Executive Summary
       The enclosed strategic plan for Inti Soccer Academy of Manchester, Ltd., provides the mission,
principal objectives, organizational structure, phases of development, projected budget, and the short
and long-term financial sustainability plan of the Academy.

        A certified non-profit corporation in the State of New Hampshire, Inti Soccer Academy is
organized exclusively for charitable and educational purposes. As New Hampshire’s representative of
the nationwide Urban Soccer Collaborative, its primary mission is to serve the underprivileged youth of
the City of Manchester by establishing an intensive and rigorous soccer academy, with supporting
educational services, within the most economically distressed region of the inner-city. In addition, by
providing attractive recreational and club-level soccer opportunities, as well as elite academy training
with exceptional trainers, the Academy also intends to draw participants from the surrounding suburbs,
thereby assisting in the breakdown of the different economic, racial, and ethnic divisions separating the
urban and suburban communities.

        There exists a dearth of quality athletic programming in the inner-city of Manchester. This is
unfortunate since, as indicated in the Neighborhood Revitalization Strategy Area (NRSA) Report for
the City of Manchester in 2005, the need for such organizations in the inner-city is at its greatest. The
city’s vast expansion of its immigrant population, including refugees relocated to Manchester by the
national refugee relocation program, have only increased the number of children living in poverty (the
highest in the state). These children are afflicted with disproportionately high rates of linguistic,
educational, health, and other socio-economic difficulties, putting them at high risk for drug and
alcohol abuse, criminal behavior, prostitution, and other forms of delinquency. While quality athletic
programs are only one part of the answer to this problem, the lack of such programs in the inner-city is
nonetheless deplorable. Several of the few remaining athletic organizations in the inner-city (e.g., a
seasonal recreational soccer program, and a youth lacrosse program) have recently relocated their
events and activities across the river to the west side, a location that is virtually inaccessible to the
inner-city children. At the moment of Inti Soccer Academy’s founding, there are no longer any
organized soccer programs in the inner-city beyond the recreational level; yet, ironically, because of the
large concentrations of immigrant children in that region, the passion and talent for soccer is stronger
than for any other sport. At any given moment of the day during non-school hours, one will find
immigrant children playing unstructured soccer in the public parks of the inner-city, children who
would stand to benefit greatly from quality soccer training and programming. However, all such quality
training in the region occurs outside of the city (Seacoast, Bedford, Tritown, Hooksett, etc.), and is
unaffordable to, and unreachable by, these immigrant, refugee, and city youth who desperately desire to
develop their soccer skills.

        The specific needs of Manchester’s immigrant and refugee population notwithstanding, all of
Manchester’s children would benefit from the existence of a high-quality soccer program close to
home. One notable reason for this can be found in two additional recent studies, one by the City of
Manchester Department of Health, and the other by the Foundation for Healthy Communities, in which
it was discovered that Manchester’s youth (not unlike their peers across the nation) suffer from a
worrisome obesity problem, caused primarily by poor diet and lack of exercise. In response, Inti
Soccer Academy intends to do its small part in making it possible for Manchester’s children to simply
“go out and play” in a healthy, safe environment. Whether these children walk, bike, bus, or are
otherwise transported to the Academy’s facility, Inti Academy intends to make its daily free “pick-up”
soccer games, “street soccer” tournaments, practices, and training clinics affordable, accessible, and fun
for the thousands of Manchester youth who reside near its fields.

        The Academy is structured so as to provide soccer activities and training as its core program.
At its maturity, the soccer program will serve male and female, skilled and unskilled, young and old,
wealthy and poor. In doing so, it will become an integral part of the inner-city community and the
greater Manchester metropolitan region. The highest level of soccer training will be comparable to the
very best national and international academy programs, and will prepare qualified youths for collegiate
scholarship opportunities and pre-professional play. This elite training will, however, be supplemented
by age-appropriate club-level teams competing in the region, an apprentice program for young
children, and an extensive recreational program for youths and adults (including evening adult
leagues). As indicated, the recreational program will also feature weekly pick-up soccer games,
monthly 3v3 “street soccer futsal tournaments,” and periodic camps and clinics. All will be welcome to
participate at some level in Inti’s soccer activities. Partners for this soccer programming include the
U.S. Soccer Federation, Urban Soccer Collaborative, and U.S. Youth Soccer, and potential partners
include the New Hampshire Soccer Association, the Olympic Development Program, local Club
programs, and professional MLS teams. Because many of these organizations are desperate to extend
their support and influence into the inner cities, they are more than happy to provide funding,
equipment, and coaches to assist Inti Academy in its work in the urban community of Manchester.

         As is detailed by the enclosed mission and organizational plan, the core soccer program will be
supported by a wide variety of educational support services. These support services, including English
Language classes, tutoring sessions, homework periods, leadership workshops, and cultural activities,
will be conducted in collaboration with local elementary, secondary, and higher education institutions
such as Beech Street Elementary School, Hillside Junior High, Manchester Central High School, and
Saint Anselm College. Partnership with these institutions will provide Inti Soccer Academy with
physical resources (classroom space, textbooks, notebooks, writing utensils), curricula, and personnel
(e.g., teachers, tutors, volunteers from Saint Anselm’s Meelia Center) to conduct and coordinate these
educational services. The goal of these support services will be to provide all participating children
with the intellectual development, character development, and life-skills that will enable them to
achieve some measure of educational and career success, and ultimately a good life (regardless of their
soccer skills). In short, Inti Soccer Academy will become a “second home” for these children and their
families. As a well-organized institution of the highest mission and integrity, Inti will be a community
resource as well as a formidable, nationally recognized, soccer training facility.

        In regards to its facilities, the long-term goals of Inti Soccer Academy include the building of
suitable indoor and outdoor facilities on a strategically located parcel of land in the inner-city, at which
it could provide the variety of levels of soccer and educational programming described in this plan.
The planning of this facility (including its location) is at present being vigorously pursued in
partnership with the city. Officers and Directors of the Academy are in discussion with the Manchester
Parks, Recreation, and Cemetery Department, as well as city Aldermen, to designate an appropriate
venue. Funding for the planning and construction of this facility will be obtained through grants from
various foundations and fundraising efforts.

        In the short-term, Inti Soccer Academy will begin by offering accessible soccer activities on a
city park or field for the inner-city youth in 2009, especially during the summer months—when
organized soccer activity is virtually non-existent in the city. These soccer activities would include
supervised “pick-up” soccer games, small-sided soccer tournaments, soccer clinics run by professional
trainers, and a summer soccer camp free of charge for economically disadvantaged families. Fall and
winter training sessions in 2009 will be held on a city field, and in indoor facilities outside the city
(transportation for inner-city children will be provided). Inti Academy players will also participate in
local and out-of-state soccer tournaments during the fall, winter and spring of 2009-10, and in weekend
scrimmages on Inti’s home field. Finally, the Academy will organize its own tournaments to be hosted
on city fields, provided such fields are made available. Funding for these short-term goals will be
obtained through various fund-raising efforts, including grants as well as donations from both
individuals and local businesses.

        In order to sustain these short-term and long-term goals, as described by the enclosed
sustainability plan and budget, Inti Soccer Academy will pursue a three-phase development. In the
first phase (1-2 years), it will rely heavily upon charitable donations for 57% of its funding, and the
remaining revenue will be obtained from fee-related income (43%). A significant portion of these
charitable donations will be drawn from the Academy’s “Sponsor a Child” program, which will allow
individual donors to be matched with a needy child, and thereby fund the child’s participation in the
Academy’s soccer and academic programs for the period of one year. In the second phase (2-3 years),
as it expands its operations and becomes more established, the Academy will begin to draw income
from grants (33%) provided by foundations (both private and public) sympathetic to the Academy’s
mission. These include foundations aimed at, variously, assisting immigrant and refugee families,
reducing childhood obesity rates, and prevention of teenage crime and drug use, to name just a few. In
this second phase, the Academy will maintain the strength of its child-sponsorship program (21%), but
will increase its reliance on its night-time leagues, tournaments, and related fees for the remaining
revenue (46%). In the third phase (3+ years), Inti Soccer Academy will generate 50% of its income
from sustainable revenue such as league registration fees, membership, and workshop and clinic fees,
and rely on donations (18%) and grants (32%) for the remainder. In future years, Inti intends to
continue this trend of increasing the proportion of its income generated from sustainable revenue, and
decreasing its reliance upon grants and donations. However, the latter may always be necessary in
order for the Academy to continue to fulfill its mission of serving the economically disadvantaged
population of the inner-city.

        While this plan is subject to modification and revision as circumstances change, and as new
insight is gleaned from the initial work of the Academy, the Board of Directors is confident that the
enclosed plan will serve as an excellent working template for the birth and growth of Inti Soccer
Academy of Manchester, Ltd.
Inti Soccer Academy of Manchester:
                                                Mission
Mission Statement:

        Inti Soccer Academy seeks to serve the disadvantaged youth of Manchester, NH by establishing
an intensive and rigorous soccer academy, with supporting educational services, within the most
distressed region of the inner-city.

