Located on the grounds of Clarendon Elementary School, the Mini-Pitch System transforms an existing play area into a dedicated space for soccer and recreation. Featuring new goals, fencing, benches and LED lighting, the field will support student wellness while also providing opportunities for community use outside of school hours.
“Soccer has shaped my life in countless ways, and I’ve seen firsthand how access to the game can build confidence, support well-being and create a sense of community,” said Alex Morgan. “Having accessible places to play gives kids the opportunity to be active, build friendships and feel like they belong. I’m proud that, together with my foundation, we’re working with CVS Health to bring those opportunities to more young people and families in Secaucus.”
“I am so very thankful to the Alex Morgan Foundation, CVS Health and all of their partners that gave so generously to ensure the Town of Secaucus was able to be the beneficiary of the mini-pitch”, said Michael Gonnelli, Mayor of Secaucus. “I have no doubt the mini-pitch will be in constant use and will continue to foster a love for soccer and lead to the continued growth of our soccer programs town-wide.”
“Our mission is to create equity and opportunity for girls and women on the field and off,” said Laura Wolf Stein, Executive Director, Alex Morgan Foundation. “This mini-pitch furthers our impact in two of our focus areas, sports equity and opportunities for girls, by giving more young people in Secaucus a place to play and gain confidence.”
The mini-pitch was officially unveiled on October 26 during a celebration featuring students, school leaders, community partners, and representatives from CVS Health, the Alex Morgan Foundation and the U.S. Soccer Foundation. The event included a ribbon-cutting ceremony and youth soccer activities giving students the opportunity to be among the first to use the new field.
The Clarendon Elementary location marks the next chapter of CVS Health’s multi-year field revitalization commitment, which includes previously announced multi-use field redevelopment projects at Garfield Park Bridge Spot in Washington, D.C, Foreign Language Academy in Kansas City, Missouri, Orchard Elementary School in Vancouver, Washington, and Pantera Park in Diamond Bar, California.
