Cavalry FC is committed to fostering a love for soccer while making a meaningful impact in our community.

Through our initiatives, we inspire youth to stay active, promote inclusivity, and create opportunities for engagement with the sport.

Beyond the sport, we recognize our platform as a force for good, partnering with the Spruce Meadows Leg Up Foundation and other local organizations to give back, support meaningful causes, and create a lasting positive impact in our community.

The Spruce Meadows Leg Up Foundation is the official charitable arm of Spruce Meadows. Established in 2015, the Foundation was created to give back to the community that has supported Spruce Meadows for nearly five decades. The mission of the Foundation is to help foster a thriving, inclusive community through meaningful partnerships and support.

Guided by its five pillars:

• Education
• Health & Wellness
• Community
• Amateur & Grassroots Sports, and
• Agriculture

The Leg Up Foundation has donated more than $2 million to local organizations whose work reflects these shared values.

Each year, the Foundation welcomes hundreds of elementary students to Spruce Meadows through the longstanding School Tours program, an initiative that has introduced young learners to agriculture and sport for more than 50 years. It is one of many ways the Foundation connects with the community and invests in its future.

At Cavalry FC, we believe everyone deserves the chance to experience the power of sport and physical wellness. That's why we created the Kick It Forward program — a community donation initiative designed to support vulnerable children and families. 

Through this program, Cavalry FC proudly donates tickets to matches and camp registrations, ensuring more youth have the opportunity to stay active, build friendships, and enjoy the beautiful game.  

Thanks to the generosity of our incredible sponsors, we're able to make this vision a reality.