Why “Inti”?

         The name “inti” reflects the Bolivian heritage of several of the Academy’s founders, one of
whom founded the famed inner-city Tahuichi Academy in Santa Cruz. The Tahuichi Academy achieved
world-wide renown for giving the underprivileged youth of Bolivia the opportunity to be successful in
life through soccer and life-skill training. The name Inti is the Incan word for the sun or, more
specifically, for the Incan deity that is the source of light, life, understanding, vitality and growth. Inti
Soccer Academy intends to brighten the lives of the children of the inner-city families that are suffering
hardship. The name reflects the fact that Inti Soccer is not just “another” soccer program, but is a
program designed to bring light to the darkest, most forgotten corners of the inner-city, and to enable
the growth of the mind, body and spirit of Manchester’s most disadvantaged youth.

Why “Soccer”?

         While many sports might benefit the inner-city youth, soccer has been chosen not only because
it is a passion of all of the Academy’s founding members, but it is the sport best suited to the racial and
ethnic make-up of the city and can serve as an appropriate vehicle for the growth and development of
both troubled and well-adjusted youth. As noted below, Manchester has experienced a wave of
immigrants from Latin America, Eastern Europe, and Africa, as well as from a great many other parts
of the world, and most of these ethic peoples have a native passion for soccer. Whether originally from
Liberia or Bosnia, Vietnam or Mexico, these inner-city Manchester families can understand and enjoy
the game of soccer together. Soccer is, one might say, the lingua franca of the entire world.

Why an “Academy”?

        As an Academy, Inti treats soccer not simply as a recreational sport, or a source of community
strength, but as an art. Like piano, ballet, pottery, sculpting, archery, and any other art, soccer requires
intense commitment, discipline, concentration, and practice under the tutelage of a master. In this way,
Inti Soccer Academy intends to use the soccer field as a crucible in order to transform children into
successful adults. The fire of determination, hard-work, and self-sacrifice that is required to master the
game of soccer, in combination with a sense of teamwork and fair play, can strengthen the energy,
mental focus, and character of children in such a way as to enable them to be successful in whatever
endeavor they choose. Inti Soccer Academy will require its academy-level players to practice five days
a week under professional soccer trainers (with one hour per day in the classroom for academic work),
achieve satisfactory marks in school, practice good hygiene and diet, and demonstrate good behavior.
Club-level, and apprentice participants will train at a slightly less vigorous schedule, but one that is
appropriate for their age and skill-level. Coaches, trainers, and educators involved in the program will
look after the whole person of all Inti players, as is consistent with the Academy’s mission.


Why the City of Manchester, NH?

As indicated below, Inti Soccer Academy intends to establish its facility and permanent base of
operation within the most economically disadvantaged region of the City of Manchester.
The plight of Manchester’s inner-city children is demonstrated by the Neighborhood Revitalization
  Strategy Area (NRSA) Report prepared for the City of Manchester in 2005. In accordance with
  Housing and Urban Development guidelines, in 2005 Manchester (population circa 109,000)
  designated a significant portion of its inner-city as a Neighborhood Revitalization Strategy Area, i.e., an
  area experiencing unusually high poverty rates, crime rates, housing problems, and serious health
  needs. This disadvantaged community was once designated in 1995 as a federal Enterprise
  Community; however, despite some successes that have come from that designation, the area has
  grown geographically and demographically due to what the report describes as “a new wave of urban
  poor immigrating into the community.” As indicated in the chart below, the number of Manchester’s
  residents under 18 years of age living below 100% of the poverty level has increased from 12.6 % in
  1990 to 15% in 2000, and to an estimated 24.9 % in 2007. This huge increase is due in part to the
  nationwide economic downturn, local economic conditions (e.g., the closing or departure of major
  employers such as Tyson Foods), and in part to an influx of low-income families (especially families
  from neighboring Massachusetts who have relocated to Manchester to take advantage of the
  comparatively cheap housing costs).

  Because Manchester is a designated refugee relocation center, this new wave of immigrants includes
  political refugees and emigrants from foreign countries (4,500 in the period of 1995-2005)--many of
  them from underdeveloped nations such as Liberia, Somalia, and Sudan. Indeed, according to the U.S.
  Census, the foreign-born population in the City of Manchester had grown to 9.4% in year 2000, and
  that percentage has almost certainly increased over the last nine years. In addition to typical economic
  and social challenges faced by urban poor, these immigrants and refugees suffer from acute cultural
  assimilation difficulties.
In the school year 2007-08, there were 16,309 school-age children in the City of Manchester, of
which a full 36% were documented as economically disadvantaged (5,920 were enrolled in
free/reduced cost school lunch programs).1 The Beech Street Elementary School, the district in which
Inti Soccer Academy intends to base its operations, has roughly 90% of its children enrolled in
free/reduced cost school lunch programs.2 A significant number of these and other disadvantaged
children in Manchester are recent immigrants. One indicator of this is that the English as a Second
Language Program (ESL) has a present enrollment of roughly 1500 children (roughly 9%).3 Another is
that Manchester Central High School teaches students from over 60 different countries, who speak over
30 different languages. Whether it is because of this high number of immigrants for whom cultural
assimilation is a serious challenge, or because of Manchester’s disproportionately high number of
economically disadvantaged children, Manchester has a significantly higher drop out percentage than
that of the State (Manchester’s 4-year cumulative is 17.9 %, whereas New Hampshire’s is 9.7%).4 In
the inner-city, this problem is magnified, as is indicated by the following table of annual rates of
percentage drop-out, post-high-school employment, and college acceptance:

                                                       Inner-city              Manchester                 State
          % Dropouts (07/08 SY)                          5.20%                   4.90%                    2.50%
           Post HS Employment                             17%                     19%                    17.50%
    College Acceptance Rate (06/07 SY)                    46%                     52%                    53.10%
     Source: US Census Estimation for 2007-08

In addition to these economic and educational problems, these low-income children often live in sub-
standard housing, receive inadequate nutrition, and are subject to higher rates of juvenile delinquency.

        Finally, it should be noted that all of Manchester’s children stand in need of an additional high-
quality athletic program that is accessible and affordable. A 2005 report by the City of Manchester
Department of Health found that an astonishing 39% of Manchester’s first graders were overweight,
and a full 19% were obese (this was only slightly more startling than a subsequent study by the
Foundation for Healthy Communities, which reported that 32.8% of New Hampshire’s children ages 6-
12 were afflicted with the same problem).5 Of course, when compared to the national averages, these
Manchester statistics are not so surprising, since in 2005-06, as noted by a study published in the
Journal of the American Medical Association, 30.1% of children (aged 2-19) nationwide had a body
mass index (BMI) above 85% (i.e., were overweight or obese).6 All the experts agree that inactivity
and poor eating habits are the main culprits here. In short, like many of our children nationwide,
Manchester’s children are in dire need of our help in providing healthier exercise and dietary habits.
Among other things, they need healthy, supervised spaces to play near their homes, and they need
attractive physical activities in those spaces that are available to them not once a week (for an hour at a
time), but every day after school, and on weekends as well.

         The current state of soccer in the City of Manchester is woeful. Due to their expensive fees,

many competitive youth soccer clubs and academies in the Southern New Hampshire region remain
unaffordable to the poor. Indeed, perhaps for that reason, with the exception of three older youth travel
teams located across the river on the west side, all of the competitive soccer programs in the greater
Manchester area are located outside the city (Seacoast, Bedford, Hooksett, Tritown, etc.), rendering
them even more unreachable to the city’s poor. As for recreational soccer, the majority of the programs
that do exist in the city are seasonal ones that, as it happens, are located at the geographical outskirts
and therefore outside the aforementioned distressed region. Moreover, because recreational programs
provide access to soccer for just one or two days a week for a couple months of the year, and rely upon
volunteers and parents for coaching, they are by themselves largely ineffective in developing
fundamental soccer skills or a passion for the game of soccer. In sum, Manchester’s underprivileged
children, many of them immigrants or ethnicities that love the game of soccer, have virtually no access
to any organized soccer, much less a program that will help them develop talent, confidence, and the
ability to be successful in life. This is the mission of Inti Soccer Academy of Manchester, Ltd.
Inti Soccer Academy of Manchester, Ltd.:
                                Principal Objectives
Dedicated to children—both male and female—Inti Soccer Academy will employ professional
trainers and educators to provide multiple levels of soccer training and educational services
throughout the year. From recreational soccer and club-level competitive soccer to advanced
academy-level training, supplemented by academic and character development programs,
the Academy will benefit city youth in numerous ways. These benefits are the principle goals
of this non-profit organization:

      I.     Teaching soccer skills from basic to advanced levels

                   Similar to international academies such as the Tahuichi Academy in
                   Bolivia, as well as several national programs, Inti Soccer Academy’s
                   highest level training treats soccer as an art requiring master coaches
                   and trainers, and the utmost dedication of its players from an early age.
                   Mastery of soccer’s fundamental skills, techniques, tactics, and strategy,
                   as well as good agility and excellent physical conditioning, will be
                   required. The club-level and apprentice programs will require somewhat
                   less commitment from the players, but will nonetheless be guided by
                   professional trainers, and require weekly practices and clinics for
                   competence in skills and techniques.

