools of play. The full campus build brings every sport on the plan: swimming in a half-Olympic pool, boxing, basketball, racquet sports, and baseball. Education stays in frame throughout.
The structure is deliberate: the mission side and the business side each do what they're built for, and neither has to pretend to be the other.
Free pickup access in South Florida and North Carolina, Academy scholarships, and the facility fund. Philanthropic dollars, city partnerships, and grants land here, and every dollar stays on mission.
The brand, the media, and club-owner licenses. The league's economics help sustain what the Foundation builds, so access doesn't depend on fundraising alone.
If you hold parks, gyms, fields, or a community that needs the game, we bring the hosts, the system, and the funding model. One conversation is enough to start.
