Financial Assistance
Helping keep families engaged and active in our community!

Phoenix FC Inclusion Fund
Phoenix FC is excited to continue our partnership with First Call Heating, Air Conditioning and Plumbing!
We want to make sure no child is left off the field, so we’ve partnered with First Call Heating to create the Phoenix FC Inclusion Fund.
First Call believes all kids have the right to play and enjoy the lifelong benefits that team sport provides.
The Phoenix FC Inclusion Fund will provide financial assistance to cover registration costs for those families who need it.
Together, we’ll make sure the sport of soccer can be enjoyed by all!