      II.    Establishing habits of self-discipline, concentration, and hard-work

                   All levels of soccer and academic training provided by Inti will require
                   players to learn to focus their time, energy and attention on development
                   of their bodies and minds in order to achieve success on the field and in
                   the classroom. As with any discipline, good character is a prerequisite for
                   success. As a result, all of Inti Soccer Academy’s employees and
                   personnel will model good behavior and, with regard to the players
                   themselves, provide care and attention for the whole person, i.e., the
                   development of his or her body, mind and spirit.


      III.   Building confidence and self-esteem in disadvantaged youth

                   Soccer is a sport that demands team-work and skill. As children gain
                   talent and experience playing soccer with one another, no matter how
                   distressed their background, they will gain confidence, self-esteem, and a
                   sense of trustworthiness. This will positively affect their work in school,
                   their home life, and their pursuit of jobs and careers.

      IV.    Providing healthy athletic and fitness activity to counteract childhood
             obesity
Because of the variety of types of soccer activity offered by Inti after
           school, during the evenings, on weekends, over holidays, and during the
           summer, the inner-city children of Manchester who participate in the
           Academy’s programs will be involved in healthy physical exercise on a
           daily basis, and year-round. This consistency is essential for the
           Academy’s success in teaching soccer, but also for developing healthy
           life-long exercise habits in today’s youth.

V.   Assisting immigrant and refugee children, and their families, with their
     integration into the Manchester community.

           By providing many levels of soccer and educational training activities that
           will attract inner- and outer-city children, Inti will provide Manchester with
           a healthy resource to divert its otherwise troubled youths from destructive
           patterns of behavior, improve the community’s quality of life, and
           introduce Manchester’s urban youths to their suburban peers. By
           welcoming mothers and fathers to its adult recreational soccer as well, Inti
           will strengthen families, and will help integrate the different races,

Inti Soccer Academy of Manchester, Ltd.:
                                     Program Outline
Soccer Program
Inti will provide a variety of levels of soccer activity and training to the children of Manchester,
from recreational level to elite “academy” level training.

1. Academy-level Training:

   Phase 1: Estimated total # of participants in Academy-level Training= 55 children

   •   Apprentice program (U-7 boys and girls)
   •   Apprentice program (U-9 boys and girls)
   •   Academy program (U-10 boys)
   •   Academy program (U-10 girls)
   •   Academy program (U-12 boys)
   •   Academy program (U-12 girls)

Since this is Inti Soccer Academy’s first year, and its Directors wish to exercise caution that
the Academy does not overextend itself, the focus will be on children ages 12 and under in
the Academy’s elite program. Allowing for a slightly less demanding schedule for the young
children in the Apprentice program, the Academy program will require training five days a
week, and will include skill clinics, technical training, tactical training, and controlled
scrimmages, among other things. This cohort of children will continue to be trained in 2010
and beyond, so that eventually, the Academy program will expand to include older children:

   Phases 2 and 3: Estimated total # of participants in Academy-level Training= 180 children

   •   Apprentice program (U-7 boys and girls)
   •   Apprentice program (U-9 boys and girls)
   •   Academy program (U-10 boys)
   •   Academy program (U-10 girls)
   •   Academy program (U-12 boys)
   •   Academy program (U-12 girls)
   •   Academy program (U14 boys)
   •   Academy program (U14 girls)
   •   Academy program (U16 boys)
   •   Academy program (U16 girls)
   •   Academy program (U18 boys)
   •   Academy program (U18 girls)

2. Club- level Training and Competition:

   Phase 1: Estimated total # of participants in Club-level Training and Competition (including
   Academy-level players)=72 children
•   Club-level travel teams (U 10 boys and girls)
   •   Club-level travel teams (U 11 boys and girls)
   •   Club-level travel teams (U 12 boys and girls)

In this first year, again in order to focus its resources, Inti Academy will only field competitive
co-ed club level teams at the U 10, U 11, and U 12 age groups. It remains possible that
higher age group teams will be fielded even at this early stage, should the demand arise.
These teams will include both players training at the Academy-level, and players who aspire
to do so, but have yet to reach the level of dedication required for that training. In general, the
club-level travel teams that are to be formed in this first phase of the Academy remain to be
determined, depending on the overall number of children enrolled in the Academy this year,
and the concentrations of children at the various age-brackets. At its full maturity, Inti Soccer
Academy will train and field multiple club-level teams at all age groups from U-10 to U-17:

   Phase 2: Estimated total # of participants in Club-level Training and Competition (including
   Academy-level players)= 384 children


   •   Club-level travel teams (U 10 boys)
   •   Club-level travel teams (U 10 girls)
   •   Club-level travel teams (U 11 boys)
   •   Club-level travel teams (U 11 girls)
   •   Club-level travel teams (U 12 boys)
   •   Club-level travel teams (U 12 girls)
   •   Club-level travel teams (U 13 boys)
   •   Club-level travel teams (U 13 girls)
   •   Club-level travel teams (U 14 boys)
   •   Club-level travel teams (U 14 girls)
   •   Club-level travel teams (U 16 boys)
   •   Club-level travel teams (U 16 girls)
   •   Club-level travel teams (U 17 boys)
   •   Club-level travel teams (U 17 girls)


3. Recreational Soccer Program:

   Phase 1: Estimated total # of participants in Recreational Soccer=150 children

   •   Summer camp (6 weeks)
   •   “Street soccer” (3v3) tournaments (once per month)
   •   Supervised “pick-up” games (once per week)

In Phase 1, the recreational program will focus on providing young children in the inner-city
with the opportunity to play soccer for pure enjoyment, with some limited training mixed in.
The summer soccer camps will provide inner-city youths with a healthy way to spend their
day; the street soccer tournaments (played with a futsal ball) will be a monthly source of
passion and anticipation; and the supervised “pick-up” games will present just a wholesome
activity for after-school hours.

Eventually, the recreational program will expand to include pick-up soccer four days a week,
adult evening leagues, and skill clinics open to any and all recreational players who are
interested in improving their game.

   Phases 2 and 3: Estimated total # of participants in Recreational Soccer=600

   •   Summer (6 weeks) and spring (1 week) camps,
   •   “Street soccer” (3v3) tournaments (once per month)
   •   Supervised “pick-up” games (four times per week)
   •   Adult night leagues (4 times per week).

4. Coaching Education and Training:

       Phase 1: Estimated total # of participants in Coaching Education=45 coaches

   •   Summer Coaching Workshop (14 hours)

In addition to soccer training and activity, Inti will provide soccer coaching courses consisting
of an on-going series of training sessions and exercises designed to inform and educate
coaches on coaching styles and methodologies. Inti Soccer Academy’s experienced and
internationally renowned staff will also conduct extensive conferences, workshops, and
soccer symposiums for coaches, soccer players and referees.

       Phases 2 and 3: Estimated total # of participants in Coaching Education= 400 coaches

   •   Summer Coaching Workshop (14 hours)
   •   Fall Coaching Workshop (14 hours)
   •   Winter Coaching Workshop (14 hours)
   •   Spring Coaching Workshop (14 hours)
   •   Monthly Coaching Clinics on Specialized Topics (3 hours each)
   •   Annual National Coaching Conference
   •   Annual Urban Soccer Collaborative Symposium

5. Pre-season Training for Local Club Teams, High-Schools, and Colleges

       Phases 2 and 3: Estimated total # of participants in Pre-season Training= 120 players

Lastly, Inti provides professional pre-season training opportunities for colleges, high-schools
and club teams that might be interested.

Phase 1: Total # of Participants=267
Phase 2: Total # of Participants=800
Phase 3: Total # of Participants=1500
Education Program

Inti Soccer Academy will partner with local educational institutions--elementary and secondary
institutions, high-schools, and colleges and universities, as well as volunteer groups--to assist
Academy children in their academic work and intellectual development.

1. Week-day Homework Sessions:

       Phase 1: Estimated total # of participants in Homework Sessions = 60 children

    These week-day one hour homework sessions, staffed by qualified volunteers from local
educational institutions, and staff from Inti Soccer Academy, will be required for all children
participating in Academy-level training, and optional for all other children at Inti Soccer
Academy. Eventually, as the numbers of children in the program increase, the sessions will
be staggered in the afternoon and early evening to reduce the need for additional space and
staffing.

       Phases 2 and 3: Estimated total # of participants in Homework Sessions = 250 children

2. Specialized Tutoring Services:

       Phases 2 and 3: Estimated total # of participants in Tutoring Program= 50 children

       In addition to monitored homework sessions, Inti Soccer Academy will provide special
tutoring services for those students suffering more serious deficiencies in their academic
work. These tutors will be drawn from qualified local volunteers, and staff of Inti Soccer
Academy.

3. English as a Second Language (ESL) Courses

       Phases 2 and 3: Estimated total # of participants in ESL Program= 25 children

       These ESL classes will be provided for foreign-born Academy participants in desperate
need of improving their English language skills. Provided in collaboration with the ESL
program in the Manchester Public Schools, these ESL courses will be taught by qualified
volunteers and Inti staff.

