Sacramento Republic FC News Release
This July, hundreds of players representing over 70 countries will gather in Sacramento for the 2023 Homeless World Cup. Hosted by Sacramento State and Street Soccer USA, the tournament is a unique and pioneering tournament that uses soccer to inspire and demonstrate the power of sport in changing people's lives.

To make this year's an impactful and memorable experience for all, the Homeless World Cup Foundation, Street Soccer USA, and Sacramento State are calling on soccer lovers to serve as volunteers.
