Diversity, Equity and Inclusion

     Alliance Soccer Club is dedicated to providing a fun, safe, and inclusive environment for all participants. No matter your age, race, ethnic origin, gender identity or expression, disability, family or marital status, or background, you belong here. We are constantly learning and educating ourselves to ensure that everyone feels welcome, accepted, and respected. In sports, embracing diversity is crucial as it promotes a sense of togetherness among individuals from different backgrounds. It doesn't matter how you present yourself or where you come from when you play the game. We all share a common passion for the sport, and there is no division among us. Each individual is an essential part of the team. 

• Welcoming All – We aim to make everyone feel valued and welcome, regardless of whether they are employees, volunteers, participants, their families, or members of the community. We will strive to avoid exclusion at all costs. 

• Creating a Sense of Belonging – Creating a sense of belonging within a group, team, club, or community for all members is essential. 

• Inclusion – Alliance Soccer Club welcomes all individuals by providing equal access to opportunities and resources. 

• Diversity – It is important to have a diverse representation of staff, volunteers, and participants in terms of sex, gender identity, race, ethnicity, sexual orientation, class, economic means, age, ability, education, and religion. 

• Equity – Removing barriers to soccer participation to open the opportunity to all individual participants. 

• Community – We are an inclusive family, united in our goals. #WeAreAlliance

• Accessibility – Creating modified programming to include people with all abilities and disabilities. 

• Communicate Effectively – This includes using inclusive language when communicating with colleagues, volunteers, players, and their families both verbally and in writing. 

     Alliance Soccer Club will evaluate their progress in diversity, equity, and inclusion regularly, with comprehensive annual reviews. All employees will receive training, and any discriminatory behavior will not be tolerated.