4. Academic Summer Program.

       Phases 2 and 3: Estimated total # of participants in Summer Program= 25 children

These week-long special summer academic workshops, on such topics as writing, story-
telling, and literature, will be offered by Inti Soccer Academy to all participants in the Academy.
The purpose of these workshops will be to enhance the intellectual and academic abilities of
participating children.
5. Humanities Program at Inti Soccer Academy:

       Phases 2 and 3: Estimated total # of participants in Humanities Program= 25 children

         This innovative program will provide cultural opportunities for children in the Academy.
It will consist of special discussions of important figures in world history, age-appropriate
readings and discussions about important ideas, persons, and events; bus-trips to local
museums; musical appreciation; and viewing important age-appropriate videos and films.
This program will be run in collaboration with potential partners such as the NH Humanities
Council, and Saint Anselm College’s Humanities Program (Portraits of Human Greatness).

                                                      Financial Sustainability Overview

          The table below depicts Inti Soccer Academy’s financial plan overview. The three phases indicated below are identified by the
          relative distribution of funding sources, with the goal of long-term sustainability guiding the plan. Initially, Inti will rely heavily
          upon donations for 57% of its income, and sustainable revenue for the remaining 43%. In the second (mid-term) phase, grants
          will become a significant source of income, representing 33% of income, while reliance upon donations will diminish to 21% of
          income (and sustainable revenue will increase to 46% of income). Once Inti is able to generate 50% of its funding from
          programmatic revenue (leagues, membership, workshop and clinic fees ) it will have reached its third -phase funding goal. In
          future years, the goal is to continue increasing the percentage of income generated from programmatic fees by 3-5% per year,
          and to reduce the Academy’s reliance upon grants and donations. The table below depicts the funding goals in broad outline.

“Sponsor a Child” Program: Building Futures, One Life at a Time

As indicated above, many of the inner-city children that Inti Academy serves are
economically disadvantaged, and often come from distressed living
environments. With but a little support from the community, these children will be
able to avail themselves of the Academy’s wholesome environment of soccer
training, academic support, and character development. For this reason, Inti
offers people who want to make a difference--one life at a time--the opportunity to
sponsor an individual child at a cost of $1000 per year. These funds will enable
the child in question to participate in Inti’s soccer training on a daily basis
throughout the year, including recreational, club-level, and (if qualified) academy-
level training, as well as weekend tournaments and special clinics. It will also
allow the child to participate in Inti’s Summer Soccer Camps throughout the
entire summer, when the child might otherwise be left on his or her own. Finally,
it will also support the child’s participation in the academic programs of the
Academy, including homework sessions, specialized tutoring assistance, English
as a Second Language classes, the Summer Academic workshop, and the
Academy’s Humanities Program. The value of these services, independently,
costs $1800. The breakdown is provided below:

Spring Training (including supporting academic services):     $300
Summer Camps:                                                 $750 (5 weeks @
$150/week)
Summer Academic Workshop:                                     $150
Fall Training (including supporting academic services):       $300
Winter Training                                               $300

Upon agreeing to sponsor an individual child, the sponsor will be provided with a
biography of the child whom he or she is supporting, and periodic updates of the
child’s soccer and academic progress. In turn, the child will receive some basic
information (at the sponsor’s discretion) about his or her sponsor. It is the
Academy’s hope that this program will attract the support not only of local
Manchester residents, but potential sponsors outside of the Manchester area,
including professional soccer players who might understand the value of Inti
Academy’s program.

In addition to these individual sponsors, local, regional, and national businesses,

Inti Soccer Academy of Manchester, Ltd.:
                     Measurements of Success
The success of Inti Soccer Academy will be measured in several ways that vary
according to the specific objectives of the Academy laid out above.

      I.     Teaching soccer skills from basic to advanced levels

            Measurements:

             1. How many children are enrolled in the Academy’s soccer
                programs in Phases I, II, and III?

                   Quality programs attract participants. Therefore, one
                   measure of our success is that the recreational, apprentice,
                   club-level, and elite academy training programs become
                   increasingly popular in the Academy’s first three years. For
                   example, the Academy expects roughly a 200% overall
                   increase in its number of Academy-level participants from
                   Phase 1 to Phase 3, a 300% increase in its recreational
                   program participants, and a 400% increase in its Club-level
                   participants in that same period:

                                          Phase 1          Phase 2            Phase 3
                                        (years 1-2)      (years 2-3)         (years 3+)
                      Academy-level
                         Training           55               110                  180
                       Participants
                       Recreational
                         Program            150              375                  600
                       Participants
                        Club-level
                          Team              72               225                  384
                       Participants
                      % Increase of
                        number of                           150%                  320%
                       participants


             2. Who are Inti Soccer Academy’s partners?

                   An old axiom states that one can measure a person by his or
                   her friends. In this case, one can measure the quality of a
                   soccer program by the quality of its soccer partners. In the
                   course of its first three years of operation, Inti intends to
                   deepen and strengthen its already-existing partnerships and
collaborations with the U.S. Soccer Federation, the Urban
              Soccer Collaborative, and U.S. Youth Soccer, and establish
              new partnerships with the New Hampshire Soccer
              Association, the Olympic Development Program, and
              possible professional franchises such as the New England
              Revolution. All of the aforementioned are soccer programs
              of the highest quality, and their association with Inti Soccer
              will be an indicator of its strength as a soccer academy.

        3. Have any Academy players obtained college scholarships?

              While Inti Soccer Academy hesitates to raise the
              expectations of any individual Academy players with regard
              to their prospects for College scholarships, the Academy will
              measure the success of its elite training regimen (in part) by
              the ability of its graduates to secure full or partial athletic
              scholarships to colleges and universities.

 II.    Establishing habits of self-discipline, concentration, and hard-
        work
 III.   Building confidence and self-esteem in disadvantaged youth

        Measurements:

        1. How well is Inti Soccer helping its participants to achieve
           success in their educational and career pursuits?

              Both the soccer and educational programs of the Academy
              are aimed at transforming the whole person—mind, body and
              spirit. Several benchmark of Inti’s success in this regard lie
              in reducing the number of high-school drop-outs among its
              participants, and increasing both the numbers of those who
              secure employment after school, as well as those who are
              accepted to colleges and universities. These important goals
              require a longer time frame for both achievement and
              assessment:

                             Service                                           4 year     8 year    12 year

                              Area                                           Projection projection projection

  Rate (06/07 SY)
              Assumptions: US Census Tracts 12, 14, 15, 17, 18, & 19
              Sources: NH Department of Education; 2000 US Census; NH Bureau of Labor & Statistics
The “Service Area” in the above chart represents the 6
            Hillsborough County Census tracts that constitutes the
            “inner-city” population of Manchester. The projections for
            Years 4, 8, and 12 speak to the years of operation for Inti.
            Four years into Inti's existence it is expected that no more
            than 5% of the Academy's members will drop out of High
            School; by Year Eight that number will be reduced to 3.5%;
            and by Year 12 it will be reduced further still to 2%. Note that
            Year Four's goal of no more than 5% is better than the
            current drop out rate of the Service Area, and the Year 12
            projection is better than that of the State of NH as a whole.

            Post-High School employment is a viable alternative for
            adolescents who may not be suited for college. Inti's goal for
            Year Four is to have 17.5% of its members who are not
            interested in college placed in a steady job (noting that this
            goal is better than the Service Area's current average); by
            Year 8, 18.5% employment; and 20% by Year 12 (this goal
            exceeds that of the State's average).

            The Service Area's current college acceptance rate is 46%.
            Inti's goal is that by Year Four, 50% of the Academy's
            members will be accepted to college; by Year 8, 52% (equal
            to the current Manchester average); and by Year 12 there will
            be a 54% college acceptance rate (greater than the State's
            average).

IV.   Providing healthy athletic and fitness activity to counteract
      childhood obesity

      Measurements:

      1. How well is Inti Soccer helping Manchester children to avoid
         obesity?

            Short of periodically weighing its participants on a scale, it
            will be difficult to measure the success of the Academy in
            obtaining this objective. However, because of the variety of
            types of soccer activity offered by Inti after school, during the
            evenings, on weekends, over holidays, and during the
            summer, the children of Manchester who participate in the
            Academy’s programs will be involved in healthy physical
            exercise on a daily basis, and year-round. It is expected that
            in the fourth year of operation, roughly 1000 Manchester
            children will be regular participants in the Academy’s
            activities, which translates into roughly 6% of Manchester’s
            population of school-age children. In this way, it is to be
            expected that Inti Soccer Academy will help to reduce the
            percentage of overweight and obese children in Manchester
(32.8% aged 6-12 in 2005) in a statistically significant
           manner.

V.   Assisting immigrant and refugee children, and their families,
     with their integration into the Manchester community.

