Diversity, Equity & Inclusion

Sport has the power to change the world. It has the power to inspire. It has the power to unite people in a way that little else does. It speaks to youth in a language they understand. Sport can create hope where once there was only despair. It is more powerful than the government in breaking down racial barriers.

LaMorinda Soccer Club – Diversity Statement

LaMorinda Soccer Club’s commitment to Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DE&I) is at the core of our mission and who we are. It fuels our work as we continue to create opportunities for underrepresented populations and fight systemic inequalities through soccer.

This is a shared commitment with our players, parents, and partners across all the programs we offer, and within the communities we work with, as we continue to do our part to build a better future for our children and our community.

We value the diversity of our team and are committed to creating and sustaining a culture of respect and inclusivity in which they can learn, grow, and thrive.

Our club celebrates and welcomes every individual, regardless of race/ethnicity, sexual orientation, religion/belief and gender identification. We are committed to recruitment and hiring practices that in no way limit the diversity of our coaches and staff. We aspire to reflect the communities we work with at every level of our organization and will identify, attract, and retain diverse, qualified team members. We believe that the more diverse we are, the stronger we get.

We are committed to creating and fostering a culture of equity and inclusion based on mutual respect and trust. We aspire to foster a team community that respects each individual as their authentic self, seeks and values diverse perspectives, and ensures each team member is motivated and empowered to actively contribute to the team’s success.
