America SCORES

Every Poet-Athlete in our program discovers something powerful: they already have everything they need to lead.

You see it everywhere — kids stepping up as team captains, sharing their poetry at open mics, rallying their friends for service projects. This is what happens when Poet-Athletes know their voices matter.

At America SCORES, we create the spaces where leadership can grow. Because when young people believe in themselves, they inspire everyone around them to do the same. 👑

Hi, we're America SCORES! 👋

We're a movement that's been empowering young people across North America for 30 years. From our foundations in 1994 at a single D.C. school to now serving thousands of Poet-Athletes in 13 cities, we've stayed true to our mission: combining soccer, poetry, and service-learning to empower youth to lead healthy lives, engage deeply in school, and develop the confidence to make a difference in their communities.