     Measurements:

     1. How many suburban children is the Academy attracting to its
        urban program?

           By providing many levels of soccer and educational training
           activities that will attract inner- and outer-city children and
           adults, Inti Soccer Academy will provide Manchester’s urban
           and suburban children, as well as their parents (in the adult
           recreational programs), opportunities to interact with one
           another. The Academy expects that as the reputation of its
           recreational program, camps, clinics, and training programs
           grow, more and more suburban children and adults will be
           attracted to the Academy. In the first phase of operation, the
           target is for suburban children and adults to constitute 10%
           of the Academy’s participants; in the second phase, 20%;
           and in the third phase, 30% of its participants:


                                   Phase 1           Phase 2            Phase 3
                                 (years 1-2)       (years 2-3)         (years 3+)

  • 3. Executive Summary The enclosed strategic plan for Inti Soccer Academy of Manchester, Ltd., provides the mission, principal objectives, organizational structure, phases of development, projected budget, and the short and long-term financial sustainability plan of the Academy. A certified non-profit corporation in the State of New Hampshire, Inti Soccer Academy is organized exclusively for charitable and educational purposes. As New Hampshire’s representative of the nationwide Urban Soccer Collaborative, its primary mission is to serve the underprivileged youth of the City of Manchester by establishing an intensive and rigorous soccer academy, with supporting educational services, within the most economically distressed region of the inner-city. In addition, by providing attractive recreational and club-level soccer opportunities, as well as elite academy training with exceptional trainers, the Academy also intends to draw participants from the surrounding suburbs, thereby assisting in the breakdown of the different economic, racial, and ethnic divisions separating the urban and suburban communities. There exists a dearth of quality athletic programming in the inner-city of Manchester. This is unfortunate since, as indicated in the Neighborhood Revitalization Strategy Area (NRSA) Report for the City of Manchester in 2005, the need for such organizations in the inner-city is at its greatest. The city’s vast expansion of its immigrant population, including refugees relocated to Manchester by the national refugee relocation program, have only increased the number of children living in poverty (the highest in the state). These children are afflicted with disproportionately high rates of linguistic, educational, health, and other socio-economic difficulties, putting them at high risk for drug and alcohol abuse, criminal behavior, prostitution, and other forms of delinquency. While quality athletic programs are only one part of the answer to this problem, the lack of such programs in the inner-city is nonetheless deplorable. Several of the few remaining athletic organizations in the inner-city (e.g., a seasonal recreational soccer program, and a youth lacrosse program) have recently relocated their events and activities across the river to the west side, a location that is virtually inaccessible to the inner-city children. At the moment of Inti Soccer Academy’s founding, there are no longer any organized soccer programs in the inner-city beyond the recreational level; yet, ironically, because of the large concentrations of immigrant children in that region, the passion and talent for soccer is stronger than for any other sport. At any given moment of the day during non-school hours, one will find immigrant children playing unstructured soccer in the public parks of the inner-city, children who would stand to benefit greatly from quality soccer training and programming. However, all such quality training in the region occurs outside of the city (Seacoast, Bedford, Tritown, Hooksett, etc.), and is unaffordable to, and unreachable by, these immigrant, refugee, and city youth who desperately desire to develop their soccer skills. The specific needs of Manchester’s immigrant and refugee population notwithstanding, all of Manchester’s children would benefit from the existence of a high-quality soccer program close to home. One notable reason for this can be found in two additional recent studies, one by the City of Manchester Department of Health, and the other by the Foundation for Healthy Communities, in which it was discovered that Manchester’s youth (not unlike their peers across the nation) suffer from a worrisome obesity problem, caused primarily by poor diet and lack of exercise. In response, Inti Soccer Academy intends to do its small part in making it possible for Manchester’s children to simply “go out and play” in a healthy, safe environment. Whether these children walk, bike, bus, or are otherwise transported to the Academy’s facility, Inti Academy intends to make its daily free “pick-up”
  • 4. soccer games, “street soccer” tournaments, practices, and training clinics affordable, accessible, and fun for the thousands of Manchester youth who reside near its fields. The Academy is structured so as to provide soccer activities and training as its core program. At its maturity, the soccer program will serve male and female, skilled and unskilled, young and old, wealthy and poor. In doing so, it will become an integral part of the inner-city community and the greater Manchester metropolitan region. The highest level of soccer training will be comparable to the very best national and international academy programs, and will prepare qualified youths for collegiate scholarship opportunities and pre-professional play. This elite training will, however, be supplemented by age-appropriate club-level teams competing in the region, an apprentice program for young children, and an extensive recreational program for youths and adults (including evening adult leagues). As indicated, the recreational program will also feature weekly pick-up soccer games, monthly 3v3 “street soccer futsal tournaments,” and periodic camps and clinics. All will be welcome to participate at some level in Inti’s soccer activities. Partners for this soccer programming include the U.S. Soccer Federation, Urban Soccer Collaborative, and U.S. Youth Soccer, and potential partners include the New Hampshire Soccer Association, the Olympic Development Program, local Club programs, and professional MLS teams. Because many of these organizations are desperate to extend their support and influence into the inner cities, they are more than happy to provide funding, equipment, and coaches to assist Inti Academy in its work in the urban community of Manchester. As is detailed by the enclosed mission and organizational plan, the core soccer program will be supported by a wide variety of educational support services. These support services, including English Language classes, tutoring sessions, homework periods, leadership workshops, and cultural activities, will be conducted in collaboration with local elementary, secondary, and higher education institutions such as Beech Street Elementary School, Hillside Junior High, Manchester Central High School, and Saint Anselm College. Partnership with these institutions will provide Inti Soccer Academy with physical resources (classroom space, textbooks, notebooks, writing utensils), curricula, and personnel (e.g., teachers, tutors, volunteers from Saint Anselm’s Meelia Center) to conduct and coordinate these educational services. The goal of these support services will be to provide all participating children with the intellectual development, character development, and life-skills that will enable them to achieve some measure of educational and career success, and ultimately a good life (regardless of their soccer skills). In short, Inti Soccer Academy will become a “second home” for these children and their families. As a well-organized institution of the highest mission and integrity, Inti will be a community resource as well as a formidable, nationally recognized, soccer training facility. In regards to its facilities, the long-term goals of Inti Soccer Academy include the building of suitable indoor and outdoor facilities on a strategically located parcel of land in the inner-city, at which it could provide the variety of levels of soccer and educational programming described in this plan. The planning of this facility (including its location) is at present being vigorously pursued in partnership with the city. Officers and Directors of the Academy are in discussion with the Manchester Parks, Recreation, and Cemetery Department, as well as city Aldermen, to designate an appropriate venue. Funding for the planning and construction of this facility will be obtained through grants from various foundations and fundraising efforts. In the short-term, Inti Soccer Academy will begin by offering accessible soccer activities on a city park or field for the inner-city youth in 2009, especially during the summer months—when organized soccer activity is virtually non-existent in the city. These soccer activities would include supervised “pick-up” soccer games, small-sided soccer tournaments, soccer clinics run by professional trainers, and a summer soccer camp free of charge for economically disadvantaged families. Fall and
  • 5. winter training sessions in 2009 will be held on a city field, and in indoor facilities outside the city (transportation for inner-city children will be provided). Inti Academy players will also participate in local and out-of-state soccer tournaments during the fall, winter and spring of 2009-10, and in weekend scrimmages on Inti’s home field. Finally, the Academy will organize its own tournaments to be hosted on city fields, provided such fields are made available. Funding for these short-term goals will be obtained through various fund-raising efforts, including grants as well as donations from both individuals and local businesses. In order to sustain these short-term and long-term goals, as described by the enclosed sustainability plan and budget, Inti Soccer Academy will pursue a three-phase development. In the first phase (1-2 years), it will rely heavily upon charitable donations for 57% of its funding, and the remaining revenue will be obtained from fee-related income (43%). A significant portion of these charitable donations will be drawn from the Academy’s “Sponsor a Child” program, which will allow individual donors to be matched with a needy child, and thereby fund the child’s participation in the Academy’s soccer and academic programs for the period of one year. In the second phase (2-3 years), as it expands its operations and becomes more established, the Academy will begin to draw income from grants (33%) provided by foundations (both private and public) sympathetic to the Academy’s mission. These include foundations aimed at, variously, assisting immigrant and refugee families, reducing childhood obesity rates, and prevention of teenage crime and drug use, to name just a few. In this second phase, the Academy will maintain the strength of its child-sponsorship program (21%), but will increase its reliance on its night-time leagues, tournaments, and related fees for the remaining revenue (46%). In the third phase (3+ years), Inti Soccer Academy will generate 50% of its income from sustainable revenue such as league registration fees, membership, and workshop and clinic fees, and rely on donations (18%) and grants (32%) for the remainder. In future years, Inti intends to continue this trend of increasing the proportion of its income generated from sustainable revenue, and decreasing its reliance upon grants and donations. However, the latter may always be necessary in order for the Academy to continue to fulfill its mission of serving the economically disadvantaged population of the inner-city. While this plan is subject to modification and revision as circumstances change, and as new insight is gleaned from the initial work of the Academy, the Board of Directors is confident that the enclosed plan will serve as an excellent working template for the birth and growth of Inti Soccer Academy of Manchester, Ltd.
  • 6. Inti Soccer Academy of Manchester: Mission Mission Statement: Inti Soccer Academy seeks to serve the disadvantaged youth of Manchester, NH by establishing an intensive and rigorous soccer academy, with supporting educational services, within the most distressed region of the inner-city. Why “Inti”? The name “inti” reflects the Bolivian heritage of several of the Academy’s founders, one of whom founded the famed inner-city Tahuichi Academy in Santa Cruz. The Tahuichi Academy achieved world-wide renown for giving the underprivileged youth of Bolivia the opportunity to be successful in life through soccer and life-skill training. The name Inti is the Incan word for the sun or, more specifically, for the Incan deity that is the source of light, life, understanding, vitality and growth. Inti Soccer Academy intends to brighten the lives of the children of the inner-city families that are suffering hardship. The name reflects the fact that Inti Soccer is not just “another” soccer program, but is a program designed to bring light to the darkest, most forgotten corners of the inner-city, and to enable the growth of the mind, body and spirit of Manchester’s most disadvantaged youth. Why “Soccer”? While many sports might benefit the inner-city youth, soccer has been chosen not only because it is a passion of all of the Academy’s founding members, but it is the sport best suited to the racial and ethnic make-up of the city and can serve as an appropriate vehicle for the growth and development of both troubled and well-adjusted youth. As noted below, Manchester has experienced a wave of immigrants from Latin America, Eastern Europe, and Africa, as well as from a great many other parts of the world, and most of these ethic peoples have a native passion for soccer. Whether originally from Liberia or Bosnia, Vietnam or Mexico, these inner-city Manchester families can understand and enjoy the game of soccer together. Soccer is, one might say, the lingua franca of the entire world. Why an “Academy”? As an Academy, Inti treats soccer not simply as a recreational sport, or a source of community strength, but as an art. Like piano, ballet, pottery, sculpting, archery, and any other art, soccer requires intense commitment, discipline, concentration, and practice under the tutelage of a master. In this way, Inti Soccer Academy intends to use the soccer field as a crucible in order to transform children into successful adults. The fire of determination, hard-work, and self-sacrifice that is required to master the game of soccer, in combination with a sense of teamwork and fair play, can strengthen the energy, mental focus, and character of children in such a way as to enable them to be successful in whatever endeavor they choose. Inti Soccer Academy will require its academy-level players to practice five days a week under professional soccer trainers (with one hour per day in the classroom for academic work), achieve satisfactory marks in school, practice good hygiene and diet, and demonstrate good behavior. Club-level, and apprentice participants will train at a slightly less vigorous schedule, but one that is appropriate for their age and skill-level. Coaches, trainers, and educators involved in the program will
  • 7. look after the whole person of all Inti players, as is consistent with the Academy’s mission. Why the City of Manchester, NH? As indicated below, Inti Soccer Academy intends to establish its facility and permanent base of operation within the most economically disadvantaged region of the City of Manchester.
  • 8. The plight of Manchester’s inner-city children is demonstrated by the Neighborhood Revitalization Strategy Area (NRSA) Report prepared for the City of Manchester in 2005. In accordance with Housing and Urban Development guidelines, in 2005 Manchester (population circa 109,000) designated a significant portion of its inner-city as a Neighborhood Revitalization Strategy Area, i.e., an area experiencing unusually high poverty rates, crime rates, housing problems, and serious health needs. This disadvantaged community was once designated in 1995 as a federal Enterprise Community; however, despite some successes that have come from that designation, the area has grown geographically and demographically due to what the report describes as “a new wave of urban poor immigrating into the community.” As indicated in the chart below, the number of Manchester’s residents under 18 years of age living below 100% of the poverty level has increased from 12.6 % in 1990 to 15% in 2000, and to an estimated 24.9 % in 2007. This huge increase is due in part to the nationwide economic downturn, local economic conditions (e.g., the closing or departure of major employers such as Tyson Foods), and in part to an influx of low-income families (especially families from neighboring Massachusetts who have relocated to Manchester to take advantage of the comparatively cheap housing costs). Percent of Manchester Families and Residents Living Below 100% of the Poverty Threshold, 1990, 2000 and 2007 Estimate 1990 U.S. 2000 U.S. 2007 American Census Census Community Survey All Families 6.3% 7.7% 11.9% 9.9% 12.3% 20.2% With Related Children Under 18 Years With Related Children Under 5 Years 14.3% 17.2% 25.5% Only All People 9.0% 10.6% 14.0% Under 18 Years 12.6% 15.0% 24.9% Source: Anna J. Thomas, MPH, Deputy Public Health Director,, City of Manchester Department of Health Because Manchester is a designated refugee relocation center, this new wave of immigrants includes political refugees and emigrants from foreign countries (4,500 in the period of 1995-2005)--many of them from underdeveloped nations such as Liberia, Somalia, and Sudan. Indeed, according to the U.S. Census, the foreign-born population in the City of Manchester had grown to 9.4% in year 2000, and that percentage has almost certainly increased over the last nine years. In addition to typical economic and social challenges faced by urban poor, these immigrants and refugees suffer from acute cultural assimilation difficulties.
  • 9. In the school year 2007-08, there were 16,309 school-age children in the City of Manchester, of which a full 36% were documented as economically disadvantaged (5,920 were enrolled in free/reduced cost school lunch programs).1 The Beech Street Elementary School, the district in which Inti Soccer Academy intends to base its operations, has roughly 90% of its children enrolled in free/reduced cost school lunch programs.2 A significant number of these and other disadvantaged children in Manchester are recent immigrants. One indicator of this is that the English as a Second Language Program (ESL) has a present enrollment of roughly 1500 children (roughly 9%).3 Another is that Manchester Central High School teaches students from over 60 different countries, who speak over 30 different languages. Whether it is because of this high number of immigrants for whom cultural assimilation is a serious challenge, or because of Manchester’s disproportionately high number of economically disadvantaged children, Manchester has a significantly higher drop out percentage than that of the State (Manchester’s 4-year cumulative is 17.9 %, whereas New Hampshire’s is 9.7%).4 In the inner-city, this problem is magnified, as is indicated by the following table of annual rates of percentage drop-out, post-high-school employment, and college acceptance: Inner-city Manchester State % Dropouts (07/08 SY) 5.20% 4.90% 2.50% Post HS Employment 17% 19% 17.50% College Acceptance Rate (06/07 SY) 46% 52% 53.10% Source: US Census Estimation for 2007-08 In addition to these economic and educational problems, these low-income children often live in sub- standard housing, receive inadequate nutrition, and are subject to higher rates of juvenile delinquency. Finally, it should be noted that all of Manchester’s children stand in need of an additional high- quality athletic program that is accessible and affordable. A 2005 report by the City of Manchester Department of Health found that an astonishing 39% of Manchester’s first graders were overweight, and a full 19% were obese (this was only slightly more startling than a subsequent study by the Foundation for Healthy Communities, which reported that 32.8% of New Hampshire’s children ages 6- 12 were afflicted with the same problem).5 Of course, when compared to the national averages, these Manchester statistics are not so surprising, since in 2005-06, as noted by a study published in the Journal of the American Medical Association, 30.1% of children (aged 2-19) nationwide had a body mass index (BMI) above 85% (i.e., were overweight or obese).6 All the experts agree that inactivity and poor eating habits are the main culprits here. In short, like many of our children nationwide, Manchester’s children are in dire need of our help in providing healthier exercise and dietary habits. Among other things, they need healthy, supervised spaces to play near their homes, and they need attractive physical activities in those spaces that are available to them not once a week (for an hour at a time), but every day after school, and on weekends as well. The current state of soccer in the City of Manchester is woeful. Due to their expensive fees, 1 Anna J.

  • 10. many competitive youth soccer clubs and academies in the Southern New Hampshire region remain unaffordable to the poor. Indeed, perhaps for that reason, with the exception of three older youth travel teams located across the river on the west side, all of the competitive soccer programs in the greater Manchester area are located outside the city (Seacoast, Bedford, Hooksett, Tritown, etc.), rendering them even more unreachable to the city’s poor. As for recreational soccer, the majority of the programs that do exist in the city are seasonal ones that, as it happens, are located at the geographical outskirts and therefore outside the aforementioned distressed region. Moreover, because recreational programs provide access to soccer for just one or two days a week for a couple months of the year, and rely upon volunteers and parents for coaching, they are by themselves largely ineffective in developing fundamental soccer skills or a passion for the game of soccer. In sum, Manchester’s underprivileged children, many of them immigrants or ethnicities that love the game of soccer, have virtually no access to any organized soccer, much less a program that will help them develop talent, confidence, and the ability to be successful in life. This is the mission of Inti Soccer Academy of Manchester, Ltd.
  • 11. Inti Soccer Academy of Manchester, Ltd.: Principal Objectives Dedicated to children—both male and female—Inti Soccer Academy will employ professional trainers and educators to provide multiple levels of soccer training and educational services throughout the year. From recreational soccer and club-level competitive soccer to advanced academy-level training, supplemented by academic and character development programs, the Academy will benefit city youth in numerous ways. These benefits are the principle goals of this non-profit organization: I. Teaching soccer skills from basic to advanced levels Similar to international academies such as the Tahuichi Academy in Bolivia, as well as several national programs, Inti Soccer Academy’s highest level training treats soccer as an art requiring master coaches and trainers, and the utmost dedication of its players from an early age. Mastery of soccer’s fundamental skills, techniques, tactics, and strategy, as well as good agility and excellent physical conditioning, will be required. The club-level and apprentice programs will require somewhat less commitment from the players, but will nonetheless be guided by professional trainers, and require weekly practices and clinics for competence in skills and techniques. II. Establishing habits of self-discipline, concentration, and hard-work All levels of soccer and academic training provided by Inti will require players to learn to focus their time, energy and attention on development of their bodies and minds in order to achieve success on the field and in the classroom. As with any discipline, good character is a prerequisite for success. As a result, all of Inti Soccer Academy’s employees and personnel will model good behavior and, with regard to the players themselves, provide care and attention for the whole person, i.e., the development of his or her body, mind and spirit. III. Building confidence and self-esteem in disadvantaged youth Soccer is a sport that demands team-work and skill. As children gain talent and experience playing soccer with one another, no matter how distressed their background, they will gain confidence, self-esteem, and a sense of trustworthiness. This will positively affect their work in school, their home life, and their pursuit of jobs and careers. IV. Providing healthy athletic and fitness activity to counteract childhood obesity
  • 12. Because of the variety of types of soccer activity offered by Inti after school, during the evenings, on weekends, over holidays, and during the summer, the inner-city children of Manchester who participate in the Academy’s programs will be involved in healthy physical exercise on a daily basis, and year-round. This consistency is essential for the Academy’s success in teaching soccer, but also for developing healthy life-long exercise habits in today’s youth. V. Assisting immigrant and refugee children, and their families, with their integration into the Manchester community. By providing many levels of soccer and educational training activities that will attract inner- and outer-city children, Inti will provide Manchester with a healthy resource to divert its otherwise troubled youths from destructive patterns of behavior, improve the community’s quality of life, and introduce Manchester’s urban youths to their suburban peers. By welcoming mothers and fathers to its adult recreational soccer as well, Inti will strengthen families, and will help integrate the different races, ethnicities, and socio-economic classes of the greater Manchester region.

