Past Foundation Events

	Showdown In Chinatown, New York City In partnership with Steve Nash Foundation and NYC Parks & Recreation, Claudio Reyna Foundation hosts a yearly charity soccer game in the lower east side in Manhattan between an incredible rooster of NBA and soccer stars. Past guests include: Steve Nash, Tony Parker, Grant Hill, Chris Bosh joined soccer greats Thierry Henry, Javier Zanetti, Ivan Cordoba, Mathieu Flamini, Salomon Kalou, Adrian Mutu and Claudio Reyna. Prior to Pro Game the foundation provides a Soccer Clinic and Youth Academies match.

	Gala Awards In partnership with New York Soccer Club, the Foundation presents awards to distinguished soccer players for their humanitarian accomplishments. On June 25th, 2009 the Foundation presented the award to Inter Milan Captain and former Argentina National Team Captain Javier Zanetti. Javier and Paula Zanetti have decided to set their Foundation up with the aim of involving all sectors of society, and to lend their support to a very deprived area of Argentina. The Zanettis have, via their Foundation, created a mechanism through which the most socially disadvantaged and diversely talented children can receive, from their infancy, the help and education that they need at every stage of their lives. 2009 Award Honoree Javier Zanetti

	CRF Holiday Party 2010 NY Yankees legend Mariano Rivera joined the Claudio Reyna Foundation Annual Holiday party on December 14, 2010 to help promote this great cause. The evening was hosted at Gerber Group's Whiskey Park and was a great success. CRF Coaches had a chance to share their success stories with our donors, supporters, special guests and Board of Directors. We look forward to continuing this annual tradition in 2011.

	CELEBRITY SOCCER TOURNAMENT In Partnership with Robert De Niro and the well known Tribeca Film Festival in New York City, the Foundation is helping organize NYFEST - a film industry soccer tournament including a celebrity match designed to raise funds to expand our programs. Our NYC academy students will attend a friendly game and a soccer clinic before the celebs kick off. Come down to Pier 40 on April 23rd, 2011 for a chance to see it all. For more information please visit www.nyfest.org.

	ACADEMY INDOOR GAMES Academies indoor games are scheduled to take place in NYC where players will have a chance to visit different academies and meet kids from other locations. They will take part in soccer specific drills and fun indoor games.

	ACADEMY OUTDOOR GAMES & SOCCER FESTIVAL The Soccer Fun Festival events are scheduled to take place in NYC and Newark, NJ in 2011. They include players from all of our programs and we encourage parent participation. These events are designed to give the children a healthy competitive environment, and to test the skills they've learned throughout the year. Players will have a chance to meet kids from other locations and take part in fun, soccer specific drills and games. We also have a short Parents versus Parents game that most often becomes the highlight of the experiences.

	OPEN SOCCER SUNDAY CRF provides open soccer every Sunday from 1:30-3:00PM, thanks to St. Benedict's Preparatory School in Newark. Each week, weather permitting, children from the various Newark locations can get together to knock the ball around and meet kids from other schools and neighborhoods. This also provides a chance for the kids of Newark to play on a real soccer field with regulation-sized goals, a stark contrast from the corner of the cafeteria or the parking lot that most are used to. This opportunity has helped decrease our retention concerns, which were prevalent mainly because there's only so much you can do 2-3 days per week in the same small space. The joy on their faces when they get on the field is priceless, and their energy levels skyrocket. Open Soccer Sundays obviously benefit the fitness level of the kids, but it also proves therapeutic for children dealing with stressful issues.
