TRAIN. PIPELINE. POWER.

The Taylor Made Futbol Initiative (TMFI) was established to bring high-quality soccer training and technical expertise to underprivileged inner cities in the Southeast United States.

Founded by Barrett Green, a former NFL Linebacker who wanted a different lifestyle for his son, TMFI was created in honor of one of his best friends, Sean Taylor, who tragically lost his life defending his family against a home invasion. Barrett brings lessons learned from professional sports, and exposure to the highest levels of youth soccer, to inner cities in the U.S.

By utilizing the game of soccer and its associated virtues, the Taylor Made Futbol Initiative offers a unique educational pathway that equips individuals for success in life. TMFI endeavors to provide inner-city youth in the Southeast with opportunities to pursue college scholarships both domestically and internationally through professional soccer leagues such as La Liga, Bundesliga, Serie A, and MLS.

The comprehensive TMFI program incorporates various aspects of youth development including nutrition, academics, behavior, and psycho-social elements. With a primary focus on development rather than competition, the TMFI has enlisted Professional American Football Players (Ambassadors) who have established relationships within their respective communities, to actively engage and rally youth participation.
