OMAHA, Nebr. (November 12, 2019) – Union Omaha is pleased to announce that the Nebraska State Soccer Assocation (NSSA) will be the “Official Youth Soccer Partner” for the inaugural professional soccer season in 2020. As part of the partnership, Tranquility Soccer Complex will become a key outdoor training facility for Union Omaha. Recently, Union Omaha used the Tranquility Soccer Complex for their Open Tryout on November 9th.

“Union Omaha is incredibly excited to partner with the Nebraska State Soccer Association to support their youth soccer development efforts moving forward,” said Union Omaha COO Matt Homonoff. “We take our mission to both celebrate the game and educate fans across Nebraska to heart. Supporting the NSSA’s programming and showcasing our professional players as role models for the next generation of local talent will help us succeed in that mission.”

The Nebraska State Soccer Association represents over 25,000 youth and adult soccer players, 3,000 coaches, 800 referees and 500 administrators throughout the State of Nebraska. NSSA is one of the few state associations that handle both youth and adult programs which allows members of all ages to work together statewide for the same vision, mission and values.

“Nebraska State Soccer is proud to support and partner with Union Omaha,” said Casey Mann, Executive Director of the Nebraska State Soccer Association. “This is an exciting time for soccer in this community and Union Omaha’s commitment to soccer in the community made it an obvious reason for us to partner with them. There are so many exciting possibilities to pursue within this partnership and we look forward to working with Matt, Jay (Mims) and the entire organization to grow the game in Nebraska.”
