Some say big goals are hard to achieve.

In this game, big goals are hard to miss.

About

It’s not about changing the game. It’s about understanding and improving the experience.  Our solutions activate the power of football in a local area. So what do we do?

For starters, we make the game available to more people. When more people can play, problems begin to solve themselves. When the game is available in ways people need it, almost anything can be solved. We understand the problems and the reasons people play. We understand how people use the game and how a field can be used to target specific problems a community. We understand how the game changes locations and lives. 

Unite The Game Foundation shares highly effective solutions with operating organizations and governing bodies. This includes help with developing play-spaces. Our Planning Process ensures community parks and play-spaces suit all interests, a way to align everyone involved.

 

Anomaly…

How can a universal solution come from a single place?

An unlikely solution follows from unlikely circumstances. The destruction of a major city creates an unlikely window of opportunity to start again, edit old ways with consideration of the problems of today.

Adaptive…

Always moving, accouting for everyone.

Considering public-interest, solutions tend to be handed down from a few in charge. That high-level point of view often misses perspectives on the ground. An idea for a solution is not always a great fit for everyone. A true solution must be designed by everyone involved.

Unite The Game has developed its solutions from the ground, up. The Foundation is positioned to help from the mid-point, where private and public interests connect. Our Planning Process accounts for all major interests involved. 

Advocacy…

If you know, you know.

Players, families, coaches, clubs…have their own problems. Effectie program-design must think on all scales—where the game can have an impact. Stakeholders in local programs are individuals, but also organizations and cities.

To see is to believe, but to benefit is to know the difference. For those who don’t know, we have the Research to show.

Analysis

Results you can count…on.

The power of the game is measurable. It’s easy to feel, but to prove it is something else altogether.

Unite The Game Research demonstrates how and why outcomes occur. Throug key relationships and rigor, interesting and valuable studies have been carried out. We can apply these results in other places, making results transferable.

Our Research is for this purpose. 

DESIGN BY UNDERSTANDING, OVER TIME

 

Unite The Game Foundation offers its solutions for others to use. Our Programs, Resources, & Research are effective for in sport and society. Programs significantly improve many common problems; Resources include operating assistance and facility development; Research covers how and why these outcomes occur.  

In 2005, Unite The Game was an online platform providing resources to people in US soccer. Our focus shifted to developing a model of local programs, much needed in New Olreans after Hurricane Katrina. The city was a blank-slate, a chance to start over. How can the game help people? The result is a customizable model of programs which has been shaped over time by all major interests in sport.

Unite The Game aims to maximize the potential of the game—not just for players, coaches and clubs—but understanding how the game can be used to reach any goal.
