Congrats to Soccer in the Streets for putting on an incredible Charity Event yesterday.  It couldn’t have been a nicer day to hold an outdoor event and to play some soccer and raise money for a great cause and a great organization.  The event was held at Piedmont Park with the Atlanta skyline as a backdrop.

The fundraiser culminated with a game featuring players wearing ball gowns and tuxedos.  Phil Hill, the Chairman of Soccer in the Streets, was sporting a dress and wig!  Shortly after this picture was taken he received a controversial second yellow card, which the crowd enjoyed!

Soccer in the Streets is a great organization with great people!  Here’s how to get involved or to make a donation:
