Help RED Academy Build Its First Permanent Indoor Soccer Facility!

RED Academy of Soccer is on the verge of something BIG — and we need your support to make it happen.

The Vision

RED is the vision of Academy Director, Peter Mackie, who brings over **30 years of coaching experience and a deep commitment to youth development. Since launching in 2017, RED Academy has become a trusted name in the Ontario soccer community — offering professional coaching, technical development, and mentorship for boys and girls aged 6+.

We’re proud members of Canada Soccer and Ontario Soccer, competing in the **Southwest Soccer region**, and providing a safe, inclusive, and challenging environment for young athletes to grow — both on and off the field.

The Opportunity

After years of dreaming and planning, RED Academy has finally found a facility that could become our permanent indoor training home.

This space would allow our players to:

* ⚽ Train year-round in a safe, professional environment

* ️ Avoid harsh winter driving conditions (no more long nights at Marden or awkward 4pm starts at RIM)

* Continue to grow technically, mentally, and physically at the highest level

But to make this facility the home our players deserve, we need one crucial piece:

The Turf

We are fundraising to install a top-quality turf system that meets professional standards for:

✅ Player safety

✅ Long-term durability

✅ High-performance development

This isn’t just about turf — it’s about building the foundation for RED Academy’s future.

Our Goal

We’re looking to raise between $100,000 and $150,000 to bring this dream to life.

With your help, we can transform this facility into a true home for RED — a place where kids can chase their dreams, grow with confidence, and develop into the players and people they’re meant to be.

Why It Matters

This initiative is for:

Every donation, every share, and every word of encouragement brings us closer to making this dream a reality.

Join Us

Help us build something lasting. Something RED.

Together, we can create a space where players don’t just train — they thrive.
