In this episode, we chat with Filip Handl, Sacramento Republic FC’s Manager of Youth Soccer Programming, about the incredible work being done with the Sac Republic Unified team — a squad that brings athletes with and without intellectual disabilities together. The Unified program is all about friendship, teamwork, and inclusion, and it continues to grow nationwide with MLS and USL clubs helping lead the way.
We also dive into Republic FC’s 2-0 win on the road at New Mexico, look ahead to a huge clash with the Tampa Bay Rowdies — where Coach Collins returns to a club he once played for and coached — plus go over this week’s Podcast Winner Dinner results and more!
