About the program

The Rotary Club of Uptown Cubao (RCUC) Football Grassroots Training program is a developmental initiative aimed at nurturing and developing young soccer players at the grassroots level – especially targeting kids from our adopted barangays and schools, as well as children of our fellow Rotarians. We are initially targeting age groups of 12-14 years, both boys and girls.

Our primary goal is to introduce these kids to the sport of football (also known as soccer) and provide them with the fundamental skills, knowledge, and experiences needed to progress in the sport.
