Mississippi Mills United is committed to making soccer accessible to children throughout the communities we serve, including children who may face financial, social, cultural or other barriers to participation in organized sport. As part of our Community Access Initiative, MMU works with local schools and community organizations to introduce children to soccer in an accessible and welcoming environment. MMU provides free soccer clinics and introductory activities where possible, allowing children to experience organized soccer without requiring club membership or registration. In 2026, MMU coaches delivered free full-day soccer clinics at eight local elementary schools in our service area. These clinics introduced children to age-appropriate soccer activities, fundamental movement skills, individual ball skills and small-sided games. MMU will continue working with schools and community partners to identify opportunities to reach children who may otherwise have limited access to organized soccer, including newcomers to Canada and families experiencing financial barriers.
MMU also provides financial assistance to families for whom registration costs present a barrier to participation. Please refer to MMU Player Financial Assistance Policy.
