Our Story
It all started one sunny Saturday morning in Southern California at the kitchen table. A father, who was also a sports illustrator, and his 7 year old soccer-loving-daughter teamed up to draw and color cards, invitations and games for her upcoming soccer themed birthday party. That fun day - creating, drawing, expressing gratitude through art and special time together - was the beginning of Play Strong® Sports.
