LAKELAND - Students throughout Polk County will spend some of their time in the coming weeks reading and studying hard in the hopes of seeing the Florida Tropics SC in person during the 2018-19 Major Arena Soccer League season.

The Tropics, along with SunCoast Federal Credit Union, will be sponsors the team's second annual GOAL program this year, which rewards students in all grade levels with free tickets to a regular season game of their choice.

GOAL stands for Growing Outstanding Academic Leaders. More than 40 Polk County schools will receive their program materials this week, meaning students can start going to work to earn their tickets for the Tropics season opener on Saturday, Dec. 1 when they host South Central division rival St. Louis Ambush in a7:05 kickoff at the RP Fudning Center in Lakeland.

In fact, at some schools, youngsters have already met their goals and gotten their rewards. Program ticket vouchers can been redeemed at the arena box office up until kickoff any game day, with the home season running through early April.

Each school can decide how best to use the program to their advantage. Most elementary schools use it as a reading incentive, and students receive Tropics bookmarks to log their progress. At higher levels, schools use GOAL to reward "A" and "B" report card grades. Once a particular goal is attained, students earn a voucher good for two free Tropics tickets to the game of their choosing.

"We are thrilled to partner with Suncoast Credit Union for this community initiative. From day one, we've always said that making the Tropics a community asset both on and off the pitch was a priority for us, and programs like GOAL reinforce that commitment," Tropics CEO Dr. Panos Iakovidis said.
