Just One Neighborhood Program

It is the Just One Soccer League's mission to bring families together to promote and teach leadership skills and the value of community service to Newark's youth through participation in an organized soccer league.

Our goal is to transform our community by providing a safe and supportive space where children can develop into the leaders of tomorrow.

Urban families face unique challenges that are magnified in difficult economic times. Founded in 1996, Just One Soccer League (JOSL) is a recreational sport league providing a low cost option where community, friendship, togetherness, teamwork, and respect become powerful tools toward avoiding the challenges facing our community. Just One Neighborhood Program (JONP) supports our children by providing a safe environment that instills a sense of self, of belonging, where quality relationships instill pride and increase their capacity to succeed.
