We will transform the SAP Next-Gen’s breathtaking event space on the 48th floor into a skyhigh football pitch overlooking Manhattan. Alongside the games we will feature panel discussions and a photo exhibition sharing the team’s actions and Goals.

Dear 2019 NYC GGWCUP Participants & Attendees

Bring a new sports bra to GGWCUP and share your love of the game with an aspiring athlete!

The Sports Bra Project is excited to take action for the SDGs as part of the GGWCUP Finals in NYC.

Since 2017, The Sports Bra Project has distributed more than 3,000 new sports bras to 23 different organizations operating in 18 countries, including the U.S.

New York-based founder, Sarah Dwyer-Shick, will be playing on the San Diego Soccer Women Team for Global Goal 10: Inclusion and Equality for all Ages and Genders.

One sports bra = One more opportunity to play!

• Request sports bras for your GGWCUP players, an affiliate organization or community of girls and/or women in need. (Email Sarah before September 24th)
