“We are proud to partner with the San Jose Earthquakes and the Quakes Foundation to open this futsal court to the Greenfield community as well as donate to the recreation center,” said Chanel Jolly, Chevron Corporate Affairs Director. “We hope that in addition to providing a new, safe space to play soccer, children in this community will have the opportunity to build on other skills, such as teamwork, communication, leadership and respect.”

Since 2019, Chevron has been providing accessible soccer opportunities with the San Jose Earthquakes in Monterey County to empower local youth through the Chevron Soccer Academy. Last July, more than 400 boys and girls ages 9-17 participated in a two-day session in Salinas with a star-studded coaching staff leading a free football clinic, followed by an open tryout featuring scouts from the college and professional levels.

This time, it's the Greenfield community's turn to celebrate their new futsal court and provide a safe space for residents to play the beautiful game.

After cutting the ribbon to open the field, Salinas and Ochoa conducted free soccer training for boys and girls ages 8 to 10. The children went through drills, honed their skills and concluded the day playing on the new field while each receiving a brand new soccer ball.

“We extend our deepest gratitude to Chevron and San Jose Earthquakes for their generous investment in our community,” said Galilea Silva, Assistant Recreation Coordinator for the City of Greenfield. “Thanks to their partnership, many families and children came together to celebrate the opening of the new futsal court, marking a new chapter of opportunities for our youth.”