  • 18. Inti Soccer Academy of Manchester, Ltd.: Program Outline Soccer Program Inti will provide a variety of levels of soccer activity and training to the children of Manchester, from recreational level to elite “academy” level training. 1. Academy-level Training: Phase 1: Estimated total # of participants in Academy-level Training= 55 children • Apprentice program (U-7 boys and girls) • Apprentice program (U-9 boys and girls) • Academy program (U-10 boys) • Academy program (U-10 girls) • Academy program (U-12 boys) • Academy program (U-12 girls) Since this is Inti Soccer Academy’s first year, and its Directors wish to exercise caution that the Academy does not overextend itself, the focus will be on children ages 12 and under in the Academy’s elite program. Allowing for a slightly less demanding schedule for the young children in the Apprentice program, the Academy program will require training five days a week, and will include skill clinics, technical training, tactical training, and controlled scrimmages, among other things. This cohort of children will continue to be trained in 2010 and beyond, so that eventually, the Academy program will expand to include older children: Phases 2 and 3: Estimated total # of participants in Academy-level Training= 180 children • Apprentice program (U-7 boys and girls) • Apprentice program (U-9 boys and girls) • Academy program (U-10 boys) • Academy program (U-10 girls) • Academy program (U-12 boys) • Academy program (U-12 girls) • Academy program (U14 boys) • Academy program (U14 girls) • Academy program (U16 boys) • Academy program (U16 girls) • Academy program (U18 boys) • Academy program (U18 girls) 2. Club- level Training and Competition: Phase 1: Estimated total # of participants in Club-level Training and Competition (including Academy-level players)=72 children
  • 19. Club-level travel teams (U 10 boys and girls) • Club-level travel teams (U 11 boys and girls) • Club-level travel teams (U 12 boys and girls) In this first year, again in order to focus its resources, Inti Academy will only field competitive co-ed club level teams at the U 10, U 11, and U 12 age groups. It remains possible that higher age group teams will be fielded even at this early stage, should the demand arise. These teams will include both players training at the Academy-level, and players who aspire to do so, but have yet to reach the level of dedication required for that training. In general, the club-level travel teams that are to be formed in this first phase of the Academy remain to be determined, depending on the overall number of children enrolled in the Academy this year, and the concentrations of children at the various age-brackets. At its full maturity, Inti Soccer Academy will train and field multiple club-level teams at all age groups from U-10 to U-17: Phase 2: Estimated total # of participants in Club-level Training and Competition (including Academy-level players)= 384 children • Club-level travel teams (U 10 boys) • Club-level travel teams (U 10 girls) • Club-level travel teams (U 11 boys) • Club-level travel teams (U 11 girls) • Club-level travel teams (U 12 boys) • Club-level travel teams (U 12 girls) • Club-level travel teams (U 13 boys) • Club-level travel teams (U 13 girls) • Club-level travel teams (U 14 boys) • Club-level travel teams (U 14 girls) • Club-level travel teams (U 16 boys) • Club-level travel teams (U 16 girls) • Club-level travel teams (U 17 boys) • Club-level travel teams (U 17 girls) 3. Recreational Soccer Program: Phase 1: Estimated total # of participants in Recreational Soccer=150 children • Summer camp (6 weeks) • “Street soccer” (3v3) tournaments (once per month) • Supervised “pick-up” games (once per week) In Phase 1, the recreational program will focus on providing young children in the inner-city with the opportunity to play soccer for pure enjoyment, with some limited training mixed in. The summer soccer camps will provide inner-city youths with a healthy way to spend their day; the street soccer tournaments (played with a futsal ball) will be a monthly source of
  • 20. passion and anticipation; and the supervised “pick-up” games will present just a wholesome activity for after-school hours. Eventually, the recreational program will expand to include pick-up soccer four days a week, adult evening leagues, and skill clinics open to any and all recreational players who are interested in improving their game. Phases 2 and 3: Estimated total # of participants in Recreational Soccer=600 • Summer (6 weeks) and spring (1 week) camps, • “Street soccer” (3v3) tournaments (once per month) • Supervised “pick-up” games (four times per week) • Adult night leagues (4 times per week). 4. Coaching Education and Training: Phase 1: Estimated total # of participants in Coaching Education=45 coaches • Summer Coaching Workshop (14 hours) In addition to soccer training and activity, Inti will provide soccer coaching courses consisting of an on-going series of training sessions and exercises designed to inform and educate coaches on coaching styles and methodologies. Inti Soccer Academy’s experienced and internationally renowned staff will also conduct extensive conferences, workshops, and soccer symposiums for coaches, soccer players and referees. Phases 2 and 3: Estimated total # of participants in Coaching Education= 400 coaches • Summer Coaching Workshop (14 hours) • Fall Coaching Workshop (14 hours) • Winter Coaching Workshop (14 hours) • Spring Coaching Workshop (14 hours) • Monthly Coaching Clinics on Specialized Topics (3 hours each) • Annual National Coaching Conference • Annual Urban Soccer Collaborative Symposium 5. Pre-season Training for Local Club Teams, High-Schools, and Colleges Phases 2 and 3: Estimated total # of participants in Pre-season Training= 120 players Lastly, Inti provides professional pre-season training opportunities for colleges, high-schools and club teams that might be interested. Phase 1: Total # of Participants=267 Phase 2: Total # of Participants=800 Phase 3: Total # of Participants=1500
  • 21. Education Program Inti Soccer Academy will partner with local educational institutions--elementary and secondary institutions, high-schools, and colleges and universities, as well as volunteer groups--to assist Academy children in their academic work and intellectual development. 1. Week-day Homework Sessions: Phase 1: Estimated total # of participants in Homework Sessions = 60 children These week-day one hour homework sessions, staffed by qualified volunteers from local educational institutions, and staff from Inti Soccer Academy, will be required for all children participating in Academy-level training, and optional for all other children at Inti Soccer Academy. Eventually, as the numbers of children in the program increase, the sessions will be staggered in the afternoon and early evening to reduce the need for additional space and staffing. Phases 2 and 3: Estimated total # of participants in Homework Sessions = 250 children 2. Specialized Tutoring Services: Phases 2 and 3: Estimated total # of participants in Tutoring Program= 50 children In addition to monitored homework sessions, Inti Soccer Academy will provide special tutoring services for those students suffering more serious deficiencies in their academic work. These tutors will be drawn from qualified local volunteers, and staff of Inti Soccer Academy. 3. English as a Second Language (ESL) Courses Phases 2 and 3: Estimated total # of participants in ESL Program= 25 children These ESL classes will be provided for foreign-born Academy participants in desperate need of improving their English language skills. Provided in collaboration with the ESL program in the Manchester Public Schools, these ESL courses will be taught by qualified volunteers and Inti staff. 4. Academic Summer Program. Phases 2 and 3: Estimated total # of participants in Summer Program= 25 children These week-long special summer academic workshops, on such topics as writing, story- telling, and literature, will be offered by Inti Soccer Academy to all participants in the Academy. The purpose of these workshops will be to enhance the intellectual and academic abilities of participating children.
  • 22. 5. Humanities Program at Inti Soccer Academy: Phases 2 and 3: Estimated total # of participants in Humanities Program= 25 children This innovative program will provide cultural opportunities for children in the Academy. It will consist of special discussions of important figures in world history, age-appropriate readings and discussions about important ideas, persons, and events; bus-trips to local museums; musical appreciation; and viewing important age-appropriate videos and films. This program will be run in collaboration with potential partners such as the NH Humanities Council, and Saint Anselm College’s Humanities Program (Portraits of Human Greatness).

