Greenville, SC - Greenville Triumph has announced AFL, an international manufacturer headquartered in Spartanburg, as an official presenting partner ahead of the club's 2021 season. The partnership will include a co-branded initiative known as the “Pass It On Program,” aimed to provide mentoring and camp scholarships to underserved and disadvantaged youth players in the Upstate community.

"Partnering with the Greenville Triumph allows us to continue our investment in the Upstate, bringing together the community through sports, and engaging youth with an opportunity for them to learn and grow in a positive environment,” said Jody Gallagher, President & CEO of AFL. “It aligns with who we are and our commitment to positively impact our communities through service to others.”

Greenville Triumph and AFL have teamed up for the “Pass It On Program” as both organizations seek to mentor the local youth community through the game of soccer, with the goal of the program providing the opportunity for anyone to experience the sport of soccer regardless of background or economic standing. The 60-minute program sessions, set to begin this May, will provide individuals with the opportunity to learn about nutrition, physical activity and life skills in a safe, stress-free environment. Additionally, AFL will provide $1,000 in scholarships to be used to support eligible players wishing to attend Triumph camps and clinics.
