The Premier Indoor Training and Community Hub
The PITCH
Providing equitable access to youth sports and academic services in the Twin Cities
Get to Know Us
Twin Cities Children's Recreational Opportunities and Student Services (TC CROSS) is a 501(c)(3) organization dedicated to empowering youth through engaging sports programs and free academic support services through the creation of The Premier Indoor Training and Community Hub, or The PITCH.
The PITCH is a community center with a free after-school program to not only be a resource for academic help but be a safe space for youth to create lasting relationships and realize their education now can alter and shape their future. Along with the academic services, The PITCH will have athletic field space to not only promote physical health and wellness, but also give opportunities for the youth to learn life-skills on the field as well, such as teamwork, confidence, and social responsibility.
Our Services
1
Academic After-School Program
TC CROSS will offer a free daily academic after-school program for youth in the community. Through homework help, our goal is to be a place where children can connect learning with fulfillment. Students will also recognize their passions and be supported as they seek to create a path for success. These services will be offered daily Monday-Friday at our community center.
2
Free Youth Pick-Up Soccer
TC CROSS will host free pick-up soccer to the community. This eliminates all financial barriers for the youth to play soccer and creates a place to have physical activity, especially during the winter months, and have positive effects on youths’ mental and emotional well-being as well. The fields will be available during the afternoons Monday-Friday as well as special days throughout the year, such as academic breaks (winter/spring break) and other holidays.
3
Athletic Field Rentals
TC CROSS will offer athletic fields rental times to local clubs, schools, or even groups of friends at a reduced cost compared to all other athletic fields in the Twin Cities. Priority for rentals will be given to organizations/schools that are serving underrepresented communities with a similar tax exempt purpose to TC CROSS’s to ensure the heart and vision stay intact. The fields would be available for rent during the evenings Monday-Friday as well as all day Saturday and Sunday.