  • 26. Inti Soccer Academy of Manchester, Ltd.: Financial Sustainability Overview The table below depicts Inti Soccer Academy’s financial plan overview. The three phases indicated below are identified by the relative distribution of funding sources, with the goal of long-term sustainability guiding the plan. Initially, Inti will rely heavily upon donations for 57% of its income, and sustainable revenue for the remaining 43%. In the second (mid-term) phase, grants will become a significant source of income, representing 33% of income, while reliance upon donations will diminish to 21% of income (and sustainable revenue will increase to 46% of income). Once Inti is able to generate 50% of its funding from programmatic revenue (leagues, membership, workshop and clinic fees ) it will have reached its third -phase funding goal. In future years, the goal is to continue increasing the percentage of income generated from programmatic fees by 3-5% per year, and to reduce the Academy’s reliance upon grants and donations. The table below depicts the funding goals in broad outline.

  • 27. Sponsors, Partners, and Grantors “Sponsor a Child” Program: Building Futures, One Life at a Time As indicated above, many of the inner-city children that Inti Academy serves are economically disadvantaged, and often come from distressed living environments. With but a little support from the community, these children will be able to avail themselves of the Academy’s wholesome environment of soccer training, academic support, and character development. For this reason, Inti offers people who want to make a difference--one life at a time--the opportunity to sponsor an individual child at a cost of $1000 per year. These funds will enable the child in question to participate in Inti’s soccer training on a daily basis throughout the year, including recreational, club-level, and (if qualified) academy- level training, as well as weekend tournaments and special clinics. It will also allow the child to participate in Inti’s Summer Soccer Camps throughout the entire summer, when the child might otherwise be left on his or her own. Finally, it will also support the child’s participation in the academic programs of the Academy, including homework sessions, specialized tutoring assistance, English as a Second Language classes, the Summer Academic workshop, and the Academy’s Humanities Program. The value of these services, independently, costs $1800. The breakdown is provided below: Spring Training (including supporting academic services): $300 Summer Camps: $750 (5 weeks @ $150/week) Summer Academic Workshop: $150 Fall Training (including supporting academic services): $300 Winter Training $300 Upon agreeing to sponsor an individual child, the sponsor will be provided with a biography of the child whom he or she is supporting, and periodic updates of the child’s soccer and academic progress. In turn, the child will receive some basic information (at the sponsor’s discretion) about his or her sponsor. It is the Academy’s hope that this program will attract the support not only of local Manchester residents, but potential sponsors outside of the Manchester area, including professional soccer players who might understand the value of Inti Academy’s program. Corporate Sponsors: In addition to these individual sponsors, local, regional, and national businesses, including restaurants, retail outlets, sporting goods manufacturers, and banks, will be contacted for purposes of sponsoring the Academy’s camps, tournaments, training clinics, and educational services.

Inti Soccer Academy of Manchester, Ltd.: Measurements of Success The success of Inti Soccer Academy will be measured in several ways that vary according to the specific objectives of the Academy laid out above. I. Teaching soccer skills from basic to advanced levels Measurements: 1. How many children are enrolled in the Academy’s soccer programs in Phases I, II, and III? Quality programs attract participants. Therefore, one measure of our success is that the recreational, apprentice, club-level, and elite academy training programs become increasingly popular in the Academy’s first three years. For example, the Academy expects roughly a 200% overall increase in its number of Academy-level participants from Phase 1 to Phase 3, a 300% increase in its recreational program participants, and a 400% increase in its Club-level participants in that same period: Phase 1 Phase 2 Phase 3 (years 1-2) (years 2-3) (years 3+) Academy-level Training 55 110 180 Participants Recreational Program 150 375 600 Participants Club-level Team 72 225 384 Participants % Increase of number of 150% 320% participants 2. Who are Inti Soccer Academy’s partners? An old axiom states that one can measure a person by his or her friends. In this case, one can measure the quality of a soccer program by the quality of its soccer partners. In the course of its first three years of operation, Inti intends to deepen and strengthen its already-existing partnerships and

All of the aforementioned are soccer programs of the highest quality, and their association with Inti Soccer will be an indicator of its strength as a soccer academy. 3. Have any Academy players obtained college scholarships? While Inti Soccer Academy hesitates to raise the expectations of any individual Academy players with regard to their prospects for College scholarships, the Academy will measure the success of its elite training regimen (in part) by the ability of its graduates to secure full or partial athletic scholarships to colleges and universities. II. Establishing habits of self-discipline, concentration, and hard- work III. Building confidence and self-esteem in disadvantaged youth Measurements: 1. How well is Inti Soccer helping its participants to achieve success in their educational and career pursuits? Both the soccer and educational programs of the Academy are aimed at transforming the whole person—mind, body and spirit. Several benchmark of Inti’s success in this regard lie in reducing the number of high-school drop-outs among its participants, and increasing both the numbers of those who secure employment after school, as well as those who are accepted to colleges and universities. These important goals require a longer time frame for both achievement and assessment: Service 4 year 8 year 12 year Manchester State Area Projection projection projection % Dropouts (07/08 SY) 5.20% 4.90% 2.50% 5% 3.50% 2% Post HS Employment 17% 19% 17.50% 17.50% 18.50% 20% College Acceptance 46% 52% 53.10% 50% 52% 54% Rate (06/07 SY) Assumptions: US Census Tracts 12, 14, 15, 17, 18, & 19 Sources: NH Department of Education; 2000 US Census; NH Bureau of Labor & Statistics
  • 32. The “Service Area” in the above chart represents the 6 Hillsborough County Census tracts that constitutes the “inner-city” population of Manchester. The projections for Years 4, 8, and 12 speak to the years of operation for Inti. Four years into Inti's existence it is expected that no more than 5% of the Academy's members will drop out of High School; by Year Eight that number will be reduced to 3.5%; and by Year 12 it will be reduced further still to 2%. Note that Year Four's goal of no more than 5% is better than the current drop out rate of the Service Area, and the Year 12 projection is better than that of the State of NH as a whole. Post-High School employment is a viable alternative for adolescents who may not be suited for college. Inti's goal for Year Four is to have 17.5% of its members who are not interested in college placed in a steady job (noting that this goal is better than the Service Area's current average); by Year 8, 18.5% employment; and 20% by Year 12 (this goal exceeds that of the State's average). The Service Area's current college acceptance rate is 46%. Inti's goal is that by Year Four, 50% of the Academy's members will be accepted to college; by Year 8, 52% (equal to the current Manchester average); and by Year 12 there will be a 54% college acceptance rate (greater than the State's average). IV. Providing healthy athletic and fitness activity to counteract childhood obesity Measurements: 1. How well is Inti Soccer helping Manchester children to avoid obesity? Short of periodically weighing its participants on a scale, it will be difficult to measure the success of the Academy in obtaining this objective. However, because of the variety of types of soccer activity offered by Inti after school, during the evenings, on weekends, over holidays, and during the summer, the children of Manchester who participate in the Academy’s programs will be involved in healthy physical exercise on a daily basis, and year-round. It is expected that in the fourth year of operation, roughly 1000 Manchester children will be regular participants in the Academy’s activities, which translates into roughly 6% of Manchester’s population of school-age children. In this way, it is to be expected that Inti Soccer Academy will help to reduce the percentage of overweight and obese children in Manchester
  • 33. (32.8% aged 6-12 in 2005) in a statistically significant manner. V. Assisting immigrant and refugee children, and their families, with their integration into the Manchester community. Measurements: 1. How many suburban children is the Academy attracting to its urban program? By providing many levels of soccer and educational training activities that will attract inner- and outer-city children and adults, Inti Soccer Academy will provide Manchester’s urban and suburban children, as well as their parents (in the adult recreational programs), opportunities to interact with one another. The Academy expects that as the reputation of its recreational program, camps, clinics, and training programs grow, more and more suburban children and adults will be attracted to the Academy. In the first phase of operation, the target is for suburban children and adults to constitute 10% of the Academy’s participants; in the second phase, 20%; and in the third phase, 30% of its participants: Phase 1 Phase 2 Phase 3 (years 1-2) (years 2-3) (years 3+) # of Urban Children and 240 640 1050 Adults # of Suburban Children and 27 160 450 Adults Total # of 267 800 1500 Participants
