Community Cleats FAQ
How did Community Cleats start?
Community Cleats started when six of us student-athletes realized that the extra cleats sitting in our closets could be the key to getting another kid out on the field. We know how expensive cleats can get, and we didn’t want a price tag to keep anyone from joining a team. To get the donated cleats ready for the field, we teamed up with Fresh Clean Kicks, who helps us deep-clean and refresh them as much as possible so they’re ready for game day. We’re just a group of students who love our community and sports, and we’re working together to make sure every kid gets a fair chance to play!
